Besides the All-in-One, the new range has something for everyone combined with the trusted and reliable Lenovo service and support tag, making it an irresistible buy," said Amar Babu, MD, Lenovo India.

On Lenovo's India focus, Babu added: "A significant part of our business focus will be on growing consumers in critical markets such as India. Our priority is to streamline operations to drive down cost, improve time-to-market, and offer consumers innovative and affordable PCs across a full range portfolio from value to mainstream and premium."

Commenting on the announcement, Rajan Anandan, MD, Microsoft India said, "Microsoft's Windows strategy focuses on enhancing the user experience through productivity, ease and optimization. Lenovo, with its brand equity, partner community and product range is a key partner in delivering this promise to the Indian customer. We are delighted to partner with Lenovo to support the expansion of their product line up. Now, a vast range of customers across segments will be able to experience the combined value of Lenovo's brand promise with Microsoft's software prowess."

According to Prakash Bagri, Director – Marketing, Intel South Asia, "When we introduced Intel Centrino six years ago, Intel changed the computing landscape with our mobile innovations. Now, simply said, we have improved virtually all aspects of Intel-based notebooks, making it the most popular and fastest growing computing market segment in the world. The various new notebooks and desktops from Lenovo, based on Intel platforms, span virtually every category of mobile computing, offering consumers a greater choice than even before."

At today's multi-product launch, Lenovo also indicated collective strategic actions it will implement to enable further growth in India. Backed by a new global structure that focuses on both emerging markets and mature markets to serve its customers better, Lenovo India's go-to-market strategy has also been streamlined to extend its reach into tier-2, tier-3 and tier-4 cities, leverage its retail network more effectively in major cities and empower its business partners.
