X Series features

ThinkPad X300
Portability and ease-of-use
ThinkPad X Series notebooks put the ultra in ultraportable. Designed for extreme mobility, these lightweights deliver in a big way in reliability, performance and durability. Wherever your business takes you, the X Series is sure to be your hardest working and ever-trusty travel companion. You won’t ever want to travel without it.
'Beyond light
There’s enough in your life to weigh you down. Don’t let your notebook. Look to our X Series for ways to lighten your workload. And all models weigh in less than 1.36 kg.
Small footprint
Crowded tables, cramped airline trays or any other tight spots you find yourself in are no match for our X Series. Starting at a mere 26.67 cm wide and 21.08 cm deep, you’ll revel in the increased portability, versatility and sheer freedom of these compact wonders.
Spacious displays
Strike the perfect balance between roomy displays and lightweight mobility. The X Series offers 12.1” and 13.3” widescreen displays so you can enjoy the best of both worlds.
Lenovo’s ThinkPad X300 and X301 push the limits of innovative form factor design. It’s available with a super-thin DVD burner integrated within its surprisingly slim ¾” profile. And the light but roomy 13.3” widescreen LED backlight display helps ease eye strain, too.

Extra long battery life
When you’re on the road, your notebook is only as good as its battery performance. The X Series ThinkPad won’t let you down. A clever combination of Lenovo’s power management features, carefully selected low-voltage processors, less power hungry displays and the latest battery technology allow up to 12 hours* of worry-free all-day computing. (*Depending on model.)

ThinkPad X200s 4 hrs to 10.3 hrs
ThinkPad X301 4.3 hr to 10.0hrs
 
X Series models come with Lenovo Battery Stretch, a new feature of Power Manager that lets you make temporary selections in extreme situations to extend battery life beyond what your regular Power Manager settings might produce.


Durability

On-the-go people sometimes put themselves – and their notebooks – into risky situations. X Series notebooks are tough enough to take it.

X300/X301 Roll cage
On the X301 models, next-generation ThinkPad "roll cage" technology utilizes a carbonfiber/glass-fiber top cover (similar to the bodies of the latest jet airplanes and Formula 1 race cars) for added strength and lightweight construction.

And on the X200, a magnesium-alloy top and bottom system against flexing, impact and accidental drops.


Other X Series durability features include:
  •  Solid State Drives with no moving parts (Select models.)
  •  Strong Magnesium-allow top and bottom covers (X200)
  •  Spill-resistant keyboards, each sealed and contained within a tray with special drainholes to channel spills to the bottom of the system to lessen opportunity for damage.
  •  Reliable, sturdy metal hinge construction designed for daily use.

 



Intel Core2 Duo
Core technology
X Series notebooks are consistently available with the latest Intel® Centrino® Duo Mobile Technology, which delivers a wide variety of benefits including true parallel processing when running multi-threaded applications or multiple applications simultaneously.  The Intel® Centrino® Pro platform (select models) provides hardware-based security and enhanced manageability, along with exceptional performance and outstanding mobility.

 

     
X200 Up to Intel® Core™2 Duo processor P8600 (2.40GHz, 3MB L2,1066MHz FSB). Normal voltage processor for superior performance - not typically available on ultraportables.
X200s Up to Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor SL9400
(1.86GHz, 6MB L2, 1066 MHz FSB)
Low voltage and ultra low voltage processor for a balance between performance and battery life
X301 Intel Core™2 Duo ULV SU9400
(1.40GHz, 3MB, 800MHz)
Special ultra low voltage processor configured to fit smaller, thinner systems.
 

In addition, Intel® Turbo Memory on select ThinkPad X61 models helps speed boot time, loads applications faster, and saves power.

For graphics, X Series models offer integrated Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 (256MB). Integrated graphics use less battery power than discrete graphics and fit better in ultraportable systems such as X Series models.

For optimal wireless reception, X Series features the UltraConnect II antenna, a combined design that supports IEEE 802.11a, b, g and "draft n" wireless technologies to help maximize wireless coverage and performance. The X Series focus on wireless even touches the ultra-durable top cover on the new X300, where signal strength has been preserved with patent-pending technology that molds strong, non-interfering glass-fiber sides to the tough carbon-fiber back.

X61: Available external WAN antenna
And like all ThinkPad models, X Series notebooks come with convenient Access Connections™ software to manage your connectivity options as you move from location to location.
Built-in-solutions and security
The Lenovo Advantage includes great warranty protection and superior support and services. But there's more, such as our exclusive ThinkVantage™ Technologies – tools, software and services that help you deploy, connect, protect and support your Lenovo notebook. Among them are:
Rescue and Recovery™: Recover from system crashes quickly, even if the primary operating system will not boot.
Active Protection System™: Like an airbag's sensor,
Active Protection System can detect sudden changes in motion and temporarily stop the hard drive to help protect it from damage (not applicable to models with Solid State Drives).



Integrated fingerprint reader
In addition, numerous security features promise to keep your system secure and your data protected.

X Series models come equipped with an Integrated Fingerprint Reader and 32-byte pre-boot password protection to help guard against external threats. Together with preloaded ThinkVantage Client Security Solution software, you have an integrated security solution right out of the box. There is even an option to disable all input and output ports on the BIOS level, as a final layer of protection for your information.

Select models of the X Series( X301 and X200s models)  have achieved EPEAT™ Gold qualification and all models are EN ERGY STAR™ 4.0 certified.

The new X Series ThinkPad notebook also consumes less power when compared to previous generation notebooks (ie X61/X61s).
