Lenovo ThinkPad X100e preview

Lenovo x100eYou will not find Lenovo calling the ThinkPad X100e a netbook, but at first sight it’s impossible for you to avoid thinking that is precisely what it is.

From the outside it seems like a shrunken ThinkPad T series, though its matte lid is available in both standard black and red. Yes, you heard it : a ThinkPad in red. The 11.6 in. screen gives it a wider body than most ten inchers, yet Lenovo has managed to fit the same satisfying, chiclet keyboard as the ThinkPad Edge thirteen. And even regardless of the limited deck property there is a good old red pointing stick and a pleasant sized touchpad. So, why not just call it a netbook? Well, that’d be as it has stronger performance parts than the common Intel Atom CPU. Instead it is one of the 1st ThinkPads to have AMD processor options, including single and twin core Althon Neo and twin core Turion processors. In our short lived hands-on we could not gauge much on performance or battery lifespan ( though it does have a sticking out six-cell on the back ), but meanwhile you’ll have to banquet your eyes on the studio below and hold tight for our full review.

You can purchase this netbook here.
