Press quotes
"The [ThinkPad T400s Multi-Touch] screen is pure beauty. Like a capacitive touchscreen phone, light taps on the display are responsive and you don't have to think about positioning your finger in a certain way to open apps or rearrange windows."
Leaving Gizmodo, September 2009
"Like most ThinkPads, the T400s can handle some pounding. Multitasking (watching a 1080p video, with 7 tabs open in Firefox, while running three IM clients and editing photos in GIMP) was smooth and I wasn't waiting around for things to load"
Leaving Gizmodo, September 2009
"The ThinkPad T400s nails both touch and performance, but it also makes a decent phone and music player."
Leaving Gizmodo, September 2009
"The ThinkPad T400s has always been a solid notebook, and now it's the world's first to have a screen capable of recognizing four fingers at once."
Leaving Gizmodo, September 2009
"The Lenovo ThinkPad T400s Touch is a very cool idea, bringing a touch interface to a standard notebook. It gives users the capability to interact with the computer on a much more natural level and has huge potential for CAD applications or even messing around while surfing the web."
Leaving Gizmodo, September 2009
"The Lenovo ThinkPad T400s (Multitouch), a big-screen version of the ThinkPad X300 commands the same kind of awe, and now has multitouch capability."
Leaving PC Magazine.com, September 2009
"The ThinkPad T400S weighs less than four pounds and measures less than an inch thick, it feels even thinner and lighter."
Leaving Notebook.com, June 2009
"If you want something with reasonable processing capability but in a near-ultraportable form-factor, it's a definite contender."
Leaving Slash Gear, June 2009
"Before anyone gets too worried – the T400s feels like a ThinkPad. The keyboard is slightly changed, but excellent, the build quality is very solid and the system generates very little heat. The materials are basically the same as they've always been, but the system feels lighter and thinner than you would expect (it's easy to pick up with one hand when it's open). Overall it feels like a mix of the T400 and the X301, and while impressive, it's not as crazy-thin as the X301 (0.79-inches thick)."
Leaving Geek.com, June 2009
"As always, the [T400s] keyboard is excellent-fast, accurate, and predictable – though the slight tweaks to the Delete and Escape keys won't be universally loved. Individual keys are actually spaced together more closely, so fewer crumbs and other debris will fall between them. Users will be right at home and aside from the shorter system height it feels just like any ThinkPad."
Leaving Geek.com, June 2009
"The [T400s] trackpad is 27% larger and works just as well as always. While the new texture is a bit odd for a ThinkPad, it's accurate and the material never catches your finger the way some different textured trackpads can."
Leaving Geek.com, June 2009
"The [T400s] 1440x900 display offers up a lot of room for a system this weight, and a standard amount for a 14-inch notebook. The use of LED backlighting is great to see and the screen gets pretty bright."
Leaving Geek.com, June 2009
"Based on the specs and the previous ThinkPad models, there wasn't much concern about the T400s being a solid performer. It has no problems handling Vista and other daily tasks, just as you would expect from any recently released notebooks, lightweight or otherwise."
Leaving Geek.com, June 2009
"Lenovo has just announced the ThinkPad T400s, a 14.1-inch laptop that is only 0.83 inch thick and less than four pounds in weight. I have been using the T400s for a couple of weeks and I am very impressed with this no-compromise notebook."
Leaving JK On the Run, June 2009
"The ThinkPad T400s has been a good performer for me so far with very good system responsiveness. I am seeing nearly six hours of battery life with the standard battery making this a solid mobile solution for the road warrior."
Leaving JK On the Run, June 2009
"[The multi-touch trackpad] makes using the T400s easily done without a mouse, something I normally don't like doing."
Leaving JK On the Run, June 2009
"The T400s features a Magnesium alloy bottom cover and keyboard bezel to provide absorbent shock protection to the motherboard, which means you'll never have to worry about dropping your laptop bag on the floor or accidentally banging the ThinkPad against something...We can definitely appreciate its durability, especially since it's made out of carbon- and glass-fiber – the same material used in sports cars and commercial air planes."
Leaving Maximum PC, June 2009
"[I]f you are looking for an all-around sturdy machine that can perform your typical work or school functions and be transported with ease, the T400s is a worthy product."
Leaving Maximum PC, June 2009
"One of the biggest improvements: the touch pad, covered in a matte textured finish, is one of the most responsive we've used, and also is one of the best at executing multitouch commands like two-fingered scrolling. The T400s is one of the few laptops remaining to also offer a pointing stick, and it also has its own set of discrete buttons over the touch pad."
Leaving CNET, June 2009
"The screen, now backlit by LEDs, is also dazzlingly bright – one of the brightest on the market, especially in this size class. Netbook and MacBook Air users, take a back seat: There's also a DVD burner."
Leaving Wired, June 2009
"So how did Lenovo improve on a laptop that already offered a great balance of features? For starters, it slimmed down the profile (big time), beefed up the ports, and integrated GOBI (for Wireless WAN access)."
Leaving IT World, June 2009
"Lenovo has presented a worthy successor to the T61 series with the T400. Every piece of the hardware, from the processor to the RAM to the HDD, was a solid choice by Lenovo and performed well under our testing. The battery life was excellent, in part thanks to unique features like Switchable Graphics, which let you switch between integrated graphics and the dedicated 256MB GPU at will."
Leaving Laptop Logic, December 2008
"The Lenovo ThinkPad T400 proved to be an exceptional 14" business notebook, giving almost unheard-of battery performance under modest running conditions."
Leaving Notebookreview.com, August 2008
"The Lenovo T500 as a whole is a great step up from the T61... System performance was phenomenal, coming close to workstation or gaming notebook levels."
Leaving Notebookreview.com, August 2008
"The T500 Thinkpad is the latest 15.4" refresh of the longstanding T-series out of Lenovo. Combining the latest generation of Intel goodies, ATI Hybrid graphics, and DisplayPort connection this notebook has many new things to offer over the previous ThinkPads."
