Lenovo Thinkpad X60s Notebook Review

Despite the long and respected history of the Thinkpad, there is a lot of competition in the ultraportable market. Sony has a few good systems, Panasonic’s Toughbooks are better than ever, and Dell has the D420 which is quite affordable. Even considering all this, the X60s remains to be a very desirable computer and a great pick. This system is not cheap, but it works well, is very light, and has a great battery life. These qualities make it competitive, but what seems to push it over the top are the extras, like the refined design, readiness for business use, and function keys, SD card reader, and software package.

During testing the X60s performed up to all expectations, which were high given the product’s price. It was extremely easy to move around, held up to the punishment of daily use, and it allowed for the type of mobile productivity that a high demand user requires… there are not many notebooks which can compete with the X60s.
