Lenovo ThinkPad X1 : a fast charging 3.7 lbs at $1400

post #1 of 6

ThinkPad X1 - The 13-inch ultraportable will pick up where the X301 left off, as the flagship and the model built to prove that business notebooks can be as sexy as consumer ones. News that there would not be an X302 (or an X310 for that matter) broke back in July when it was noted that the ThinkPad’s star product (aka “executive notebook”) would be the T410s.

The ThinkPad X1 rumors from the past weeks were right on target–the system has a 13.3-inch Gorilla Glass display with edge-to-edge glass, weighs 3.7 pounds, and ranges from 17mm – 25mm thick. It might seem a bit hefty for a notebook in this class, but keep in mind that the X1 is a full-powered machine. It will be available with second gen Core i3/i5/i7 processors, solid-state storage (2.5-inch), and Dolby Sound.

ThinkPad diehards will have to make some adjustments if they will be considering the X1. It might feature classic ThinkPad styling, but it has the company’s island keyboard, the new clickable trackpad, and a glossy display. There is no matte display option.

The X1 packs Lenovo’s RapidCharge battery technology which is able to charge the system back up to 80% in just 30 minutes. You’ll have to keep the charger with you, but if you do you’ll be powered up in no time. Without the optional slice battery Lenovo says the system will be good for 5 hours of battery life, with it the X1 should get up to 10 hours.

The X1 will be available on May 17, starting at $1399.

80% in 30 min? Hmmm. Why is that not that impressive to me?

Slowing in, longer retaining the power ... old school Steve - a 10hrs performance can't be achieved with some quick swallow wink.gif Take a coffee break or do some working out during the recharging winknudge.gif

cheers ...

Doesn't fast recharge damage the life of the battery?

According to Steve, 80% on 30 minutes is still slow, so no worry here laugh4.gif
