Reviews for the Lenovo ThinkPad X240
Pioneer. The 12.5-inch ThinkPad of the X series has been completely revamped - while still staying true to the core strengths of its well-made predecessors. Mobility, flexibility, ergonomics and great build quality are characteristics which are not cherished among business customers alone. Our detailed review will show where the ThinkPad X240 fares better than those before it.

The X240 is for those of you who want larger laptop amenities in a small chassis, from the internal upgrade possibilities to plenty of ports. It's rare to see wired RJ-45 Ethernet on a 12.5" machine for example, and the Lenovo also has a mini DisplayPort, VGA, two USB 3.0 ports, 3.5mm combo audio, an SD card slot and SIM card slot (for models with 3G/4G).

Unlike the X230, which merely substituted the traditional (and excellent) ThinkPad keyboard with a nearly-equivalent AccuType Chiclet-style model, the X240 brings some pretty striking changes to the table—and not all of them are necessarily positive. For starters, in the definitely negative category, there’s the new clickpad design, which is difficult to operate, cheap-feeling, and rickety in comparison to previous models—hardly a suitable replacement for physical buttons. In addition to that, we’ve also lost another USB port (bringing the grand total to just two USB 3.0 ports), and the once-fabled 1080p screen option appears to have vanished into thin air (to be continued…). The build is also notably compromised in a few areas, with some un-ThinkPad-like creakiness in the center near the touchpad and between the hinges at the top of the base unit. It’s still great overall, but not as great as it once was.

Lenovo's ThinkPad X240 is a 12.5in Ultrabook that's small and sturdy, yet comfortable to use. Most importantly, it's a very reliable machine, and it has a dual battery system that allows for a very long run time away from an outlet. It's one of the best little business machines on the market.

You might think the ThinkPad X240 is too thick and too heavy to qualify for Ultrabook designation, but it’s only 0.79 inches thick and it weighs just 3 pounds. And there’s a very good reason why the X240 doesn’t taper to a knife edge like the X1 Carbon does: The X240 is outfitted with two batteries and a battery bridge that enables you to swap a depleted battery for one that’s fully charged without turning the machine off. That’s slick.

Messing with a winning formula is always a dicey proposition (just ask the New England Patriots), so in updating its popular ThinkPad X series ultraportable, Lenovo took a measured approach. The latest-generation ThinkPad X240 delivers the features and durability you'd expect, along with astonishing battery life.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X240 is a powerful business laptop sporting a Core i5 Haswell CPU, a speedy solid-state drive, and a 12.5-inch IPS touch-screen display. You'll pay top dollar for this well-built ultrabook, but it'll give you over 15 hours of battery life in return.

The ThinkPad X240 offers plentiful configuration options, tried-and-trusted design, solid build quality and a twin battery configuration that delivers long battery life. Overall, this is an excellent business ultrabook.

The Lenovo Thinkpad X240 is a classic. We’ve never tested something with this much battery life potential and the connectivity (hard and radio) along with the excellent working fascia make it a compact workhorse that can be relied-on. It’s not stylish and it’s even a little heavy for an Ultrabook and maybe, maybe Lenovo took a step back in terms of touchpad design but those are the trade-offs you’ll have to consider. We would recommend going for an SSD-based version unless you really need that storage capacity. We counted 5 screen/touch/IPS options and as always, this Thinkpad comes with various security options along with the usual CPU and RAM choices. Windows 7 versions come, we believe, with Windows 8 licence so you don’t have to make that choice today. Take note of the fan noise report if you’re doing performance work in quiet areas.

There’s a lot to like about the X240—especially if Lenovo delivers on the optional 1080p IPS panel in the near future. The company has tweaked a few things here and there, mostly for the better (although we still miss the rubber-like lid), while leaving much of what was already excellent about the X230 alone.

The all-new Lenovo ThinkPad X240 is a lightweight business-oriented laptop that delivers extremely long battery life, decent performance and a touch screen display. For business-use, the design is absolutely perfect but it does have a lower than average screen resolution.

With powerful performance, a durable design and more than 20 hours of battery life, the Lenovo ThinkPad X240 is the business ultraportable to beat. Productivity-minded users looking for a better typing experience should consider the 14-inch ThinkPad T440s, which weighs 0.6 pounds more and lasts only 14 hours on a charge.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X240 is a small, robust, and all-around solid laptop that offers everything you need in a small system without being boisterous or in your face about it. The feel of the laptop is excellent, being a nice mixture of lightweight and small without coming across as flimsy or fragile. The display is solid on its hinges, as well, and the keyboard has the ever-popular strong report that ThinkPads are known for. At no point did I have to battle with the trackpad, which is something worth noting considering how often a trackpad has small peculiarities to which one must adjust. Even under heavy usage, the computer remained fairly cool and the fan, though running, was only audible when putting it up near your ear.

For me, that price is too steep when competitors like the MacBook Air offer all-day endurance in a larger, lighter frame. The ThinkPad X240 is inarguably an impressive display of what's possible in mobile computing today. You'll find few, if any, other laptops that offer this many hardware features at 12.5 inches. But what good are those features if the product struggles to compete elsewhere? For one, the typing experience on a laptop is paramount, because you're ultimately stuck with what you get. In this regard, the X240 fails to live up to Lenovo's legacy, at least with the unit I've been typing on for the past week.

Whether you're a long-time ThinkPad enthusiast or a newbie, the X240 is an excellent example of why the brand has been so successful for so many years. Solid performance and a durable design make this ultrabook an ideal travel companion, and its incredible 15-plus hour battery life is hard to beat. A higher resolution screen would be nice, but considering this is a business-class laptop that's not really a deal breaker and doesn't prevent the X240 from becoming our newest Editors' Choice for business ultrabooks.
