Lenovo ThinkPad X280 review: Thinner and lighter at the cost of popular features
Did Lenovo remove too many features from its 12-inch X-series laptop?
Lenovo's update cycle to its "X" lineup of ThinkPad laptops, including the X1 Carbon, X1 Yoga, and X1 Tablet, hasn't ignored the X200 series. The ThinkPad X280 I have here is the successor to the X270 (which I also reviewed), and it's still marketed as a more smaller, more mobile business partner.
It's lighter and thinner than the X270, with a less boxy chassis and a few other design changes I can appreciate. However, it's also missing some of the features that I think business folks equate with a solid ThinkPad workhorse. Let's take a closer look in this review.
About this review
Lenovo supplied Windows Central with a review unit of the ThinkPad X280. This specific configuration has inside an eighth-gen Intel Core i5 processor (CPU), 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB solid-state drive (SSD). Expect to pay about $1,650 for this model.
