Fans of
ThinkPad keyboards will love the keyboard.
In 1996 the idea was patented and right up until today the pointing stick is still integrated into Lenovo
ThinkPad keyboards.
But the display is dim and bland, and the keyboard, which is good, just doesn't feel as great as the legendary
ThinkPad keyboards that we're used to.
Lenovo's
ThinkPad keyboards and trackpads have a reputation for excellence, and the T470s lives up to that reputation.
The ThinkPad Keyboard comes in black, red or gray and promises a «ThinkPad classic typing experience,» replete with a TrackPoint.
The case has a bonafide
ThinkPad keyboard inside, connects to the tablet via USB; and when paired with the tablet, it folds up into a nifty, well - integrated package that's thinner and lighter than the Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 when paired with its keyboard dock.
This positioning is on purpose, though:
The ThinkPad Keyboard Folio case ($ 100) provides a wired keyboard that plugs into the USB port, includes a nifty, easy - glide optical TrackPoint mouse alternative, and folds up into a nifty carry - case combo that packs easily into a suitcase, and works well on the airplane tray table, too.
This tablet lets you add a presenter module that includes a pico projector and HDMI port,
ThinkPad keyboard, including trackpoint, which can snap onto the tablet, additional battery and even a 3D imaging module with its rear - facing Intel RealSense camera.
By itself, the ThinkPad X1 Tablet weighs just 2.4 pounds with Lenovo's classic
ThinkPad keyboard and TrackPoint, complete with three colors and adjustable angles.
For this reviewer, used to
a ThinkPad keyboard with stiff keys and long travel distance, it really takes some adjusting to.
The TrackPoint is that tiny red nub between the G and H keys on
a ThinkPad keyboard that performs the function of a mouse or keyboard.
You'll find the iconic
ThinkPad keyboard under the display, along with a Microsoft Precision touchpad (with physical buttons, if that's your thing) as well as the only think more iconic than the keyboard: the ThinkPad TrackPoint red nipple in the middle.
The classic
ThinkPad keyboard is here, along with the TrackPoint and physical buttons.
A new vibrant 13 - inch 3K display compatible with HDR, an improved full - function
ThinkPad keyboard experience and optional global LTE - A connectivity offer uncompromised productivity and mobility.
The island - style keyboard is a typical
ThinkPad keyboard; in other words, it is awesome.
The island - style keyboard is a typical
ThinkPad keyboard.
The classic
ThinkPad keyboard is here in all its glory, there are all the ports you need, and the 14 - inch, 1440p display is a stunner.
Having said that, this is the closest thing to
a ThinkPad keyboard available for any tablet, and is among the nicest tablet keyboards we've used.
Of course, certain compromises had to be made to fit a keyboard into a small cover, so don't expect the full
ThinkPad keyboard experience.
The device, which comes complete with
a ThinkPad keyboard and ThinkPad Pen Pro, starts at $ 1,449 with a seventh - generation Intel Core i5 - 7Y54 processor, 8 GB of RAM, and 128G SSD.
The second set, known as the Productivity Pack, will come as a folio case with a Bluetooth
ThinkPad keyboard featuring an integrated trackpad.
There's the usual
ThinkPad keyboard with its extensive seven - row keyboard and generally solid feel — it has plenty of travel and a comfortable bottoming action, but it's a bit loose and lacks the precision of its ThinkPad X1 Carbon sibling.
The comfortable
ThinkPad keyboard and touchpad make an appearance, and eight ports, including HDMI, Ethernet, and USB, offer plenty of connectivity.
It retains the features that we like, including a thin, yet sturdy carbon fiber and magnesium construction, a good selection of I / O ports, and that excellent
ThinkPad keyboard.
Not exact matches
I thought, before the horrible realization set in that there is no trackpad on the
ThinkPad Tablet 2's
keyboard accessory.
In fairness, Lenovo does want you to be able to plug a mouse,
keyboard, and monitor into the
ThinkPad Tablet 2, and use it like a desktop — that's the third device this and most Windows 8 devices claim to be.
Partly because it's a «black box» — though if that were the only requirement, basically every tablet on the planet other than the white iPad would qualify — but mostly because an extra $ 119.99 buys you a Bluetooth
keyboard / stand combo that will feel instantly familiar to anyone who's laid fingers on a
ThinkPad laptop.
The «give a mouse a cookie» side of me wishes there were a docking
keyboard with a second battery that would add life to the
ThinkPad Tablet instead of draining it via Bluetooth, but I guess I can't have it all.
Unfortunately, $ 679 is only the starting point for the
ThinkPad Tablet 2, and the math gets ugly fast: by the time you add the absolutely necessary
keyboard accessory and a case to hold everything, you're paying well over $ 800 for a device that absolutely can't be your only computer.
Like the
ThinkPad Tablet, the Jetstream offers haptic feedback that vibrates whenever you tap the
keyboard or any of the icons in the main system toolbar.
A «Kaby Lake» update to Lenovo's flagship business tablet, the
ThinkPad X1 Tablet Gen 2 stands out for its MIL - SPEC design and best - in - class detachable
keyboard.

Thinkpad Windows 8 tablet shown
Lenovo has confirmed that its Windows 8 - powered
ThinkPad Tablet 2 will cost $ 799 with a bundled
keyboard when it launches next month.
Then there's the
ThinkPad Tablet which seems to combine functions of the Transformer with the Flyer by offering a dockable folio with full
keyboard and mouse, which folds down like a netbook, as well as an active digitizer for digital inking and notetaking.
ThinkPad Tablet comes with an optional digitiser pen, a full - size USB port, full - size SD card slot, and mini-HDMI for connecting to external projectors and displays, as well as an optional
ThinkPad quality
Keyboard Folio Case with optical TrackPoint.
Lenovo offers a compact Bluetooth
keyboard dock that combines wonderfully with the
ThinkPad Tablet 2; but there's a problem, the optional dock costs an additional $ 120.
Serious users looking to purchase the Lenovo
ThinkPad Tablet 2 should consider the added price of the $ 120
keyboard add - on before making a purchase decision.
You also get what at first glance looks like a traditional
ThinkPad TrackPoint (a rubberized mini-joystick touchpad alternative), but the little red nubbin nestled in the
keyboard here is actually an optical trackpad.
The
ThinkPad Helix will be sold with a choice of
keyboard docks.
Design The VivoTab Smart is a small 10 - inch tablet, similar to the Acer Iconia Tab W510 - 1422 or the Asus Vivo Tab RT, but with a Bluetooth
keyboard instead of a docking
keyboard for laptop functionality — similar to the Lenovo
ThinkPad Tablet 2, except without the stand built into the
keyboard.
Aside from its stylus, which we'll cover in a moment, the
ThinkPad's Folio
keyboard and case combo is a great productivity accessory.
By comparison, the
ThinkPad Helix grows to 0.8 inches thick and its weight to 3.2 pounds with its
keyboard.
Combined, the
ThinkPad Helix weighs 3.8 pounds and measures 11.7 x 8.9 x 0.8 inches, which is heavier and larger than the HP Elitebook Revolve 810 (3 pounds, 11.2 x 8.4 x 0.8 inches), as well as the Samsung 700T, which weighs 3.6 pounds with its
keyboard dock.
If you've read our recent review of the Lenovo
ThinkPad X121e you'll know just how enamoured we were of that laptop's
keyboard, and amazingly the Folio's one is almost as accomplished.
Overall, the Helix should win over well - heeled executives who want the portability of a tablet, but the performance — and
keyboard — of a traditional
ThinkPad notebook.
The look, feel and mounting connection of the Ultrabook
Keyboard seemed nearly identical to the ThinkPad 10's optional keyboa

The only tablet that offers more versatility than the Prime is Lenovo's
ThinkPad tablet, which includes a pressure - sensitive stylus in addition to a
keyboard folio case that's great to type on.
The X200 Tablet sports a full - size, spill - resistant
keyboard, which of course has the comfortable, tried - and - true
ThinkPad design; the keys are very responsive and seem almost to leap back up to meet your fingers.
