"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."
"Equipped with the new Centrino 2 processor, Lenovo's ThinkPad X200 looks a mild-mannered ultraportable, and yet it can leap tall workloads in a single bound."
"When it comes to day-to-day mobile usage the X200 will be an ideal tool for anyone who wants something small and light but does not want to sacrifice on performance or usability, especially concerning their keyboard."
"Lenovo has just announced their newest ultra-portable, the X200... I've been fortunate enough to have used the X200 over the last several days and let me tell you - it flies!!! If this is any indication of the future X200 Tablet PC, I can't wait!"

"The X200 is a classy business notebook that leaves little to complain about, especially considering its price point."
"The Bottom Line: The Test Center can recommend both the ThinkPad X200 and the ThinkPad SL 400. In fact, the X200 is now giving the X300 a run for its money for the title of year's best notebook."
"Lenovo's heralded "rock solid" design? Check. An ample amount of ports stuffed into a lightweight package? Check. A price tag that's on the good side of reasonable? Check. Laptop has just awarded Lenovo's recently announced X200 ultraportable an Editor's Choice award after determining that what it has is likely what you'll want."
"...we'd choose it over the MacBook Air simply because it's just as portable but a lot more flexible.."
Digital Trends, April 2008
"After years of looking, I may just have found the perfect PC for business...The Lenovo ThinkPad X300 is impressive laptop and a worthy addition to the ThinkPad line-up that will appeal to globetrotting executives and road warriors who demand the ultimate in portability without compromising functionality."
"Both the Air and the X300 are extremely impressive and should satisfy their users, but the ThinkPad X300 is a better device for serious work on the road."
"After visiting the Apple store last week, I would have purchased the MacBook Air had I had the money. I'm glad I waited until I got my hands on the X300. WOW!! I'm amazed every time I pick up the X300 at how light and well balanced it is."

"If I were custom-designing a notebook to make my business travel easier, the ThinkPad X300 would be it."
"Oh my, fancy that! The X300 has more ports, better battery life, and sports an optical drive - STANDARD. Suddenly, revolutionAIRY needs a packet of CATCH-UP."
"Right off the top, I'm impressed and will go out on a limb and predict that the X 300 could become the standard against which future generations portable computers aimed at executive and other "power users" will be judged."
