imo sony z series are not as durable (no milspec testing) and they're almost double the price. I do love the design tho.
I use an x200 at work. we all do. they are beasts. Small as hell, not too heavy, does everything and then some. We beat on them pretty hard out in the field with no issues.
tbh I'm a big fan of how they look. I see laptops like alienware and I feel like there's just way too many lines and ideas going on. I like how the thinkpad line looks simple, understated, and utilitarian like it's not here to **** around
I always hear great things about these laptops, but I wish they would step up the game in their designs. Never been a big fan of how they look.
^i really wish the new generation had the same pixel count. 1440x900 with ips would be killer
I know we've had information here and there, but I thought it might be nice if we had a thread I was going to buy and x201 during the black friday sales thanks to gqgeek, but i decided to wait for sandybridge and after a 3 week wait finally got my x220. I'm going to write a mini review in the next post. pretty excited for this company as they have a few new exciting products coming out like the X1 (macbook air competitor) and the Le pad (it's a hybrid computer where the screen is actually a tablet computer you can remove) anybody else own lenovo products?
I have been using IBM/Lenovos for the last decade. I currently use an X301. I think it is the best laptop ever made. I have 8GB of RAM in it, a Verizon WWAN card, and a 256GB SSD. It has a six cell battery and a three cell battery in the option bay. It has a 13.3" 1440x900 screen with an extremely bright LED backlight. It weighs 3.2lbs, has the best laptop keyboard in the world, has better fit and finish than the average Lenovo (X301 had a more expensive rubberized finish), and is extremely thin. I work from home a lot, and live near the water. On a beautiful day I take the laptop to a waterfront park and sit in the sun. I get about 3 hours of battery life with the screen on full brightness (extremely legible in direct sunlight) and WWAN. Unfortunately Lenovo did not continue to develop this model. It cost $4000 or so when it was new and was a poor seller. I picked mine up brand new for $900. It is underpowered in the processor department (SU9400 1.4GHz) but the fast SSD more than makes up for it for most work. Even with a VM or two for testing things it is still quite fast (when plugged in)
X301 are nice, only ever seen one in person. Iroh, X120e is NOT the X1 correct?
