5.0 out of 5 stars great laptop, February 28, 2009

This review is from: Lenovo 64781TU X300 13.3-Inch Laptop (1.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SL7100 Processor, 2 GB RAM, 64 GB Solid State Drive, XP Pro) (Personal Computers)

I have own it for more than half a year now. It is a great laptop. The most enjoyable feature is its light weight. I travel a lot and it saves my back. What's amazing is that in this slick baby it comes with 3 USB ports, a ultra-compact DVD that helps me enjoy movies on the go, a built-in cam and mic, and much more. The sound of the speakers, which are hide within the case, is great! Much better than many other laptop speakers. This is very convenient when you are in a hotel room and have no access to good surround sound systems, yet would like to enjoy a little piece of movie without plug you ears with uncomfortable earphones.

The only little disappointment is its battery life. I bought one that claimed to last 6 hours, but at most it last about 4 hours. After half a year, it now lasts about 2 hours. I wish this can be improved.

Overall, I love it. I will recommend this one to my friends if the portability is their major concern in choosing a laptop.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the best laptops I've had. Surprised about other reviews, January 1, 2009

This review is from: Lenovo 64781TU X300 13.3-Inch Laptop (1.2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SL7100 Processor, 2 GB RAM, 64 GB Solid State Drive, XP Pro) (Personal Computers)

I love how sturdy and lightweight the X300 is. Like most Thinkpads, it looks deceivingly simple (plain black), this is great because it doesn't attract too much attention when traveling in not so safe areas.

One thing that often gets ignored, but it ends up being very important, is the dimensions and weight of the AC adapter; the one that comes with the X300 is very small.


I got mine with 4GB RAM which can only be fully used with a 64-bit OS. I installed Ubuntu and I was quite pleased that most things worked "out of box", even the built-in CDMA modem and webcam!

The solid state drive is great but I am not sure it's worth the high price. It's a small drive, which is fine for most people, but the newer model (x301) has a much bigger disk.

The WLAN is fantastic. I got the Verizon service and its coverage is very good.

I used to have a Sony Vaio before this one and I really appreciate the built-in mic. Also, the Vaio was very fragile, this one is much tougher.

Lenovo's customer service is good, much better than Sony, Acer or HP.

Battery life is average, I wish it was better. I also wish it had a SD card reader. I don't give it 5 stars just because of that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Will never buy another Lenovo, September 16, 2008

Just getting this machine from Lenovo was difficult. Absolutely the worst customer service ever. The product itself is ok; thin? yes light? yes. But the positives pretty much end there. This thing is so buggy someone in China should be very embarrassed. Constant issues and crashing on a $3,000 machine is simply not acceptable. The screen and battery life leave a lot to be desired IMO as well. Save your money; buy something for half the price that actually works.
