Lenovo ThinkPad T430U review

 

The Lenovo ThinkPad T430u is the Ultrabook version of Lenovo's popular T range of business notebooks. It looks almost identical to its significantly more expensive cousin the T420, but the slim T430u stands just 21mm thick and weighs 1.9kg. It isn't...

Has great potential as a business Ultrabook, but its sharp and uncomfortable keyboard tray makes this one to avoid

Review Lenovo ThinkPad T430s Notebook

 

Slimmer without the drawbacks. The T430s is sold as both a thinner, lighter variant of the standard-size T430 and as a successor to the T420s with an AccuType keyboard. We find out in this review what sacrifices, if any, had been made in order to offer...

Review: Lenovo ThinkPad T430u

 

A few traits that run in the ThinkPad family – sturdy build, incredibly comfortable, surface “curvy”, and spaced out keyboard; a generous and responsive trackpad, and that iconic, impersonal (maybe dated) ThinkPad look. From that ancestral line comes...

If you want a notebook that’s IT-secure, ThinkPad-tough, SSD-snappy, and gives an incredible typing and trackpad experience, all within a familiar Windows 8 platform, then the Lenovo ThinkPad T430u should be on your list. This, mind you, is not a...

The Lenovo Thinkpad T430u ultrabook was unveiled just a couple of days back, so it was only natural to expect it ”in flesh and blood” at Lenovo's exhibition booth in Las Vegas at the CES. The guys at Lenovo didn't disappoint us in the least bit, so...
