Lenovo ThinkPad X230 Review

September 19, 2012: The ThinkPad is to personal computing what polka dots are to fashion – it’s a classic. Originally an IBM product, and taken over by Lenovo about seven years ago, the concept and construct of a ThinkPad has changed little over the years. The Japanese Bento-box inspired design remains largely unchanged with tweaks made only to improve ergonomics or adapt...

LaVie World’s Lightest Ultrabook

How light would you like your Ultrabook? If even 3 pounds seems to heavy to you, try packing the 13.3-inch NEC LaVie Z, which weighs a paper-light 1.9 pounds.

At just .59-inches thick, the LaVie Z is also one of the thinnest notebooks...

Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga Review

Lenovo’s IdeaPad Yoga 13, which starts at $1,000, is just one attempt to take advantage of Microsoft’s dual-sided operating system. Out of the box, it looks like a traditional notebook, but keep tilting the 13-inch touchscreen back along its hinge, and it folds all the way around until the clamshell is closed again. Only now, the screen is face-up, and the keyboard hangs...

The Acer Aspire S5 “world’s thinnest” Ultrabook measures just 15mm in depth at its thickest point. That’s 0.59 inches in old money. In comparison the MacBook Air is 0.68 inches and the Samsung Series 9 2nd Generation Ultrabook is 0.58 inches thick.
