重點(個人認為)節錄如下:
In this ThinkPad T420, ThinkPad T420s and ThinkPad T520 Review we are going to cover the new features in depth. Release date will be the first week in March!
開頭第一段說了三月的第一個禮拜
........ThinkPad T420s............ Coming in at under 4lbs and equipped with the second generation Intel® Core™ i3-2310M (2.10 GHz Sandy Bridge Processor) as the base option and going up to the Intel® Core™ i7-2620M (2.7 GHz, up to 8MB Ram） and NVIDIA NVS Optimus Graphics
T410s 的重量, NVIDIA 還有CPU options
Equipped with Dolby Home Theater Audio (yes, in a ThinkPad!), the combination of Graphics capabilities and raw processing power, we have a really serious laptop for both work and entertainment!
T系列配有 杜比....
ThinkPad T420s Specifications
* Video – Display Port + VGA
* 3 USB ports consisting of one USB 2.0, one USB Always-On and a USB 3.0 port
* 34mm Express Card and 4 in 1 SD Card
* Dual Array Digital Microphones with a 720p HD Camera
* the option of NVIDIA Optimus NVS 4200M with 1GB VRAM
* up to Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300 3×3 AGN
* a choice of Wireless including Gobi 3000 – Ericsson HSPA+ WWAN Minicard
– LeadCore TD-SCDMA WWAN Minicard or the Huawei EV-DO WWAN Minicard
* There is also an option for a 4GB SSD, plus SSD configurations from 128GB SSD up to 160GB SSD
* T420s will also now standardize on the ThinkPad Series 3 Port Replicator’s and Mini Docks, allowing up to 3 active displays at
once
* Hard Drives start at 160GB 7200rpm – to 320GB 7200rpm with the option of Rapid Drive incorporating the Intel® 80GB Micro
SSD.
這裡就看不太懂....1.8 吋的有了7200 rpm? 亦或是改成 2.5?
The ThinkPad T420 starts with the Intel® Core™ i3-2310M Processor and goes up to the Intel® Core™ i7-2620M 2.70GHz, whilst the ThinkPad T520 goes all the way to Intel Core™ i7-2820QM 2.30GHz. Now, this isn’t the most powerful of the new Sandy Bridge chips, but its pretty close. It is only about 90% short of the ‘Extreme’ versions of the new processor line up, and is really designed for use in high end multimedia notebooks, so this is going to be some powerful ThinkPad T520.
T420 CPU Option, T520將會多出 i7-2820QM
So with the new 12EUs Graphics cores in the 2nd generation iCore processors, and the NVIDIA® NVS 4200M Discrete Graphics with 1GB Video RAM, we are going to see some pretty staggering performance. Initial benchmarks suggest that your building is going to have to be on some good foundations when you fire the new ThinkPad T520 up!
T520 會爆炸 麻煩各位使用者加強房子的地基
.........The tiny little Intel SSD drive that makes all this possible is 1/8 the size of a normal 2.5-inch SSD. The Intel SSD 310 is under a ¼” (5mm) thick with 80GB capacity. Performance is also pretty impressive with Intel claiming that the SSD 310 provides the same performance as its X25 drives. The 80GB Micro Drive is strapped on (metaphorically) to the conventional drive, to form a performance and storage hybrid!
新的 Intel SSD
Lenovo have achieved amazing battery life benchmarks with the new T Series. The ThinkPad T420 gets up to 30 hours with the 9 cell plus 9 cell ‘clip on’ slice battery.
......................With its standard 9-cell battery, the ThinkPad T420 delivers up to 15 hours of battery life with an amazing 30 hours with the clip on 9 cell slice. The T420s achieves up to 10 hours with its combined 6-cell and optional snap on 6-cell slice battery.
T420 標準 9 cell 電池有 15 小時, 而 30 小時 來自於 "9 cell 大電池 和 另一個 9 cell clip on battery"... 看來會有點像 T410 的底座電池
雖然他強調是 "slice (一片)" 電池
T420s 使用 6 cell , 可另外裝載一個 6 cell ( 裝在哪??) 使總使用時間有 10 小時 ( 也就是 12 cell 有 10 小時)
看來如果單單使用一個 6 cell 使用時間沒有比 T410s 長
The new ThinkPad T420s, ThinkPad T420 and T520 will also share the Series 3 Docking Station with the new ThinkPad W520, the L Series and the upcoming new ThinkPad X220. Another feature that will please corporate IT Managers is the fact that all 14” and 15” ThinkPad’s will now share the same batteries, another big cost saver in the IT Stock room!
這裡開頭第一句話是說明 一狗票型號將可以共用 Series 3 Docking Station.....
然後 14 吋和 15 吋的 Thinkpad 將可以共用電池
下面有一段講商用領域的, 像是Security, Instant Resume 的就先跳過了....
再下面是一段歌功頌德 ( XXXX is amazing ) 跳過.....
最後一段
So the waiting is over! The ThinkPad T420s and T420 together with the ThinkPad T520 will be on sale from we believe the 1st March. The pricing in the USA will start at $1399 for the ThinkPad T420s, and $1029 and $999 for the new ThinkPad T420 and ThinkPad T520. There has never been a better time to buy a new ThinkPad!
