The Lenovo ThinkPad X220 suffers from poor touchpad design
And the positioning of “Fn” and “Ctrl” key still is a problem
Review
If there’s one thing that we’ve learnt after reviewing so many ultralight laptops
It’s that the ultralight laptops certainly aren’t the machines that will please everyone. But the Lenovo ThinkPad X220 comes to us as a shocker
And we are more than happy to see
Washed-out
Flaky webcam
Short palm rest
Poor palm rejection
Bottom Got Quite Warm During Heavy Use
No Bluetooth
New touchpad design is a one-finger-at-a-time navigating tool. Unexciting color.
Comes overloaded with background apps
Buttonless touchpad may bother some users
No docking station pass through on the optional slice battery
No dedicated graphics option
The touch-pad-pointing-stick combo remains an awkward compromise
And as with most ThinkPads you're paying a hefty premium for the sturdy case and business-friendly software
Clickpad can be a bit wonky Design may feel outdated to some Can get pricey with configuration options

It's true, from afar the X220 could be mistaken as a five year old laptop -- one that couldn't last longer than four hours on a charge, and would be considered sluggish by today's standards (most likely because it would have been running Vista!). But in f...
