Mini-notebooks, as before, to lead in sales among other types of PCs. We can not exclude that even business users succumb to the temptation to buy a laptop at a low price. Although the high demands, for example, to input devices or ports, the majority of mini-laptops are not too competitive. Lenovo ThinkPad X200s from targeted specifically at this target group.
Lenovo is positioning its Ideapads, for example, S10e, as modern successful models in the market segment of mini-laptops to 10-inches. Main target audience - professional business customers and private users with high demands, which are known to attract high-quality input devices Thinkpad.
Lenovo offers a number of models around this size - for example, Thinkpad X61s or series X200. These lines, X200 and X200s, distinguished by the presence of the optical drive. X200s is positioned as an extremely thin and lightweight. According to the Lenovo, version X200s has a body with increased strength.
Model Thinkpad X300 Serie, we tested previously, is equipped with a larger screen - 13.3 inches.
HULL
Despite the usual size of about subnotebook 300h200 millimeters, at first glance Thinkpad X200s seems very compact, and even a miniature. Laptop Keyboard occupying almost the entire body, barely leaving room to trim the edges, and secondly, the Lenovo is no touchpad.
"How, then, to work?" - You ask. Well, the lack of the touchpad is not too critical, because as a mobile substitute for the mouse can be used trekpad.
In addition, the model X200s Lenovo is an improved frame body, which device provides greater strength. Used exclusively high-tech materials, such as magnesium frame at the base of the notebook or surface components of carbon and fiberglass.
Nearly indestructible body Thinkpad X200s.
Special design of the screen makes it possible to cover such tricks, such as the opportunity to raise the 1350-gram Thinkpad X200s for the outer corner of the screen. This experience is not recommended for other laptops. The screen is almost insensitive to the application of pressure.
Reason laptop and meet the same strength. The tray body made of magnesium does not allow for virtually no deformation. Deformations can be seen only in the plastic region for the rest of the palms and they are minimal.
The hinges of the screen is not impressive, but have traditional quality Thinkpad; they are made from a single piece of metal. When closed, the screen is pressed tightly to the base (design "clamshell"), so that the interior (keyboard and screen) are protected from dirt and dust, in addition, provides additional protection for the screen in the event fall.
A few words about the design of the notebook. Hardly based notebook n EIDET place to design chips because the keyboard takes all the available space. Area for palms is functional and ergonomic shape. X200s - true Thinkpad, which does not need designer trinkets or even color accents. Of course, this does not apply to red trekpointu in the middle of the keyboard.
INTERFACES
Except for the location of the docking port on the bottom side, even more awkward is the placement of a number of ports on the front of the notebook. Plug and cables attached to the side panels may be, at least, are disconnected from the equipment. But the front USB-ports are particularly annoying, especially when you connect a mouse or a LAN, which is located on the left side, quite close to the edge.
In addition Lenovo provides only the most necessary interfaces: 3 ports USB 2.0, VGA-out, LAN and modem. Additional connectors are on the dock, including a digital video output (DVI, the monitor port) to connect to an external monitor.
