The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 has a backlit keyboard, edge-to-edge gorilla glass screen, the infamous click touchpad, and high-fidelity Dolby sound, and it has some serious processing chops. Its standard battery, however, is unimpressive.
Sturdy construction; Gorilla glass is scratch-proof; Backlit keyboard; Great typing experience; HDMI and DisplayPort; Fast 2.5-inch HDD; Standard Voltage processors only; An excellent mix of wireless technologies; Dolby sound is worthy of entertainment laptop
No Anti-glare screen available; Standard battery alone doesn't crank out enough battery life; Hefty for an ultraportable without an optical drive
