ThinkPad X Series

Putting the 'ultra' in ultraportable

ThinkPad X Series notebooks put the ultra in ultraportable. They're designed for on-the-go professionals who need maximum portability and light weight. And there's no trade-off in usability or durability. Our latest breakthrough - the amazing ThinkPad X300 - combines an ultra-thin DVD burner, Solid State storage and next-generation ThinkPad "roll cage" technology to create the thinnest, lightest full-featured notebook in the 13" widescreen class. And it's the "greenest" ThinkPad ever.

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.

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.

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.)

X Series models also come equipped 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.

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 X300, X301 models and select X200s models, next-generation ThinkPad "roll cage" technology utilizes a carbon-fiber/ 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 cover help to protect your 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, X61/X61s).
  
• 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.

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.

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.

Storage
X Series storage options are varied with choices to answer any need.
