CNET Asia Review

By Michelle Thatcher, CNET.com

Excellent

8.2

out of 10

The good: Record-breaking battery life; strong performance for an ultraportable; comfortable full-size keyboard; wide-screen display with a sharp resolution; WWAN and GPS options.

The bad: Nine-cell battery adds significant weight; lacks an optical drive; includes pointing stick but no touchpad.

The bottom line: It lacks some basic features you may require--touchpad, optical drive--but the 12.1-inch ThinkPad X200 offers strong performance and the longest battery life we've seen. With a variety of connectivity options and a roomy keyboard, the X200 makes a great ultraportable for road warriors.

Excellent performance!

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Light weight, long battery life, comes with 802.11n and Gigabit Ethernet.
Cons: No touchpad and DVD drive
Opinion:
The model has a solid build,leading performance and long battery life compare to its competitors.
It is a pity that it dose not come with a touch pad,which many users have already got used to it.
Although a build-in DVD drive is missing in its design, I am not too concern about it as I do not use it most of the time, how many people likes to carry extra weight when they are on the road?

I find the biometric fingerprint reader is too close to the palm-rest area, it can easily cause an annoying accident scan pop-up error message.
