Lenovo ThinkPad X220

Lenovo's X-series laptops have always been high-end ultraportable machines for business travelers who need to work on the go with a minimum amount of compromise. The X220 continues this tradition and adds a few new twists at the same time.
Pros:
  • Classic ThinkPad design in a compact package
  • amazing battery life
  • and the latest Intel processors make the Lenovo ThinkPad X220 a standout travel laptop
Cons:
  • The touch-pad-pointing-stick combo remains an awkward compromise
  • and as with most ThinkPads you're paying a hefty premium for the sturdy case and business-friendly software

Lenovo ThinkPad X220

The Lenovo ThinkPad X220 packs in a new Intel Core i5 CPU and can run all day (depending on how you use it). With a 12.5-inch display, it's just a bit smaller than a 13-inch laptop, and it feels like an excellent compromise for frequent travelers.
Pros:
  • Classic ThinkPad design in a compact package
  • amazing battery life
  • and the latest Intel processors make the Lenovo ThinkPad X220 a standout travel laptop
Cons:
  • The touch-pad-pointing-stick combo remains an awkward compromise

Lenovo ThinkPad X220 Tablet (X220T)

Is Lenovo's ThinkPad X220T the perfect tablet laptop? Not really, but it's as close as it gets. Sure, it's not cheap, its industrial aesthetic won't appeal to everyone, it lacks USB 3.0 and eSATA, and we would have liked a few more vertical pixels on the screen.
Pros:
  • Amazing IPS screen
  • Superb ergonomics
  • All-day battery life
  • Excellent build quality
  • Sandy Bridge internals
Cons:
  • No USB 3.0
  • Expensive

Lenovo ThinkPad X220 laptop review

Ultralights aren't for everyone, but with the ThinkPad X220, Lenovo sure is doing its best to make the case that they can be. This latest version of its super-slim executive standby is ThinkPad doing everything it does best .
Pros:
  • Insane battery life flirts with five long hours.&nbsp
  • Blazing performance outdoes your kid's gaming laptop.&nbsp
  • Super-lightweight, but solidly built
Cons:
  • Half-baked touchpad design
  • Please, Lenovo, please swap the Fn and Ctrl keys once and for all

Lenovo ThinkPad X220 Tablet

The Lenovo ThinkPad X220 Tablet ($1,579 direct) strikes a nice concession between ultraportable business laptop and multitouch Windows 7 tablet. Some businesses may be hard pressed to give up its QWERTY ways for a full tablet or compromise losing time learning a new operating system.
Pros:
  • Intel Core i5 processor outpaces the competition
  • Largest hard drive in its class
  • Rugged, ergonomic design
  • Superb physical keyboard and pointing controls
  • Melds Windows 7 with a versatile combination of touch and physical controls
Cons:
  • On the heavy side
  • Screen glare

Lenovo ThinkPad X220 review

Lenovo's ThinkPad laptops are the mainstay of its mobile business, and the X220 is one of the most portable. Despite weighing a miniscule 1.3kg, it packs in a powerful processor and plenty of useful connections.

Say hello to the Lenovo ThinkPad X220, a splendid example of the Chinese manufacturer's commitment to powerful business machines. Weighing only 1.7kg, the ThinkPad X220 can easily be carried around for a day and its briefcase-friendly 306 x 232 x 33mm dimensions make it an excellent choice for a...

"Can't decide between tablet or laptop?"

When my old laptop finally kicked the bucket after many years of service, my lovely husband decided to buy me a new one using a bonus he'd received at work. I use my laptop for both typing and browsing the internet in equal measures, so he suggested this Lenovo laptop, which has a swivel screen to...
Pros:
  • Can be used as laptop or tablet
  • smaller screen for portability & ease of use
  • good battery life

  • mouse sometimes over sensitive

Specs and hardware all there, quality lacking.

I love the X series by lenovo, great product that over-delivers. I also am a huge fan of Newegg, unfortunately I believe the third party they used for this refurb did not take the time that I feel is necessary to properly refurbish this. If I could give the entire experience a rating 2.5/5.
Pros:
  • For the price * Fast *Powerful *Inexpensive *Runs cool (temperature) *Light *Extremely portable
Cons:
  • *Case is in poor condition, easy to replace parts that you would expect in a refurbish, were not replaced
  • *Express card slot non operational
  • *Battery is weak, should have been replaced as part of a refurb.
