The editors didn't like
Price
No SD card reader
No HDMI
Expensive
No SD card slot
3rd Generation
Not "Haswell
" processor
Awkward vent location
Wildly overpriced. Designed by lunatics. Docking system is a complicated and homely mess. Runs blazing hot
Bring gauze
The Helix is stuck with Intel's less efficient previous generation of CPUs
Making it feel especially expensive
Uses outgoing 3rd gen Intel Core Ivy Bridge rather than Haswell CPUs
Very expensive (though prices seem to be dropping). No SD card slot. Fan skirt tends to catch on laptop bags when inserted
Runs hot
Volume buttons too recessed
Some fan noise. Tablet has only USB 2.0 port. Hinge is locked when tablet out of dock. Pricey
Subpar audio
High-res screen can make small type difficult to read
Pricey considering its 11.6-inch display
Intel M processor limits what programs can be used
Heavy for a convertable
Which means that extended use in tablet/tabletmode becomes tiresome
Trackpad could be far better designed on the Ultrabook Pro keyboard
And the trackpoint isn't needed
Ugly
Unpolished design
Awkward hinge
High-res display can be a problem
Really expensive
Laptop makes too many compromises
Tablet battery is limited
Heavy
Tablet alone has short battery life
Tablet gets hot under heavy load
Limited port selection
No VGA port or SD card slot
Keyboard not backlit
Moderate battery life on tablet
Short on connectors
Relatively heavy
Ethernet via USB dongle
Bundled keyboard dock is very substandard. Tablet performance gets unnecessarily throttled down when removed from dock. Boring
Bland design.
Some awkward design elements
Expensive considering the last-gen components
Stability and build quality can be improved
Small touchpad
No maintainability or upgradeability
Display hinges and additional battery only in combination with Pro-keyboard
Høy ytelse. God batteritid. Fordeler knyttet til administrasjon i bedrifter.
Pris. Enkelte konstruksjonsmessige elementer. Ikke mulighet for «ekte skrivebordsdokking».
Hybrid-pc-er kan handle om kompromisser, og blir sådan vanskelig å gjøre perfekte. Lenovo har vektlagt en del av de riktige tingene i henhold til en del bedrifter, og slikt sett vil sikkert it-avdelingen være fornøyd med. Som en bærbar pc fungerer de...
Abstract: Lenovos nye bærbare computer er en kompakt og tung sag, hvor skærmen – blot med et tryk på en knap – kan tages af og bruges som tavle-pc. Skærmen på 11,6 tommer har en opløsning på 1920 x 1080 pixels og er berøringsfølsom. Computeren leveres med Windows ...
Abstract: Laptopy 2w1, zwane również hybrydowymi, to jeden z dwóch rodzajów komputerów przenośnych, które mogą być wykorzystywane zarówno jako laptop, jak i tablet. Różnica pomiędzy nimi tkwi w zastosowanej metodzie konwersji na tryb tabletu. W hybrydach (2w1) ekra...
odłączany, bardzo jasny wyświetlacz, fantastyczna klawiatura, aktywny rysik, długi czas działania akumulatorów, bezgłośna praca, niskie temperatury obudowy, moduł LTE, bogate funkcje zabezpieczeń, 3 lata gwarancji
bardzo agresywny throttling, bardzo wysoka cena, nieco zbyt "miękka" obudowa
Lenovo ThinkPad Helix to bardzo ciekawe i świetnie wyposażone urządzenie, które docenią zwłaszcza osoby często pracujące w podróży i szczególnie dbające o bezpieczeństwo danych zapisanych w laptopie. Bogaty wachlarz zabezpieczeń w połączeniu z długim czas...
Nasze oczekiwania względem Helixa były spore, jednak nowy ThinkPad nie sprostał im w pełni. Owszem, przy zadaniach typowych dla sprzętu mobilnego, Helix spisuje się świetnie - zapewnia długi czas pracy na baterii, błyskawicznie reaguje na polecenia użytko...

konvertibilní zařízení s klávesnicí režim notebook i tablet, IPS displej s full HD, na tablet vysoký výkon, baterie v klávesnici, velká plocha clickpadu
vyšší hmotnost tabletu, horní řada klávesnice, klávesnice není podsvícená nový clickpad ve spojení s trackpointem
Když jsem nedávno testoval tablet Acer Iconia W700, pochvaloval jsem si velkou kapacitu baterie, jakou výrobce do tabletu osadil. 55 Wh je hodně i na běžný ultrabook, natož na tablet s plnohodnotnými vnitřnostmi. Sice má tento produkt docela vysokou hmotn...
