12.5 inch Lenovo ThinkPad X260 coming in February for $929 and up

01/04/2016 at 12:45 AM by Brad Linder Leave a Comment

Looking for a compact laptop that’s a little more affordable than the new Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon? The new ThinkPad X260 might not have a carbon fiber case, but this 12.5 inch notebook has a starting price of $929, which makes it almost $300 cheaper than the X1 Carbon.

Measuring 0.8 inches thick and weighing 2.9 pounds, the Lenovo ThinkPad X260 is a little thicker and heavier than the 14 inch X1 Carbon, but it does have a few things going for it, including an optional PowerBridge battery which Lenovo says could provide up to 21 hours of total battery life.

Lenovo will offer models with up to a Core i7 Skylake processor, up to 16GB of RAM, up to 512Gb of RAM, and with optional WiGig and 4G capabilities. The notebook has three USb 3.0 ports, a mini DisplayPort, HDMI, an Ethernet jack, and SD card reader.

I really, really, REALLY hope Lenovo will forget those horrible TN+f WXGA screens this time around.

Also, Brad: 512Gb of RAM is a bit much, don’t you think? 🙂

5/7 people are too young to understand that reference, and 140% are too old to understand the 5/7 reference.

The problem I have with the proliferation of Lenovo’s SKUs is that
you can’t tell anymore which models have mass storage that you
can upgrade. You have to look for YouTube videos that show which
model(s) have easily accessible drive bays.

Man, back when I was in grad school (about 8 years ago) I really enjoyed my X200s. It was [relatively] thin and light, and got decently good battery life. Since then, however, this product hasn’t evolved much, design-wise, and it’s now pretty much behind the times. Compared to more svelte models like the XPS 13, they’re just thick and bulky, with an unnecessarily large bezel and a crappy display panel. This is really disappointing, because this series used to be the gold standard among ultraportables. Perhaps the only thing going for it are the keyboard and trackpad, which remain my favorite among laptops. But this isn’t enough to keep me loyal to the product.

Are you listening, Lenovo? For the love of God, consider a major design overhaul. Your lack of ingenuity is killing this once-wonderful product line.
