The good: Extremely thin and light; sleekest ThinkPad yet; built-in DVD burner, plus WWAN, GPS, and wireless USB.
The bad: Solid-state drive comes at a high premium; touch pad's location makes it easy to accidentally graze while typing.
The bottom line: The ThinkPad X300 breaks new ground by packing a broad display, full-size keyboard, and nearly every feature a mobile user needs into a sleek, lightweight case.
We're not even two months into the new year, and we've already seen Apple's remarkably slim MacBook Air and Toshiba's update to its featherweight Portege R500. Both were very strong contenders for the top spot on our list of favorite ultraportable laptops--until this week, when we got our hands on the Lenovo ThinkPad X300. The newest addition to the ThinkPad X series incorporates the best of the MacBook Air (13.3-inch display, full-size keyboard, thickness less than one inch) with the best of the Portege R500 (solid-state hard drive, thorough selection of ports) while also adding its own great features, such as a built-in DVD burner, WWAN connectivity, and GPS. The X300's ThinkPad DNA is evident in its instantly recognizable black, square-edged case, but at 0.73 inch thick and weighing anywhere from 2.9 pounds to 3.5 pounds (depending on your battery and optical drive choices), it's simply the sleekest ThinkPad yet. The biggest criticism of the ThinkPad X300 is its price: the base configuration costs $2,476 and goes up from there. But innovative design, thorough features, and cutting-edge components don't come cheap, and the ThinkPad X300 is truly unique in its balance of portability and usability.

Aside from the laptop's dimensions, the design changes with the ThinkPad X300 have been incremental. The ultraportable still features a rectangular black case built around a magnesium chassis. There's still a blue ThinkVantage button above the keyboard, a fingerprint reader below it, and a keyboard light on the top edge of the display. However, ThinkPad fans will notice small changes that make the X300 a bit more attractive. The lid and wrist rest feature an appealing soft matte finish; the ThinkVantage, power, and mute buttons glow when pressed; and the front edge is devoid of any ports or switches.
In addition to the keyboard light, the ThinkPad X300's display bezel includes a 1.3-megapixel Webcam and a noise-canceling digital microphone for Web conferencing. The matte-finish display itself features a 1,440x900 native resolution that's sharper than that of the MacBook Air and other similarly sized screens, resulting in text and icons that are a bit smaller than you'd expect. The sharper resolution doesn't cause tremendous problems, though we did find ourselves pumping up the font size on a newspaper's Web site so we could read a lengthy article. We also zoomed in a bit when working on documents and spreadsheets. The trade-off: more screen real estate for multitasking and, when it's time for a break, beautiful video.
Given the amount of typing the typical executive does through the course of the work day, a keyboard can make or break an ultraportable. The ThinkPad X300 actually uses the same keyboard found on Lenovo's 14- and 15-inch models--which is to say, not the condensed keyboard found on previous X series models and many ultraportable laptops from other manufacturers. After conducting an entire morning's work--and writing this review--on the ThinkPad X300, we still don't feel like we've been typing on a laptop. We love it.
Lenovo decided to include both the red eraser-head TrackPoint pointing stick and a touch pad on the ThinkPad X300. The decision is understandable: many ThinkPad users are viscerally attached to their TrackPoints, while other users can't stand it, so why not include both methods? However, the double sets of mouse buttons seem to run counter to the overall theme of simplification that the ThinkPad X300 embodies. In order to make room for the TrackPoint's buttons, the touch pad is placed rather low on the wrist rest, with its buttons near the laptop's front edge. Fortunately, the ThinkPad X300 is thin enough that we could use the touch pad with our wrist resting on a desk surface--or on our leg, when the laptop was in our lap. Of greater concern is the fact that, during our lazier typing moments when our wrists dropped to the wrist rest, we were likely to graze the touch pad and accidentally misplace the cursor.

The ThinkPad X300 is an interesting exercise in minimalism. The laptop lacks some features that would be considered standard on an ultraportable, such as an expansion card slot or multiformat memory card reader, both of which are found on the Toshiba Portege R500. But it adds features that will likely be of higher value to mobile workers, such as WWAN, wireless USB, and even GPS. More notably, it incorporates many features that the MacBook Air does not, including two more USB ports, an Ethernet connection, and a built-in DVD burner. These additions make the ThinkPad X300 a realistic choice for use as a primary computer, which is a major advantage over its Apple competitor, especially given the price.
The base model of the ThinkPad X300 costs a hefty $2,476. Much of that price can be attributed to the laptop's 64GB solid-state drive, which promises faster application launch and boot times as well as a longer lifetime than a traditional hard drive with moving parts. (Unlike the MacBook Air, which comes in a low-cost configuration with a traditional spinning hard drive, the ThinkPad X300 is available only with a solid-state drive.) Our review unit included a few upgrades--twice as much RAM as the base configuration, plus WWAN, GPS, and an extended-life six-cell battery--that brought the price to $2,936. That's a bit high, even for an ultraportable, but still below the cost of a MacBook Air equipped with a solid-state drive.
Like the MacBook Air, the ThinkPad X300 incorporates Intel's new small-form-factor Core 2 Duo CPU, though with a slightly slower clock speed. That slower speed is at least partly to blame for the ThinkPad X300 trailing behind the MacBook Air on the multimedia multitasking portion of CNET Labs' performance benchmarks. Fortunately the ThinkPad's 2GB of RAM helped it keep up with the MacBook Air on our Photoshop test, where it also scored well ahead of the Toshiba Portege R500. As with any Core 2 Duo system, the ThinkPad X300 proved more than adequate for typical business productivity tasks, including Web surfing, media playback, and running office applications. We were able to conduct a full morning's work while streaming music over the wireless connection without any stuttering or noticeable performance issues.
In anecdotal testing of the ThinkPad X300 with the six-cell battery, we were able to get between 3 and 4 hours of battery life, depending on our usage and screen brightness settings. On CNET Labs' DVD battery drain test, the ThinkPad X300 died out after 3 hours, 43 minutes, just 20 minutes before the MacBook Air. That's obviously not enough juice for a full day of work away from the desk, but it is nearly an hour longer than the Portege R500's battery life. Here's another place where the ThinkPad X300's built-in DVD is an advantage: you can purchase an additional three-cell battery that fits inside the drive bay to extend your mobile computing time. Also an advantage: the ThinkPad X300's removable battery, which is remarkable only because users cannot replace the battery in the MacBook Air.
As Lenovo has moved toward offering built-to-order systems, the company has dropped the baseline warranty for ThinkPads to a single year. Extending coverage to three years costs $119; other reasonably priced upgrades add coverage for accidental drops or spills and LCD damage. The preloaded suite of ThinkVantage applications helps users troubleshoot problems, and Lenovo's support Web site includes the expected troubleshooting topics, driver downloads, and user guides.

The perfect Ultra-portable ... ALMOST
by samhobbs on March 26, 2008
Pros: Thin profile, solid state HDD, Vista not required, good battery life, ideal keyboard and cursor options
Cons: Non-standard AC power input; no PC/Express slot, larger footprint than any prior X models, limited built out options

Summary: I have had 8 Thinkpad notebooks over the years, including X20,X21,X23,X31,X40 and Z61T. I was really supprised when the X300 arrived and its footprint was like the Z61T, not small like the prior X-models. The X300 is about as thin as the prior X-models without the ultra-base, yet it includes a DVD drive (if you so order).
All around, my XP X300 booted up amazingly fast (because no hard drive), and loading it up to place in service was fast. I charged the battery fully before starting, and then disconnected it from the wall before booting up. I ran solely on battery for the setup, much of which involved loading Office and other software from the DVDs, and transferring files via gigabit Ethernet. When I shut it down for the night after 3.9 hrs, it still registered 33 minutes on the power meter.
The X300 quickly found our wifi, asked for the key, and connected. My unit has 3gb of memory. Surfing, file transfer and setup all seemed much faster than any X or Z model prior. I did not buy WWAN because Verizon will not let you purchase unlimited access, and requires a $175 disconnect fee if you don't pay for a year contract. I felt safer to plan on a Cingular tether GPRS, or Sprint USB WWAN device, because of their plans (including unlimited from Sprint).
I was deeply disappointed that after owning 8 X&Z models, the "Lenovo Standard" A/C plug was missing: The X300 power tip is new and incompatable with any other tip by any manufacturer. This means no free extra power supplies, unless you can find a suitable tip from Targus or iGo.
As I was checking out through the Lenovo web purchasing site, I was offered a rechargeable pcmcia mouse as an option. I bought it, only to realize when it arrived that the X300 has NO PCMCIA or ExpressCard slot. Ugh!
I covet the small form factor of the earlier X models, but the X300's large screen and spacious keyboard may be a plus for some. The X300 is about 3 lbs with optical drive (excluding power supply).
After I had given my credit-card data to Lenovo to check out, a message popped up stating that it would take 3-4 weeks for delivery. I was really irritated because I omitted all the options that included warnings that they would delay shipping. NEVERTHELESS, my X300 arrived in 6 business days, shipped to a small town in the South. Go figure.
I decided to get the X300 after eliminating the Toshiba R500 (bad reviews, 1.75 lb model is discontinued) and the Sony VAIO. I have had prior Sony PCG notebooks that were great (major objection was that the touch pad is your thumb-rest, leading to inadvertent cursor placement while typing), but the Lenovo Keyboard and joystick pointer tipped the scale in favor of the X300. While Lenovo got it mostly right, I am still awaiting the perfect notebook: large on the inside, small on the outside, with standard A/C and PCMCIA interfaces. Now that they have shown a DVD drive in a computer the thickness of the X-31, I hope Lenovo produces a true X-70? with the small footprint of x-40, same thin-ness, and standard A/C and PCMCIA as from the old X series.5 out of 5 users found this user opinion helpful.

i really like this computer, but unfortunately, its not for me. it has too much in there! i do not need a dvd player at all times..i do not need all those ports all the time. i do not need a touchpad and a stick. it was never made for me, but this thing is amazing nevertheless.
i own a mba and a lenovo ideapad y510. if i was a businessman, i would probably have a mbp and a thinkpadx300 setup instead. this computer deserves a 10 because of its ports+features, but a -1 because of its lack of flexibility in price and its lack of flexibility with a broader targeted audience. It's perfect for someone else. Just not me.5 out of 6 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: Honestly, I couldnt believe my eyes when I saw the Mac World presentation of Macbook Air. I couldn't believe that it could actually fit in that manila folder. Looking at its sleek design and features, I really didn't care much about the specs, until I saw this laptop. WOW! I mean honestly, its got 3 usb ports, an optical drive, a removable battery, an ethernet port and a higher resolution than the Air. Apple really needs to take notes here and reflect those changes in the Macbook Air Take 2.

Great start for an UltraPortable ssd system

A swappable battery is absolutly necessary.
Thinkpads are not typically multimedia beasts, and this gives nice tradeoff features. Good speakers, optional webcam, etc.
In notebooks, there is always a tradeoff in performance vs power consumption. 25% reduction in power is awesome green. For 95% typical business use, dual core 1.2 is not stellar; but more than adequate for stuff like Word, Excel, Powerpoint, casual browsing, DVD watching, etc.
Vista is available on the x300 if you try to configure one.
Internal DVD is great, as a swappable device makes it even better. I havn't found out if burner is DVD DL (more a curiosity than a need for me).
Beauty is relative. I support both PCs and Macs. As Macs age, the "Apple white" shows more discolorations, scuffs, scratches, and especially gross hairs, crumbs, and derma in the keyboard :-P. Personally, I like black better.
Business thinkpads NEED a good docking solution. All I see available is a USB dock, which IMHO are slow, unreliable, and still require a second connector (for power). Expresscard support would be nice for some of these concerns and additional expansion.
SD card support would be nice, as in their other Xnn models.
Looking at the support site, Lenovo does list an internal 120GB 8mm Micro-SATA hard drive FRU part number. coming soon to a base model?
The docs on that site says they were last updated on 2007-10-06, so this has obviously been in the works for a while, and not just a quick response to the airbook.
After perusing the Lenovo support site on the x300, I'm very hopeful that follow-on models in the works will address many of the reasonable concerns.

Summary: While this is a pricey laptop, it's justified for the specs. It's a Thinkpad, so you knows it's going to be solid and durable. The 64GB SSD is enough storage for everything I do at work...and it should provide better performance and improved battery life over the mechanical IDE HDD.
The biggest advantage of the X300 is the connectivity. WWAN, WiMAX, UWB, 802.11N, etc. make the X300 a great system today and over the next two years. I don't need the DVD drive, so I'll probably opt for the additional 3 cell battery in the bay instead...the extra 1.5+ hours will be more useful for my needs. And even though CNET had some problems with the high-res screen, I prefer them. I run my T60p at 1440x900...so the fonts will be very comfortable. On Tuesday I'll be looked at the X300 in the Lenovo website. I'll probably upgrade the warranty to 3 years warranty as well, since I plan to keep the laptop that long.2 out of 2 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: The biggest issue for me would be lack of space for my media, which sets me at about 80 gigs without Apps and other files. I say a company needs to layer 2 of these SSD's In a computer with full card compatibility so a user can look at 160 gigs of flash memory(64/64+32). I would rather have a 1-inch thick laptop with practical specs than a .73 with a few nuts and bolts shaken loose.
I guess apple is going with the whole "buy a terabyte Mac Pro for home and access those files on the go" kind of thinking. So I guess your ultraportable choice relys on your lifestyle and budget.
Regardless, This is one step closer to a full feature UP than the Air, So I'll tip my hat.3 out of 5 users found this user opinion helpful.

Summary: Amazing ultra-portable, but with one major drawback: no docking station. The recommended IBM USB port replicator does not solve the problem of plugging in multiple cables. If you want to use a monitor with 1680x1050 resolution even with the USB replicator you will end up with too many separate cables: power, monitor, printer (if you need parallel), LAN, usb. This is a major deficiency for corporate users. Hopefully Lenovo designers take a note of this for future products.

Beware defective touchpad

Dimensions are good, large enough for a good keyboard. Light-ish with the DVD and the 6 cells pack. Very silent due to the SSD drive.
BUT I'm a touchpad user (and don't try to convert me, I won't try to convert you).
There's a sensitivity problem with the touchpad I wish I knew before buying. It's way harder to get the pad to register a tap on the X300 than on any previous thinkpad/mac I've owned before. It seems to be a general problem with the X300. This is unacceptable for a 3000$+ laptop, no matter how low the $ has sunk.

Summary: After reading the official reviewer's comments about the great keyboard, I was surprised to find that mine flexes noticeably under firm typing, providing the sensation of typing on a pillow. Certain that something was wrong with my unit, I went through several attempts to get it repaired. (I will spare you the details.) I've finally been told by IBM (which still does service for Lenovo) that Lenovo says this is a design issue that cannot and will not be fixed. I've owned Thinkpads for many years, and this model just doesn't live up to the Best Keyboard reputation. Some people may not be bothered by this, but do try before you buy.
