Updating this
editAt some point we need to add something about the thinkpad x130e, and mention that the x120e is now being phased out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Livebriand (talk • contribs) 06:01, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
sure is dead in here

Reads more like a review site than an encyclopedia
editMost of the text covers what Engadget and other reviewer think about the specific Thinkpads, with very little specifics about the models themselves. There also are lots of errors and omissions (i.e. the X100e was also available in a dual core variant). The article needs a thorough rewrite from someone who actually knows the various models and didn't just copy reviews. I suggest that at least the mentioning of Engadget's and other reviewer's ratings gets removed as these are very subjective and violate the NPOV requirement. It also doesn't add anything of value to the topic. -- NotRegisteredAnonymous 00:27, 11 November 2012 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.82.82.198 (talk)
- I think this article should probably be merged with ThinkPad, which is updated more frequently and has less ad copy. Kendall-K1 (talk) 20:46, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
x1 reviews
editThe x1 reviews have gotten hopelessly garbled, partly as a result of automated scripts changing the ref names. The PC World info has been attributed to PC Mag, quotes don't appear in the sources, and I don't think we really need all those reviews anyway. I just took most of it out. If anyone wants to restore the removed material, please check that attributions and quotes are correct. Kendall-K1 (talk) 16:05, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
User Kendall-K1 seems to go around mostly removing links and sources to negative Lenovo reviews
editUser Kendall-K1 needs to declare if he/she has any conflicts of interest.

Tabulated information
editIt seems that much of this information could be put into a big table, and would probably be more useful in order to compare different models. For a good example, see the Samsung_Galaxy_S_series page.
Correct name for first-get Intel Integrated Graphics
editThe first-gen Core i series chips used in the x201 and x201s have "Intel HD Graphics", and I think "Intel GMA HD" isn't the best name since GMA: Graphics Media Accelerator and that branding was discontinued starting with the first-gen Core i series. This graphics chip goes by many names, including GMA HD, Arrandale HD Graphics, and Intel HD Graphics (Ironlake). "Arrandale HD Graphics" refers to the codename of the CPU generation, while "Ironlake" refers to the codename of the actual graphics chip, and is additionally used as the name by the Linux i915 graphics driver. Since this is a no-number graphics chip, there should be a good way to distinguish what generation this is. Some advice on which is the best to use. Newhacker1746 (talk) 03:42, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
- The source that we cite for this says "Intel GMA HD Integrated Graphics". If you're saying the source is wrong, I would want to see another source with different wording before changing anything here. Kendall-K1 (talk) 13:31, 8 April 2018 (UTC)
Touch Screen and Charger
editDoes anyone have information about which used the barrel charger and which the rectangle, at the end it shows the new ones with usb c — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1:F156:BD5E:49F6:DFA4:71EF:57B0 (talk) 12:08, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
- Barrel plug: All 11.6" netbooks, all 12" models up to X230 and X230 tablet (but rarely X230s have a rectangular port), all early 13" laptops (X300/X301 and first 2011's X1); Rectangular plug ("Slim Tip") - all Yoga and X1 series, and all 12" after X230s (such as X240 and beyond; USB-C plug - both models with current USB-C dock (X280, X1Carbon G6) and X380 Yoga, but X1CEG1 has a old rectangular charger port. 95.154.157.20 (talk) 22:53, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Achieve Consistency with ThinkPad T series?
editCurrently I've noticed that the two pages are written in completely different styles, and this is pretty messy- I doubt many people are coming to see details about a 20 year laptop. Geartooth The Pony Who Edits 02:08, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for a all article updates (also personally thanks for any grammar and style fixes, because the English isn't my own language, huh). About articles style - personally i will prefer a table-style pages (like a T-series), also i will work on a additional new templates for updating a table functionality (but WikiProject Computing works little slowly, ad no one gets a jot of interest about my little project). But it's a personal preference, and this choice based, maybe, only on a my writing ability. Also, i will work on a stub about a P series, but this page located inside a "User talk" namespace, and i can't move this article on a normal sandbox page without account registration (sorry for a this dizzy and illiterate mind flow). 95.154.157.20 (talk) 14:48, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
