Lenovo ThinkPad X100e is not as expected
The X100e is as efficient as a netbook while the battery life is not impressive.
The sample version of Lenovo Thinkpad X100e appeared a few weeks ago. This is one of the first laptops to use AMD's Athlon Neo 1.6 GHz processor. This model is also equipped with ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics chip and 11.6-inch widescreen display with a resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels. X100e has more choice of processor processor Neo 1.4 GHz, even with unofficial information that, it also has the option of Intel Centrino 2 ULV processor and Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics chip.
X100e has a number of differences compared to the previous Thinkpad line. This model has a good keyboard and trackpad but is a bit like a netbook. AMD Athlon Neo MV-40 processors also offer low performance. Battery life does not meet expectations, just over 3 hours.
Basically, the machine has no different appearance compared to previous ThinkPads with plastic frames and the surface does not cling to fingerprints. The distinctive 6-cell protruding rear battery. The ThinkPad logo is still placed on the top right corner. The difference of this model is that it uses a Chiclet keyboard and a slightly different layout of keys. In addition, the USB port of the device can still charge for mobile devices even when the device is turned off.
The X100e works fine in normal mode but is quite slow when in battery saving mode. In some simple tests of Notebooked pages, the Athlon Neo MV-40 is integrated into the X100e even less than the standard Intel Celeron SU2300 1.20 GHz processor.
The new product of the Thinkpad line has a low use efficiency and the battery life is not impressive, so it is believed that Lenovo still seems to be struggling to escape the big shadow of the line. IBM's classic Thingpad.
