A closer look at convertibles: Lenovo's ThinkPad X201 Tablet

In previous posts, I took a second look at convertible tablet PCs and tested HP's EliteBook 2740p. Here's my take on Lenovo's competing convertible, ThinkPad X201 Tablet.

    The Good: Powerful processor in a 12-inch laptop; excellent battery life; typical ThinkPad-quality construction.

    The Bad: Bulky for a 12-inch laptop; expensive for a nongaming system.

    The Bottom Line: Anyone looking for the power of a midsize laptop in a compact 12-inch body has only a few choices, and none to date tops Lenovo's excellent ThinkPad X201.

    Review Summary: The Lenovo ThinkPad X201 Tablet looks like a regular laptop, but it has a trick up its sleeve -- the 12.1-inch display swivels on its hinge to fold flat, turning the ThinkPad into a tablet computer. Experts say the ThinkPad X201 Tablet is the...

    Review Summary: We weren't able to get our hands on the upcoming version of the Lenovo ThinkPad X201 (called the X201s) which has the new ultra-low-voltage Core i7 processor. However, as these run at very slow clock speeds, we think most people will be happier with...

    The Verdict: Solid build quality and a comfortable keyboard are expected of a ThinkPad; the X201 adds desktop performance and a half-day of battery life

    Review Summary: Not too long ago the 12-inch ThinkPad received its 2010 refresh. While the T series got a significant update (thus being changed from the T400 to the T410) the X series was simply changed from the X200 to the X201. That means internal components were...

    Review Summary: Not many brands in the market have made as big as Lenovo ThinkPad in the laptop market. These systems have an iconic feel and not many changes have been done to its looks over the past few years. The feature set lives up to your expectations and its...

    The Verdict: This is a business laptop targeted towards businessmen who want a power full notebook in a small chassis. All this will cost you a lot more than a standard notebook though.
