The earliest history of ThinkPad should be traced back more than ten years ago to be the global computer giant IBM, ThinkPad Chinese name is "thinking this", before 2005 is the IBM PC Division's brand of portable computers, to today has 26 years of history If one of the most changed behaviors in this world is "thinking," ThinkPads are undoubtedly the most handy PC tools for "thinkers" of all walks of life in the past 26 years.
"Thinking" is the ability to create energy. In 26 years, countless programmers, designers, researchers, planners ... have converted these energy into a chart, a construction plan, a research report, and a planning plan before "thinking this". This energy has changed the world in the past 26 years and today. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
In the recent years of tablet computer outbreaks, iPads and manufacturers with a large number of Android tablet computers have become a lot of people's entertainment digital products. Can a tablet computer only be a "toy"? So there is a "productivity tool" type of tablet, which refers to a tablet equipped with a Windows operating system. However, when it comes to "PC productivity," the Thinkpad notebook is obviously the most historical tradition to play this role. The ThinkPad X1 tablet that came out of the box today is truly a "productivity tool."
Appearance out of the box
ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook box, the front one is a tablet, the latter one is installed.
This tablet computer has a projector component that can be purchased. In addition, the user can actually purchase the ThinkPad Stack to expand the storage, life, and other functions of the machine.
The inner upper layer of the package is a flat plate, and the lower layer is an attachment, including a power adapter and a touch pen.
The power adapter is 45W, the stylus has a rubber pen holder, and the stylus can be inserted into the USB interface for storage.
Many people may not agree with the former landlord that "The Thinkpad Tablet is a real productivity tool." Isn't the Windows Tablet a productivity tool? The reason why the landlord said this is that the ThinkPad X1 tablet has a 2048 pressure rating.
There are many Windows tablets on the market, but most of them are 1024-level pressure-sensitive. The stylus's stroke accuracy can't meet the needs of high-precision writing and drawing. The 2048-level pressure sensation is simply for many engineers, designers, and illustrators. Very good, 2048 pressure can really meet the application needs of improvisation, emergency editing. It is important for people who have drawing needs to translate inspiration into drafts in a timely manner.
ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook computer, the side with a longer frame is directly below the notebook, and the one with the WIN (HOME) button can be viewed directly under the tablet as a handheld device.
Some students may feel that the flat border is very wide when they are accustomed to using a narrow border, but most tablets must be designed with a thumb-width border. If the tablet is an ultra-narrow border, the edge of the finger will be held when the tablet is held. Will come into contact with the screen and cause misoperation.
Near the Windows button is the Mini DisplayPort connector, built-in speaker, and USB 3.0 interface Type-C connector.
The back of the material is aviation-grade carbon fiber material, the standard Thinkpad Founder looks, there is an Intel Core M5 label, bracket, and camera.
This camera still has to say in particular, many tablet PC rear camera is only 5 million pixels or even lower, basically considered a display, and the Tablet PC camera ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC configuration flash is still relatively small, the pixel also has 800 Megapixel, really let the flat-panel notebook rear camera has "the significance and value of use."
The other side of the interface for the audio interface, volume control buttons, speakers, security lock.
Open the back of the bracket, you can put the ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook upright, the thickness of only 8.75mm, is still relatively thin.
If you use it alone as a tablet, you may feel that the 12-inch tablet is a bit big, but it shouldn't be a problem for users who are accustomed to the iPad, and the tablet weighs only 767g.
Components extensions
The little red dot of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC is not standard in the flat box. It needs to be purchased separately. This means that this is actually an optional accessory.
The plates and the space between them are connected with magnetic contacts. More contacts can be seen on the plate. This is reserved for the projection assembly. A ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook can be equipped with a projection unit, F7 and key combinations. Using the implementation function is a quick projection.
To say the use of this keyboard feels, although the texture and touch touch and Thinkpad series notebook is the same, but this tablet keyboard base keystroke process to some, so feel free to use the Thinkpad notebook as fun, typing is not A sense of rhythm, but workmanship and feel can be regarded as the best in its class. Especially with red dots and buttons, it is better to use than the Surface base.
Surprisingly, this actually can be backlit, two brightness adjustable, which do not know how much higher than the number of tablets gone! 99% of tablet PCs on the market are not backlit. Having a backlight makes the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook look more like a traditional notebook.
After using the pedestal, it looks like a notebook, but also pay attention to the flat board connection. This part of the Lenovo design is very clever, you can adjust the height, there are two files of variable height.
Compared to the 15-inch MacBook Pro, when using a 12-inch ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook as a notebook, the advantages of volume, thick-bottom, and weight are obvious, and a small briefcase can be put together afterwards. No need to bring special Notebook bag.
ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook can also be equipped with optional projection components, after the increase of the tablet has a projection function, if it is not required for business reporting, can be used to put PPT, entertainment applications are also very easy to use, and use This component will have an additional HDMI and DP interface.
Another can use Wow expansion component is Lenovo launched the ThinkPad Stack, ThinkPad Stack is composed of four modules "building block extension accessories" Bluetooth speaker module known to use the Bluetooth 4.0 standard, mobile power module capacity of 10000 mA, The wireless module has built-in 802.11ac dual-band WiFi and a 100-megabit cable interface. The capacity of the mobile hard disk is 1TB, and the entire system is even more powerful after expansion.
Stylus handwriting
For tablet computers, handwriting features are basically available, but most of the tablets on the market are 1024-level pressure-sensitive. The experience of drawing and writing is not good, but the ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook is a 2048-class pressure sensor. For many users, handwriting does not seem important, but for the professional users of designers, drafters, illustrators, etc., this feature is of great significance, so the landlord will make the handwriting function experience of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook a separate chapter.
However, at the beginning, we will have to place a storage unit for the stylus of the ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook. This storage unit can insert the stylus into the USB interface of the tablet. It seems to be convenient, but it is not safe, and it is easy to drop. Second, if you insert the pen into the bag while inserting it, it is likely that the USB interface is damaged due to a large external force.
The second thing to be ridiculed is that this stylus cannot replace the pen tip. This may make some designers who are accustomed to using digital drawing boards not very happy. Fortunately, it is the WACOM touch sensor driver that is used to compare drawing requirements. High users can easily find a third-party stylus to replace. If it is non-professional, this stylus is basically enough.
Try to hand-paint in PhotoShop, experience is good, but compared with the drawing board feel very different, because the flat is a mirror, so when the hand-painted feel a bit slippery, if it is matte flat It will be better; second is that the touch response is still somewhat different from the tablet.
The natural sense of hand-painting is that the machine text cannot be replaced, and the illustrator can use this tablet to draw POP posters.
In general, the 2048 pressure sensitivity of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook is certainly much better than many 1024-level pressure-sensitive tablets, and it can basically meet the needs of sketches, graffiti, record inspiration, and design drafts with general accuracy requirements.
With Sketchup Book, the same hand-painted feel good, designers sketch, linear draft is no problem.
Still not quite accustomed to handwriting and painting on the mirror plate, I feel a bit stiff, but the results are good. Although not as accurate as a digital drawing board, this is the best handwriting drawing feature that landlords currently have on tablets.
The handwriting function of some 3D modeling software ThinkPad X1 tablet notebooks can still meet the drawing requirements. The figure above is a design drawing of a chassis drawn before the modification in Sketch UP.
The accuracy has been very satisfactory. The performance of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC is still good. If the image size is not very large or the pixels are not high, the CPU of the machine can be rendered with light weight.
Similarly, there are 3D modeling software, and various CAD drawing software can run. It means that for architects, interior designers, industrial designers, this tablet is very suitable, you can take this tablet In the hand, the design plan is shown to the boss or the customer. The other person has opinions and can change it with the stylus. This will make the design communication much easier.
The handwriting function is not exclusive to the design and mapping industry. For the average user or business person, the handwriting function can also be applied to daily work. For example, Office series software, you can use OneNote to hand-write shorthand meeting minutes at a meeting. In Word, PowerPoint, and Excel software, handwritten documents are marked, hand-drawn charts are added, and the student party is also the same. Select a point-for-point electronic note-taking software and use this tablet to write notes during class.
Display display
The test link starts with the 12-inch 2160x1440 resolution screen of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC, because no matter if it is a professional user or an ordinary user with graphics and image processing needs, a good screen will certainly bring a better experience for use. This IPS screen pixel density reached 216PPI, the screen performance has been very delicate, the viewing angle is also very large, but the mirror screen is easy to reflect, which is also a common problem.
The color transition is still very good, the picture saturation is very high, this is a screen that pleases the eye very much.
Spyder4 colorimeter simple test of the color gamut, sRGB color gamut of 95%, NTSC and AdobeRGB color gamut of about 70%, and desktop PC wide color gamut screen there is a certain gap between the tablet can be considered very good The screen, in addition, the factory color temperature is slightly cooler, so it looks like the screen is very transparent and clean.
Although the pixel density of 216PPI did not reach the retinal screen (about 326ppi), but in the normal sitting position, as long as the distance from the screen 20 centimeters away, people with no better vision will basically not distinguish the screen grainy.
Take the above example as an example. After the bird in the screen is magnified several times, the graininess of the screen is still invisible. Photographers and designers should like this screen.
The above picture shows the effect of playing 4K video. The picture is very realistic, and the highlight part does not overflow. The light and dark transition is still very good. 4K video decoding playback is no pressure for this machine.
Some users may worry that, with a 2K resolution screen, it seems that the pitch of the text will not be very small and it will hurt the eyes.
In the Windows 10 system, text and taskbar support automatic zooming, the system default zoom level is 150%, text size is very appropriate. Win family software is now getting better and better on high resolution screens.
Taking the Windows Edge browser webpage display effect as an example, the Windows system is still very good at compatibility with high resolution screens. The webpage has been scaled and the text size is appropriate. However, some third-party browsers may not support zooming. It seems that the text will be a bit small. There will be no problem with Maxthon and other browsers that support webpage zoom locking.
In the tablet mode, there is a lot more to display and display the visual content of the webpage. This is where the tablet is easy to use. Reading books and reading comics will have a look at the feeling of traditional paper books.
The display of the Windows menu tile in the tablet mode is also suitable for the font size.
However, with the 2K resolution screen, some third-party software still has compatibility issues, mainly because it has not been updated, such as Photoshop. On the 12-inch 2K screen, the taskbar and the border are very small. In the new version of Photoshop15, 17 and so on, there is a test function that can scale the interface UI to 200%, but zooming to 200% is too big for a 2K screen, and it seems very strange, I hope adobo and third-party software companies Ability to resolve compatibility display issues with compatible high score screens in the new version.
Benchmark test
For Tablet PCs, running copies should not be the content that we are most concerned about.
However, ThinkPad X1 Tablet PCs are the first to use the Intel Core M5 6Y57, and the system performance is still very interesting. Due to the relatively new model, CAM software does not recognize vendor information and graphics card information.
After the X masters who are more familiar with each other, the basic information was identified, but the sub-tests in the back caused a little joke.
Here to talk about Intel Core M5 6Y57 this processor supports Turbo frequency, the main frequency is 1.1GHz under low load state, the highest frequency under high load state is 2.8GHz, it is actually a very fast CPU.
In the next performance test, the master made a joke, the disk performance only beat the country's 1% of users, it should be wrong, many domestic users are using HDD hard drive, and the ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC is used The 256GB Samsung SSD solid state drive should be very fast.
Then made an SSD hard disk performance test, measured in the ATTO Disk Benchmark, read more than 500MB / s, write speed stable at 300MB / s; another software AS SSD measured data to be a little lower, but this SSD performance can beat at least 80% of users nationwide.
In the CAM software, the CPU temperature is 48 degrees Celsius when the system load is 32%.
There is a temperature stress test item in Master Lu's software. The maximum temperature of the test results is about 70 degrees Celsius. The carbon fiber shell of ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC has good thermal conductivity, which can help heat dissipation, but when used under high load conditions, it is indeed able to feel high. The back cover will be hotter. If it is used in summer, it is more obvious. Using the tablet at the same time will feel that both the power adapter and the tablet back cover are hot.
The Intel Core M5 6Y57 processor belongs to the Skylake architecture Core M processor, and the power consumption of the scenario design is as low as 3 watts, and even at the highest frequency, it will not exceed 7 watts, and the heat is strictly controlled. Compared to the previous generation Atom Z series, both power consumption and performance are major advances.
In addition core graphics Intel HD Graphics 515 performance is good, scored in the CINEBENCH OpenGl test project is very close to the desktop version of the AMD Radeon 4870 graphics card.
What the performance of this processor represents, on behalf of you can play a lot of large-scale 3D games, in the Windows App Store there are many game masterpieces that are shared with the XBOX platform. For example, "Chaos and Order 2" in the above figure can run very smoothly on this tablet.
Although the ThinkPad X1 Tablet PC is a tablet computer with sufficient business sense, business people may also want to play the game. In the test, they simply verified that the current popular online game League of Legends (LOL) is at 2K resolution. ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook can run games smoothly in medium and high quality. The only thing to say is to play games that are really bad. In fact, you can add an external machine to use.
The end of this long article is finally to be written, it is actually written for a long time, because the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook really has many advantages that are worth mentioning. This article has not finished yet. Of course, it is not a perfect machine, such as feel And stylus touch, as well as a slightly shabby 2-cell lithium battery to cope with the usual power consumption of the "Wintel" platform.
5 years ago, there was a kind of laptop called "netbook" that had been popular for some time. After that, in 2010, Apple introduced the ipad tablet. The world was changed. The netbook retired from it. IOS and Android developed rapidly. Microsoft and Intel launched the X86 platform tablet. Although starting late, it should be said that it is the most hopeful to write "mobile office" as a reality. After all, most people use PCs on the Windows platform and have inherent advantages in compatibility.
The appearance of Windows Tablets has made many people who rely on the Win platform work to see the hope of “easy work and easy business tripâ€, but to be honest, in the past two or three years, the performance, endurance, and overall performance of the Windows Tablet have not been too satisfactory. .
Atom Z series tablet appears better, but take a look at the market for many Atom Z-series processor's Window tablet, most are 2 ~ 4GB of memory, many are 64GB of storage space or even 32GB, after installing a system and office software Space is stretched, not to mention the multitasking performance of the processor and the performance of the graphics card.
Intel Core M5 6Y57 + 8GB + RAM + 256GB SSD + 2K screen + 2048 pressure, if not too high work, this "entry-level" ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook can basically cope with, the price of 7,000 yuan About a lot cheaper than the same level of Surface4 Pro, it is still more cost-effective.
If you feel that this performance is not enough, you can upgrade to Core i7-6Y75 processor 16GB RAM 512GB SSD, so that system performance can be compared with some of the traditional laptop hard cylinder, 12 inches, 767g, 8.75mm thin and slim, but enough to bear you The burden of work and application requirements.
For the selected Surface4 Pro or ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook, Thinkpad is a 26-year brand, if it is a more serious workplace, of course, is a little black and white corners is more suitable, Surface4 Pro silver body should be more stylish, the screen Higher resolution.
Although this article has always been Tucao ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook's red dot feel, but in fact the same type of product in the red dot is outstanding, and even if the Surface4 Pro base, there is no backlight like a red dot The design of other brands of tablet computers is not even a little red dot, touchpad buttons.
Not only is the office very practical, the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook can basically meet the user's daily web browsing, audiovisual entertainment, gaming applications that require general performance.
You can make it a literary transformation, into your painting board, notebook, chase drama, music, ....
For the previous Thinkpad, business, sturdiness, and stability were the keywords. Today, however, the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook is slim, lightweight, sophisticated, and has begun to have a literary and fashion sense.
From the perspective of personal experience, the 12-inch ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook is a bit large from the flat point of view, but it also meets the needs of some industry users such as designers always like the screen when the big picture Little bit.
The 9.7-inch Apple board always feels a bit small. If it is an illustrator, it may also feel that the 12-inch flat-panel screen reads comics to give some comfort. 12 inches is a very clever size, it should be a meeting size of the notebook, tablet two products, if less than 12 inches, does not look like a laptop, from this perspective, although the ThinkPad X1 tablet notebook said Is a two-in-one product, in fact, it is more biased towards an ultra-lightweight.
Finally, we share a new discovery that the red dot on the back of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet Notebook can shine.
Looking at this little red light, I suddenly remembered that this is the "light of thinking." Everyone in the world has a lot of people from all walks of life. He thinks hard in thinking before Thinkpad, uses thinking to create energy, changes their world, even changes. worldwide. It is hoped that the products of the Thinkapad series will continue to maintain their status and shine in a variety of stereotyped machines.
Lan cable include CAT7 Lan Cable, cat6a cable, cat6 cable, cat5e cable.
The length of the lan cable are 1000ft (305m), the usable part of a box cable is about 300 meters. To press the RJ45 connectors, usually needs to consider the consumption of part of zhuan degree, so one box of lan cable is 305 meters.
Home Network Cable is called "twisted pair". About twisted pair:
Twisted Pair (TP), the most commonly used transmission medium in comprehensive wiring projects, consists of two insulated copper wires. By stranding two insulated copper wires together at a certain density, the radio waves emitted by each wire during transmission are offset by those from the other wire, effectively reducing the degree of signal interference.
Twisted-pair wires are usually made of two 22-26 insulated copper wires wrapped around each other, hence the name "twisted-pair wire".In practice, twisted pair consists of several pairs of twisted pair wrapped together in an insulated cable sleeve.If one or more pairs of twisted-wire is placed in an insulating bushing, it becomes a twisted-wire cable. However, in daily life, "twisted-wire" is generally referred to as "twisted-wire".
