Portable Business Laptop
The Lenovo ThinkPad X220 is a 12.5-inch touchscreen laptop built for mobile professionals. It ships new with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, an Intel Core i7-2640M processor reaching 3.50 GHz turbo frequency, 16GB DDR3 memory and a 256GB solid-state drive. The HD display runs at 1366x768 resolution with touch input and pen support.
Connectivity and Expansion
Three USB ports provide peripheral connections while VGA and DisplayPort outputs handle external monitors. A Gigabit LAN port and 802.11b/g/n wireless cover wired and wireless networking. The docking connector allows shared workstation setups with compatible ThinkPad series laptops. Shared system memory handles graphics duties without a discrete adapter.
Upgrade Context
This configuration replaces slower hard-drive systems with a 256GB SSD and maximises memory at 16GB DDR3 for responsive multitasking. The jump is worthwhile for users needing touch and pen input on a durable, lightweight chassis with a spill-resistant keyboard. Buyers requiring a dedicated graphics processor or higher-resolution panel should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
Does the Core i7-2640M hit its 3.50 GHz turbo ceiling before the shared DDR3 memory bandwidth limits performance?
