Lenovo ThinkPad X300 Review – Trusted Reviews

Lenovo-ThinkPad-X300-Trusted-Reviews.jpg

Trusted Reviews have published a review of the Lenovo ThinkPad X300 Notebook. ‘Lenovo has also been smart enough to equip the screen on the X300 with a native resolution of 1,440 x 900, instead of the more common 1,280 x 800, and believe me, that extra desktop space really does make a difference. That said, it's the screen that represents one of the very few weak points on the X300. Like many thin and light notebooks, the X300 employs an LED backlighting system, which brings with it benefits but also problems. When Sony pioneered LED backlights in its TX1XP machine, it suffered from seriously uneven lighting, with significant light bleed running along the bottom edge of the screen.

With several generations of development under its belt, Sony has pretty much eradicated those problems and now its LED based LCD screens are, quite simply, stunning. Lenovo on the other hand, clearly doesn't have the same experience with this technology and like the early Sony screens, the lighting across the display surface is fairly uneven. There's also discernable light bleed at both the top and bottom edges.’
