In newegg.com page details for this netbook says 3.21lbs,ASUS page http://www.asus.com/Eee/Eee_PC/Eee_PC_1215B/#specifications says 1.45kgs with 6cell battery (3.2 lbs)I think amazon has it wrong

No, the mac book air doesn't feel any heavier at all. All of the portals are exposed so you can plug anything into the lap top while the cover is on it.

I have one. It doesn't weigh more than 12 lbs. Are you concerned that it might weigh more?

It weighs about 2 pounds. Because if the screen size and full key board, it might not be the best buy if you travel with it a lot.

C'mon, don't be lazy. You can find the weight in Lenovo webpage. I think it was around 3-4 pounds. In practice it feels heavy compared to other ultra books. It feels solid too.

It's pretty sturdy. You can use a laptop with no worries. I wouldn't put 100 lbs on it, but it's not fragile

Approximately 2 pounds. I did not think my husband would like it cause it did not fit his computer with its case ( smaller than I thought) but he absolutely loves it. I know more information than you asked for, but wanted to share it with you.

lol i dont have a scale to put it on to tell you exactly, the surface of the lid and around the around the keyboard is aluminum which is heaver than plastic so i would consider that added weight to be a plus sense aluminum is stronger than plastic it gives it a premium feel. you can get this same laptop with a 15 inch screen and im sure it will be a little lighter. it seems to me like it would be inconvenient to take with you to work or school as its quite large. i just use it at home and i dont travel with.

It's a good 3-5 pounds I would say. It's a good amount of weight so that the keyboard doesn't move around while you're typing or playing games which I love! :)

It weighs 3.2 lbs, I love this little laptop! The lightest and fastest laptop I've ever owned!

about 10-12 lbs, (guess), in a large backpack yes. This is a very robust and heavy set-up. Great for field work, but not for hualing around in a backpack. It provides a very stable platform, and holds the computer tight.

It must be a mistake but I am not positive. It feels like it weighs 5 lbs or less. It is pretty skinny for such a large monitor. It is almost an ultra laptop

I had the exact same thought. I combed through the product description and it says this: "Weighs only 2.7 lbs. and measures just 0.6" thin For lightweight portability." So this is actually a VERY portable device. I'm actually thinking of getting this because it has everything I need (64GB SSD, no CD drive, good battery life, and a decent keyboard. Edit: UGH the software ruins this for me. Specs are A+ around the board until I realize that it's Windows RT, meaning that you can only install apps from the Windows Store, and you can't install desktop programs (that would work on a Windows 7 laptop, for instance).

It is 5.3 pounds. The extra weight might include packaging and the charger and all that but the laptop itself is 5.3 pounds.

I think you were looking at the "shipping weight". The Laptop itself is incredibly light, and tho' I have not weighed it to test the validity, I believe the 3.2Lbs is proper.
