Form factor is a lot nicer than the Macbook Pro - a pound lighter and the screen tilts back for tall people. The keyboard is exquisite. Power adaptor is compatible with previous Thinkpads. Built in Webcam seems ok | Form factor is a lot nicer than the Macbook Pro - a pound lighter and the screen tilts back for tall people. It's basic black and seems robust. The keyboard is exquisite. Power adaptor is compatible with previous Thinkpads. Built in Webcam seems ok. Volume rocker is a bit creaky. Keyboard changes are interesting, though large "delete" and "esc" keys are for negative people. | ||

Fan makes some noise in a quiet environment. It would be really nice if there were less bezel. Skipping the mic input is strange since there's so much space around the edge, but at least they moved the wireless switch from the front. The coloured power button is pointless, the machine has a belly button? But not having an indicator for AC status, as on the previous versions, is criminal. It does barely get warm, but right in the center, the worst spot for a laptop. DVD drive is pointless these days. Battery should be larger capacity versions. DisplayPort should be form compatible with Macbooks and pass audio. | Fan makes some noise in a quiet environment. It would be really nice if there were less bezel.
