  • Extremely thin and light; sleekest ThinkPad yet; built-in DVD burner.
  • Solid-state drive comes at a high premium; touchpads location makes it easy to accidentally graze while typing.
  • 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.

  • Abstract:  If there is one thing that history has taught us, its that those who finish second are destined to be forgotten. Unfortunately for Lenovo, its a sentiment that they can probably relate to now, given that for all their efforts on its super thin Kodac...

  • Abstract:  Aunque a muchos no les guste, el X300 es el principal competidor del tan sonado MacBook Air de Apple aunque más potente, casi igual de fino y con 40 gramos más de peso. Por lo tanto estamos ante uno de los portátiles ultraligeros, con arquitectura PC,...

  • Attendu par beaucoup comme un successeur du Thinkpad X31, le X300 ne court pas dans la même catégorie. A part le poids, ils n’ont pas grand chose de commun... Le X300 est un portable assez grand en raison de son écran 13,3 pouces. Cette « grande » t...

  • Abstract:  Aujourd’hui, nous allons tester le dernier ordinateur portable de Lenovo, le X300. Ce modèle, qui a été entièrement pensé chez Lenovo, va-t-il suivre la même voie que les anciens Thinkpad IBM ? Est-ce que la finition, l...

  • Abstract:  Il y a quelques semaines, au moment du lancement du MacBook Air d’Apple, des rumeurs sont apparues : Lenovo allait présenter un ultraportable 13 pouces. Le 26 février, après quelques semaines d’informations parfois contradictoires, Lenovo a annoncé le ...

  • Compact, poids, robuste, connectique, finition, autonomie
  • Prix, absence de lecteur de carte mémoire
  • Lenovo réplique à Apple et son MacBook Air avec le ThinkPad X300. Le chinois prend l'américain à contre-pied en proposant une machine très complète pour un encombrement légèrement supérieur...

  • Gabarit compact, poids correct, conception solide, affichage très confortable connectique complète, connectivité sans fil, finition, bonne autonomie avec la batterie 6 cellules, rendu sonore correct.
  • Le prix pour le moins élitiste, pas dextension PC-Card ou de lecteur de carte mémoire, lecteur optique un peu bruyant.
  • Le ThinkPad X300 propose à peu près toutes les dernières technologies «dont on parle» comme le disque SSD et la 3G+. Il se pose comme la référence de l’ultraportable professionnel, en offrant un confort d’utilisation inédit dans un gabarit aus...
