Reviews for the Lenovo Thinkpad Z60t
Source: PC World
Archive.org versionThe Lenovo Z60t presents an odd compromise for notebook buyers looking at wide-screen models. This 14-inch wide-screen unit has a smaller display, lower resolution, and weaker graphics compared with its larger, heavier sibling, the 15.4-inch Z60m--yet at $1999, it's safe to say that the 14-inch model costs a few hundred dollars more than a comparable 15.4-inch model. True, many notebooks cost more the smaller they get, but not when the difference is this minimal. Though you can get the Z60t in ThinkPad-traditional basic black, some models come with a titanium-toned lid. (You have to pick a configuration that sports this type of lid, however.

Archive.org versionSuperb build quality is backed up by award-winning support, while ThinkVantage technology also boosts its appeal. However, you're paying over the odds in terms of spec-per-buck. The ThinkPad phenomenon just keeps on going. Under the IBM flag, it won Big Blue seven out of eight notebook Reliability & Service awards, and this year under Lenovo's ownership it takes the honours once again. Crucial to this award is build quality and keeping customers happy, and both of these principles shine through once again in the Z60t. If anything, new ThinkPad owners should be even happier, as a huge amount of thought has gone into making the Z60t-owning experience a pleasurable one. While most notebooks just include a standard installation of Windows and a generic manual in the box, here you get a manual specific to your model and bespoke software.

Archive.org versionLenovo says the T at the end of the ThinkPad Z60T's name stands for "travel-friendly" (there's a somewhat larger and heavier Z60M model as well). While there are plenty of notebooks that are smaller and lighter than even the Z60T, the Lenovo is quite compact for the features it provides -- 9 by 13.1 by 1.2 inches, just a tick under 5 pounds. We tested a $2,299 configuration with a Pentium M 760 (2.0GHz) processor, 1GB of RAM, and a 100GB hard disk plus DVD burner. (Prices start at $1,099 for a stripper with Celeron M 360 CPU, 256MB of memory, a 40GB hard disk, and a DVD-ROM/CD-RW combo drive.) Our test unit also came with a 7-cell lithium-ion battery that Lenovo rates for up to four hours of unplugged productivity; we got slightly more than three hours out of it.

Comment
Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 900: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900 is an integrated (onboard) graphic chip with shared memory on Mobile Intel 915GM chipset. It is the predecessor of Graphics Media Accelerator 950. The performance can be compared with the Mobile Radeon 9000 (with a 64 bit memory bus).
These graphics cards are not suited for Windows 3D games. Office and Internet surfing however is possible.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Pentium M: With Intel chip set (855 or 915) and Intel WLAN also available with the name Centrino (name for the package).
In the comparison very fast per megahertz and very modest with weaknesses in floating point operations.
It is also available as a low voltage version with very small current consumption.

14 inch display size represents a middle ground between the small subnotebook formats and the screens of the standard 15 inch laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, provides good resolutions with usable detail sizes, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact.
In the past, 14-inch devices were very rare, but now they are the standard for laptops after the 15-inchers.
» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.
In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.
In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.
79.6%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
