Despite sounding as though it is a dainty machine, the T440s still packs quite a durable punch, making it an uncompromising machine for the most discerning professionals. (more…)

    Lenovo outs five new ThinkPads, including a 15-inch business Ultrabook

    Lenovo outs five new ThinkPads, including a 15-inch business Ultrabook

    It was just last spring at Engadget Expand that Lenovo teased the ThinkPad T431s business Ultrabook, and now it’s already coming out with a follow-on product. The company today announced the refreshed T440s, along with the T440, the X240 (shown above) and two mid-range Ultrabooks, the S440 and the S540. In fact, though the S540 isn’t the highest-end machine on offer here, even that’s worth mention, as it’s the company’s first 15-inch Ultrabook aimed at businesses. (Guess that bigger-screen trend is going strong, eh?)

    Diving right in, the 14-inch T440s represents a fairly modest upgrade, as the T431s already ushered in some fairly big design changes (buttonless trackpad, latchless lid, 180-degree hinge, et cetera). The T440s has all that too, except it makes the natural shift to Intel’s fourth-generation Haswell processors, along with an optional NVIDIA GeForce GT 730M GPU (which won’t be offered here in North America). The T440 is closely related, as you’d expect, with similar configuration options (optional touchscreens, up to 12GB of RAM and up to either a 1TB HDD or a 512GB SSD). The main difference is that the resolution on the T440 is also capped at 1,600 x 900, whereas the T440s goes up to 1080p. Also, the T440s is a good lighter than the T440 (read: half a pound less).%Gallery-slideshow73415%

    Lenovo’s Windows 8 PCs to bundle SweetLabs’ Start menu replacement, app store

    Lenovo's Windows 8 devices to bundle SweetLabs' Start menu revival, app store

    Software developers and PC vendors have frequently catered to reluctant Windows 8 buyers with Start menu replicas, and that trend doesn’t appear to be slowing down. Lenovo has just reached a deal that will bundle SweetLabs’ Pokki suite with its Windows 8 PCs, including a Start menu replacement, an app store and a game arcade. The two companies haven’t said which particular systems will first ship with Pokki, although the deal starts with consumer-focused devices and will spread to include multiple PCs across the IdeaCentre, IdeaPad and ThinkPad lines. The SweetLabs agreement should cheer those who want the old Windows experience or an alternative software store. The bundle may prove bittersweet for Microsoft, however — it usually wants Windows PC buyers to embrace the future.

    How would you change Lenovo’s ThinkPad X1 Carbon?

    DNP  Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon review dark and angular meets thin and light

    Lenovo’s ThinkPad X1 Carbon is such a beautiful piece of hardware that we’re having trouble concentrating. With that carbon fiber chassis, the Ultrabook is thin, light and classily understated. Even packing Ivy Bridge internals, it still managed to crank out five hours of battery life and, aside from its slightly weak display, stands head and shoulders above other skinny carbon laptops we could mention. But what about you high-rollers who splashed out upwards of $1,400 on one of these things? Here’s the time for you to share your experiences and tell us what you would change.

    Lenovo ThinkPad Helix review

    Lenovo ThinkPad Helix review

    It’s been six months since Lenovo launched the ThinkPad Helix at CES, but during that time we’ve never really stopped talking about it. Every time we’ve reviewed a comparable product — a small-ish PC that could be used in some sort of tablet mode — we’ve returned to the Helix as a beacon of what could be in this category. All told, the Helix has had a few things potentially recommending it: it rocks the same sturdy, well-spaced keyboard you’ll find on other ThinkPads and a spec list that includes NFC, a Wacom pen digitizer and a high-quality, 11.6-inch, 1080p display. Best of all, the Helix can be used in three ways: not just in tablet mode, but with the tablet inserted either facing the user or pointed away, a design Lenovo is calling “Rip n’ Flip.” It’s the sort of versatility we loved so much in Lenovo’s Yoga line; only this is a more compact machine with a higher-res screen and pen input. Sounds lovely, right? Read on to see if it’s as good in practice as it is on paper.
