喜欢触摸板并抱怨ThinkPad X200系列中无触摸板的人们再也不会抱怨了,X301配有带滚动区域的相应尺寸触摸板.这些评论者考虑仅在输入时使用小红点,所以更喜欢它们位于触摸板之上,但对触摸板的检测发现这是有用处的,而且尺寸是合适的.

在触摸板右侧是指纹识别器,这时很多商用笔记本所具有的特点.掌托区域同样很舒适,其表面配有橡胶涂层,因此手感和外观均让人满意.掌托处是平的,触摸起来像绸缎一样,手感很好.

性能和评测

ThinkPad X301 并不配有适合台式机的Quad Core(酷睿四核)处理器.便携笔记本是使用低电压处理器来节省电能并降低发热量.ThinkPad X301配有最新的因特尔1.40GHz酷睿2双核SU9400处理器.X300使用的是有因特尔为便携式笔记本设计的1.20GHz L7100处理器,但SU9400是其他品牌也将采用的处理器.看上去是更为标准.很明显.SU9400 45nm处理器是因特尔工程师设计的符合联想需求的处理器.
X301配备的SU9400处理器完全能够满足办公要求以及浏览网页灯相关工作,但度与3D应用或者其他复杂程序应对困难.因特尔集成显卡可以完场一些小型游戏任务,甚至在效果不全开的情况下完成半条命2游戏,不过,通常情况下,使用者更常用的是情况是收发邮件,网络浏览,办公,图片编辑等工作.换句话说,多数商业人员使用便携笔记本的目的是什么.



SSD存储器应用于提高整机性能已有段时间了,从按下开机键到Windows滚动条小时的启动时间是28秒.启动机器后开通无线网络连接,浏览器显示主页画面的时间是32秒.



让我们看一下几个benchmarks检测结果以便对X301的情况更加了解.

PCMark05是测量系统整体表现的检查方法,它测试处理器,硬盘,内存及操作系统的综合表现.你会注意到X301检测结果比X300高1000点,是MacBook Air的两倍.

电池
联想提供3芯和6芯锂电池.电池位于笔记本前部.
3芯电池更轻,续航时间为4.3小时,6芯电池重一些,续航时间为6.5小时. 也可同时选购3芯锂聚合托架电池,放置在光驱处,放置很简单.取下光驱螺丝即可,然后将光驱位电池放入.
(注意,由于无热切换功能,安装时需关机)

现对电池进行了检测,第一项检测结果如下:

    电池: 6芯锂电池
    无线: Wi-Fi 开使用:
    待机,屏幕开
    Vista 电源设置: 省电模式
    屏幕亮度: 7 / 15 bars
DVD光驱: 开,但不使用
在此情况下,电池供电4小时50分钟.电池电量剩余6%,笔记本进入休眠状态.

更理想的环境下, 我们进行了如下测试:
    电池: 6芯锂电池+ 3-cell光驱位电池
    无线: 全开使用: 网上冲浪, 反复进行, 下载和安装软件
    Vista 电源模式: 省电模式
屏幕: 7/15 bar

在典型工作状态下,7小时20分钟后电池电量剩余6%,进入休眠状态
注意,首先使用3芯电池,主电池随后,难以觉察到何时开始使用主电池.

加上光驱位电池时X301重量会增加几盎司.但这些重量往往是值得的.

by Andrew Baxter

While cheap netbooks are all the rage these days, just a few months ago the attention was being lavished on expensive, high-end thin and light notebooks.  Namely the 13.3" screen Apple MacBook Air and Lenovo ThinkPad X300.  Fast forward several months and several hundred stock market points lower and expensive laptops don't seem quite as appealing, which might be why the recent release of the Lenovo ThinkPad X301 was mostly a silent entrance on stage left.  Still, if you're a CEO that happens to still have a job these days and you like to have the latest and greatest in ultra-mobile computing technology, cost not being a concern, the ThinkPad X301 could be a fit.

Buying Choices for the Lenovo ThinkPad X301 with integrated graphics
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lenovo | $2,605.00


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Overview



Before going too far we'll preface this review by saying it's going to sound a whole lot like the X300 review we did back in February.  That's simply because the new X301 is just a refresh to the X300, and design wise everything remains the same.  Internally you have a new Montevina platform Intel chipset and Lenovo also saw fit to add a DisplayPort interface this time around, but other than that we're talking carbon copy of the X300 here.  Which isn't a bad thing by any means, since the X300 won high praise.

The review unit ThinkPad X301 we have comes with the following specs:

Processor: 1.40GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SU9400 (1.40GHz, 3MB L2 cache, 800Mhz FSB)
Graphics: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD
Screen: 13.3-inch WXGA+ (1440 x 900, 300 nit) LED backlit display
Memory: 2GB (up to 4GB configurable)
Storage: 64GB SSD (up to 128GB SSD optional)
Optical Drive: Ultra-thin DVD Burner
Wireless and Communications: Intel Wi-Fi Link 5100 (802.11 a/b/g/n wi-fi), BlueTooth 2.0 EDR (Verizon or AT&T 3G wireless available as option, not included)  
Battery: 6-cell Li-Polymer extended life battery (3-cell Li-Polymer battery available and multi-bay extended life 3-cell battery)
Ports: 3 USB 2.0 ports, Monitor out port, AC adapter, headphone/line-out, microphone/line-in, Gigabit Ethernet
Dimensions: 12.4" x 9.1" x 0.73" - 0.92"
Weight: from 2.93lbs with 3-cell battery and no optical drive to 3.32lbs with 6-cell battery and DVD Burner in
Port Replicator: Via USB
Input: Full sized keyboard, trackpoint navigation, touchpad, fingerprint reader
Operating System: Windows XP Professional (Windows Vista available in various flavors)
Other Features: Integrated web camera
Price: About $3,000
Warranty: 1-year
Notice the dimensions of the X301, it is well under 1-inch thick, meaning it's easy to slip into a bag for carrying purposes. The light weight makes that doubly the case.

Build and Design

The ThinkPad X301 is as solid as you get in terms of build quality. The internal chassis and roll cage use an advanced carbon-fiber / glass-fiber material that provides both strength and light weight. The case material is made of magnesium, press as hard as you want anywhere on the body of the notebook and it will not flex. Like all ThinkPads, the X301 is designed for accidental abuse and drops. The screen is held down using a latch mechanism with button release, something that's more and more rare these days with notebooks as most other manufacturers move to a latchless design.



The build quality leaves no doubts and the X301 design also makes it standout. That said, there's nothing crazy going on here, the black boxy look of a ThinkPad is still very much so intact. However, the glossy bottom bezel area and the cool light illumination on the ThinkVantage button and power button add a nice touch, plus add to the usability. The speakers located on the front corners of the notebook add a nice design accent. The heat vent grills are painted black to blend with the rest of the notebook design, you don't see any copper colored internals. The screen is centered for those hung up on symmetry. And last and probably most important, the X301 is very thin, a cool look by de facto.



The weight of the X301 with a 3-cell battery and weight saver can get you under the magic 3lb mark at 2.93lbs.  If you're going to be unplugged for any duration of time you'll probably want the 6-cell battery, which bumps the weight to 3.32lbs.  Still a very comfortable weight to be carrying.


Input and Output Ports

The ThinkPad engineers have done a great job of squeezing in as many useful ports in a thin design that they can.  Indeed, the X301 adds an extra port to the mix over the X300 in the form of the DisplayPort located on the back.

Here's what's included:

3 USB 2.0 ports (2 on the left, 1 on the back)
Gigabit Ethernet (back)
Audio out, microphone in (left side)
Monitor out (back)
DisplayPort (back)
  
  


Three USB ports is very generous for this size and dimension laptop. It would have been very nice to have a media card reader slot, especially an SDHC compatible one so that you could quickly boost storage capacity.

Keyboard and Touchpad

The full-sized keyboard on the ThinkPad X301 remains the same as that on the X300.  It has no flex, every key feels individual, and the key travel distance is perfect.  Lenovo has added a matte finish to the keys so that they don't wear and get all shiny over time. For added usability the Caps Lock has a green light indicator and the power button a white light to show power is on.



People that like a touchpad and complain about it being missing on the ThinkPad X200-series have nothing to complain about here, a decent sized touchpad with scrolling areas is in place on the X301. This reviewer actually prefers the TrackPoint pointing stick over the touchpad and exclusively uses that method of input, but in testing out the touchpad it was found to be responsive and the size adequate.



Just to the right of the touchpad is a fingerprint reader, a feature common to many business notebooks. The palm rest area is especially comfortable, it has a rubberized paint finish so it both feels and looks nice. It's very smooth and pleasing to the touch, almost satin in feel.

Performance and Benchmarks

The ThinkPad X301 is not built to compete with your Quad Core processor loaded desktop. The name of the game with thin travel notebooks is using a low voltage processor to conserve power and reduce heat build-up. The ThinkPad X301 uses a newly released Intel 1.40GHz Core 2 Duo SU9400 processor from the Montevina family chipset.  The X300 used a 1.20GHz L7100 chip especially designed by Intel for that notebook (so Lenovo claimed), but the SU9400 appears to be a more standard processor that other manufacturers might use.  Apparently the 45nm fabrication process the SU9400 was developed on shrank things enough to mitigate Lenovo needing any further "shrinking tricks" by Intel engineers.  

The SU9400 processor inside the X301 is more than capable of running Office applications and performing any general web related tasks, but will not serve well for 3D graphics applications or any heavy duty rendering tasks. The Intel integrated graphics will allow you to play a few light games, maybe even Half Life 2 on low settings, but in general you'll want to stick to e-mail, web browsing, Office and photo editing tasks. In other words, what most normal business people use a laptop for.

The SSD storage really goes a long way to improving certain aspects of performance, the all important boot-up time is a fast 28-seconds from the push of the power button to the Windows hourglass disappearing. It only took 32 seconds to boot-up, have the wireless connection enabled, and a browser window open to its homepage.

Let's take a look at a couple of basic benchmarks so you can get an idea of how the X301 stacks up.

PCMark05 is a benchmark that measures the overall system performance, so it considers the processor, hard drive, memory and OS as part of the mix.  You'll notice in the results the X301 takes a 1,000 point leap over the previous score of the X300, and the MacBook Air score is close to doubled:

PCMark05 benchmark results (higher scores are better)

Battery

Lenovo offers the choice of either a 3-cell or 6-cell Lithium-Polymer battery that rests at the front of the notebook. The 3-cell is lighter and has a quoted life of up to 4.3 hours while the 6-cell is heavier and has a quoted life of up to 6.5 hours. You can also get a 3-cell Lithium-Polymer option bay battery, to install you just pull out the DVD Burner, which is easily done by removing one screw, and then insert the spare battery instead (note, you have to shut down to do that, there is no hot swap option).

We did a couple of battery tests. In the first test we had the following settings:

Battery: 6-cell Li-Ion extended life battery
Radios: Wi-Fi on
Usage: Idling with screen on
Vista Power Setting: Power Saver
Screen brightness: 7 / 15 bars
DVD Burner: On but never used
Under this non-realistic style usage we achieved 4 hours and 50 minutes of battery life, at which time there was 6% battery left and the X301 went into hibernation.

For a more realistic test, we used the following settings:

Battery: 6-cell Li-Ion extended life battery + 3-cell Media Bay battery
Radios: all on
Usage: used for web surfing, working on review, downloading and installing software
Vista Power Setting: Power Saver
Screen: 7/15 bar
With this typical work scenario setting the battery reached 6% remaining and went into hibernate at 7 hours and 12 minutes. Note that the 3-cell battery is used up first and the main battery is then switched to seamlessly, you won't even notice it happen.  The X301 does weigh a few ounces more when you put the 3-cell media bay battery in, but the extra weight is worth the battery life if that's what you value most from a laptop.

Screen

The 13.3" WXGA+ matte (non-glossy) screen on the X301 is nice and bright, with its 300 nit LED backlit spec. The screen real estate you get with WXGA+ on the 13.3" form factor is actually more than you'd expect, you can quite comfortably fit a couple of web browser or spreadsheet windows open next to each other and compare and contrast things.



  
  


The viewing angles are good, especially the horizontal viewing angles. Thanks in part to the bright screen; it is very easy to view things even if you are almost totally off to the side.

Heat and Noise

One major concern with a laptop that's extremely thin is that it will overheat due to all of the components being crammed together. To combat this issue Lenovo went with an Intel Core 2 Duo 1.40GHz low voltage processor, less power draw means less heat. Heat never became an issue with the X301, it was completely comfortable to use in the lap and the palm rests never got warm.


Temperatures on the palm rest and keyboard area remained low (view large image)



Temperatures on the bottom only got mildly warm (view large image)

The fan located on the back left side of the X301 ran fairly frequently and at a constant rate. It wasn't particularly loud or annoying, with ambient room noise it was hard to hear the fan at all. Though in a more quiet room the fan is certainly audible.

Connectivity and Wireless

The ThinkPad X301 has a great array of connectivity and wireless offerings. Included in the mix are:

WLAN Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n
WAN (Verizon or AT&T 3G services)
UWB (optional)
GPS (optional, available only with Verizon card)
Ethernet LAN port
BlueTooth
Notice there is no modem included, you'll have to use a dongle modem extension if you want that. We don't miss this port being built-in as it's been years since we had to use a modem.  The integrated WAN and WLAN will combine to keep you connected just about anywhere on the road, the UWB is an option for roaming wireless but you won't find many cities in the U.S. that offer this.

Audio

The X301 actually has good sound and speakers that are well positioned. For an ultra thin notebook, that's astounding. The ThinkPad X61/X200 contain a puny speaker on the bottom of the notebook, so this is something of a quantum leap for audio quality on the X-series. ThinkPad X301 equipped executives will never have to tote their external speakers to watch DVDs by night in their hotel rooms again.



Conclusion

The ThinkPad X301 takes the original X300 and adds a nice performance jump with the new Intel SU9400 Montevina family processor plus adds a DisplayPort to the mix.  Also available now is a 128GB SSD option, though this costs $400 more than the standard 64-bit SSD, if you're buying the X301 price probably isn't too much of a concern for you.  The $3,000 laptop market is certainly an exclusive group of buyers, but for many business people their laptop and Blackberry are a lifeline to getting work and deals done, and thereby money made.  So at the end of the day if you're a globe trotting executive that needs a reliable and top of the line work tool, the cost of the X301 can be jusitifed and this slim form factor machine can serve you well.

Pros

Under 1-inch thick, the thinnest ThinkPad ever
Light weight and easy for carrying around in a bag
Superb build quality and feel, nice design touches added
Built-in optical drive for such a thin notebook is a rarity
Improved performance over the X300.  Great for normal business tasks, very fast bootup with the SSD
Very bright screen for easy viewing
Cons

No SD media card reader
No expansion dock capability, USB based port replicator only
No ExpressCard or PC card slot
Starting price of $2,500 is out of range for many people
