The Thinkpad X1 has a terrific keyboard!The Lenovo X1 is one of the best thin&light ThinkPad to ever be produced. I like the build quality, the rigidity of the chasis, and its overall design. The Keyboard deserves a special mention, because it is the best...
At the end of the day, the team at Lenovo did a very good job developing a ThinkPad that offers the durability, performance and features that we've come to expect from a ThinkPad and combining them with the stylish design elements that appeal to many consumers and IT buyers. If that is your measure for success, then the ThinkPad X1 is indeed a winner. However, the X1 is not exactly "perfect" eith

If you're in the market for an ultraportable with full-size laptop performance, it's hard to beat the Lenovo ThinkPad X1. If you're a ThinkPad person, to see the X1 is to lust for the X1. It's large enough to offer a readable display, a decent sized t...
On first look the idea of putting a low-power processor in a laptop may seem a strange idea, but Lenovo has managed to integrate the secondary OS in a slick manner and for people looking for the ThinkPad X1 experience but with more battery life, this c...
Good CPU performance, Robust / Small, Separate volume control buttons
No disc player, Panel with very low contrast (173:1) and inaccurate colours, Low gaming capacity, Low battery life (2h15), Onboard speakers lack power
With battery life of 2h15, the X1 may be powerful and well-equipped but we aren’t able to give it more than a three-star rating. The Asus U36SD seems a better choice to us, especially as it costs almost half as much as the X1 (remember, price isn't inc...
Despite the less than glorious screen resolution, in practice, I found the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 was really a pleasure to use. I’m simply a veteran ThinkPad user, there’s always been (at least) one in my Apple household, and I’m the sort of user who disa...
Chassis design is class leading, liquid ‘proof’ keyboard, The best laptop keyboard we have used, and it offers backlighting, screen is very bright, working well in a variety of conditions, good overall system performance, Strong connectivity including USB 3.0, eSATA and HDMI out, onboard audio is surprisingly capable, over 10 hours battery life with the slice added, full 3 year warranty
single channel memory, battery slice is very expensive in the UK, not a gamers machine, slightly reflective screen, without the battery slice, the underside of the chassis can get warm, rubber cover on the side panel isn't really needed, Kitguru says: Thi
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 is without a doubt, one of best laptops I have ever reviewed. The appearance is very ‘businesslike', but Lenovo have been able to modernise the overall design to attract a much larger audience.I will admit I am a huge fan of the App...
The ThinkPad X1 is a tantalising combination of power and ruggedness that should appeal to anyone after a regular travel companion. It’s just a massive shame that the battery dies so fast, and usability isn’t as strong as we hoped.Love: Can withstand a
