Design.
Lenovo Ideapad Y480, this is the screen size 14-inch Notebook, it is the middle class when compared to other brands, it is not over big and it is not small. The design was developed to be slightly away from Y470. The material was changed--from the tires then is no rubber pad that is to support even magnesium. It may be better design and stronger but it comes with fingerprints is very simple. The back cover is designed simply to feel strong at work. The metal used is a mixture Aulminum, allows for non-slip grip slip. Observed can be seen from Fig, I try to wipe it out, but it was very difficult actually.
The assembly, I can honestly say that Y Series is to be compared with the ASUS N-Series. Its good assembly, great!
For interior design, it is a rather dark color.The color of the machine, it has only a single color like Black Metalic colors. The materials are durable, made of metal. The assembly is secure nearly flat homogeneous area under the plastic.

Conclusion.
Lenovo Ideapad Y480 comes with Intel Core i7-3610QM with the graphics card is an Nvidia Geforce GT 640m LE makes the gaming experience that is second to none [this would be the same level as the GT 635M or the GT 555M]. I tell you frankly that the Driver is a real problem, would have to wait Driver updates again. The other feature, Lenovo came out very well; elegant design, ideal for users of all levels, JBL speakers, the sound of the powerful. Materials that look good, strong, durable, which also comes with a specification of which is the highest compared to other brands.
In my opinion, I think that Z580 is better because it is latest and comes with GT 640M (not LM) including 15.6 inch screen. I'm a little surprised that Lenovo's Web site showed new price is $469.00 from $849.00, i know as you know, the specifications and prices are subject to change based on the needs of distributors in each country. If I were you, I would choose Z580 the new one.
