Seller-provided details for this listing.
If the market for powerful, compact business laptops were an arms race, the Lenovo ThinkPad X220 with Lenovo ThinkPad X220 Series Battery would be a rapid-firing howitzer among a crowd of mostly popguns, thanks to its Intel second-generation Core i5 processor, also known as Sandy Bridge. In this supremely well-executed machine, youll find a classic ultraportable with all of the ThinkPad perks youve grown accustomed to, including class-leading speed, a no-compromises keyboard, an excellent-quality screen, and strong connectivity features.
Of course, all this does come at a price$979 for Lenovo's entry-level model in the family, or $1,299 for the more powerful unit we tested. This pricing may be a tough hit for buyers who aren't getting the X220 through a corporate IT budget, but we maintain that this machine is nonetheless a superior value for the money.
Design
The most striking feature of the ThinkPad X220 is its weightor rather, lack thereof. At just 2.9 pounds, this notebook feels about the same as a netbook. But of course, its not a netbook, so the power inside comes as a pleasant surprise. It's less than an inch thick, too, so its easy to slip into a bag or carry with a portfolio or a stack of papers.
Beyond that, if youve ever seen any ThinkPad, you already know what the X220 looks like: a matte-black, squared-off chassis with not a frill in sight. If thats not your style, then ThinkPads in general are not for you. On the plus side, unlike the cheap plastic feel of most low-cost laptops and netbooks, the ThinkPad X220 has a magnesium-alloy shell that feels solid. Plus, the outside is coated in a high-quality paint that serves two purposes: The slightly rubberized texture gives a sure grip, and it also helps hide fingerprints.
