Electronic Batteries Info

The good: Record-breaking battery life; strong performance for an ultraportable; comfortable full-size keyboard; wide-screen display with a sharp resolution; WWAN and GPS options. 9 Cells IBM Lenovo ThinkPad X200 Battery

The bad: Nine-cell battery adds significant weight; lacks an optical drive; includes pointing stick but no touch pad.

The bottom line: It lacks some basic features you may require–touch pad, optical drive–but 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.

Although the ThinkPad X300 gets all of the attention for cramming so many features into a sleek 13.3-inch notebook, not everyone has more than $2,500 to drop on a laptop. As the successor to the ThinkPad X61, the equally portable and more affordable ThinkPad X200 (starting at $1,199; our particular Centrino Pro configuration will be available August 5 for closer to two grand) skips the X300’s optical drive and makes a solid state drive optional while offering a slightly smaller 12.1-inch widescreen.

More important, it boasts better performance and battery life than the pricier X300, thanks to Intel’s new Centrino 2 platform. And as with every ThinkPad, you get a durable design, stellar keyboard, and the security features that define a first-rate business ultraportable.

Design
The ThinkPad X200 features a lightweight, rock-solid design with Lenovo’s standard matte black finish. Measuring 11.6 x 9.2 x 0.8 inches and weighing 3.8 pounds (with the beefy nine-cell battery) the system’s magnesium alloy frame is thicker and heavier than the featherweight MacBook Air but feels more durable.

All the usual ports and connections are on board, starting with two USB ports, Ethernet, VGA, and an ExpressCard slot on the left side (along with the Wi-Fi switch). The right side houses an additional USB port, headphone and mic jacks, and a modem connection. Up front is a lone SD Card reader. IBM thinkpad X200 USB 2.0 External Burner 8X DVD+-RW/RAM DRIVE

ThinkPads have been known for their sweet keyboards, and the X200 doesn’t disappoint. We loved the feel of the firm, responsive keys as we created documents in Word, and the spacious layout was conducive to an excellent typing experience. Unlike the X300, the X200 lacks a touchpad—we had to make due with just the TrackPoint—but we became acclimated to the responsive stick within a few minutes

Sub-notebooks are revolutionising the way we look at portable connectivity. Gone are the days, it seems, where you paid a pretty penny for a ridiculously small and lightweight piece of hardware. Nowadays £300 will get you a cool mini-notebook in iPod white and still leave you with change to spare.

We’ve previously looked at Asus’ 8.9″ Eee PC 900 and the HP 2133 Mini-note, but now MSI is releasing it’s first attempt to crack the sub-notebook market. The MSI Wind - make fart jokes at your peril.

Despite the fact that MSI told bit-tech it tried its absolute hardest to get the Wind to reach the £300 mark, what we’ve ended up with is closer to the £329 mark for the XP model instead. That’s not exactly a budget killing sum - it’s still cheaper than the HP - but it’s still more than Asus’ ubiquitous Eee PC 901.

Well, this is until we found the Linux version of the Wind on sale for a tidy £291.25. At this price it’s very much a bargain.

Another interesting fact picked up by eagle-eyed forum member Doug, is that you can pick up the near-identical MSI Advent 4211 laptop for even less. So, what exactly does the Wind offer us that the Advent and Eee PC does not? Let’s find out…

Unboxing the MSI Wind

Just like the Eee, the MSI comes in a tiny box with just a few goodies inside - a bulky but secure wallet to keep it in, a Li-ion battery and the matching power brick charger and all the documentation you’ll ever need but never read. Warranties, yuck!

Immediate reactions are mixed. The leather-feel wallet isn’t quite as nice as the neoprene wallet you get with the Asus EeePC 901, however it is padded for extra protection and comes with an internal net to hold all your USB sticks and gizmos in.

The Wind’s wallet is also bigger and bulkier than you might like. With just the Wind inside it the wallet swells to 290×220x50mm (HxWxD). That size sure isn’t going to leave your tote-bag busting at the seams, but if you plan to carry a portable mouse, MP3 player and so on with you as well then you might want to be just a tiny bit wary.

The good news though is that the faux leather finish on the Wind’s wallet, plus the zip and extra padding, mean that it’ll be a lot safer than it would be in a thin neoprene envelope. While it might be a more snug fit inside your bag, at least it will be better protected.

The battery meanwhile is physically far larger than that of the EeePC 901 and as a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) rather than Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) it should have a better potential battery life too. Unfortunately the three cell is a pathetic - MSI reckons it can only manage to squeeze out two and a half hours without wireless, but we’ll test that later. There is a 6-cell available which should double the battery life available to a more respectable ~5 hours, but at the moment it looks like an optional extra to keep costs down.

Of course, at bit-tech we can just do a vague hardware overview. Flip the page for an in-depth discussion of the hardware used in the MSI Wind…
