Office-Notebook made in China
Quelle: Notebookjournal

Fazit: Lenovo bietet für rund 1.000 Euro ein gut ausgestattetes Office-Notebook mit soliden Leistungswerten und bewährter Centrino-Technologie der zweiten Generation an. Dank der langen Akkulaufzeit von über viereinhalb Stunden macht es vor allem fernab der Steckdose eine gute Figur und lässt den Anwender auch ohne permanente Stromzufuhr nicht im Regen stehen. Positiv zu vermerken ist auch das umfangreiche Schnittstellenangebot zur kabelgebundenen und kabellosen Kommunikation, das kaum Wünsche offen lässt.

Fazit: Lenovo has been sitting patiently, waiting to take the stage with its own brand of notebooks, but this is not the grand entrance I was anticipating. While the Lenovo 3000 C100 ($999) is a capable value notebook for small businesses and home offices, it doesn't distinguish itself from popular value offerings from Acer, Dell, or HP. If anything, it's less attractive. The laptop is thick and weighs 6.3 pounds. A plastic, silver-coated lid, reminiscent of the titanium cover on the Lenovo ThinkPad Z60m, covers the c100's rough body. It's a look well-suited to its budget price. The 15-inch screen has a maximum resolution of 1,024-by-768, and it's bright enough for all types of work.

Lenovo 3000 C100

Fazit: The C100 is a new model from Lenovo that is targeted at the average consumer or small business buyers, and comes in a lot cheaper than the more expensive Lenovo ThinkPad business models. This laptop has really won me over. I was expecting a low end laptop with more creaks and flex than an empty soda can, but was surprised with an incredibly durable laptop. Lenovo really pulled through on the design of this laptop. I wouldn't bat an eye handing this over to my most obnoxious relative to borrow, knowing full well they'd abuse the thing. When compared to the budget B130 and B120 offerings from Dell and their questionable build, you really can't beat this line of laptops.

Fazit: Lenovo, the company that bought IBM's ThinkPad business last year, has developed an alternative brand of desktop PCs and laptops designed to "address the needs of small-business customers" at a cheaper starting price point than most ThinkPad models. The first two laptop offerings under the Lenovo 3000 umbrella include the superbudget C100 (starting at $599) and the slightly higher-end N100 (starting at $999). Our $749 C100 test unit delivered an average combination of components but solid performance for the price. The battery life was excellent, though the C100 isn't the most portable laptop around. That said, if we had $800 to spend on a laptop, we'd opt for a comparably configured HP Pavilion dv4000, which offers superior multimedia capabilities and a 15.4-inch wide-screen display;

Fazit: When it acquired IBM last year, Lenovo assured everyone that it would continue to make IBM's distinctive ThinkPad series laptops but would also introduce new products. The first part of that pledge has been fulfilled with the company's new ThinkPad X60s. Now Lenovo has made good on the second part of that promise, releasing new notebook and desktop PC models under its own brand.

Fazit: Until recently, Lenovo was a little known brand. Upon the acquisition of IBM’s PC Division, the name has certainly echoed around the office. Not too long ago Riyad looked at the first Lenovo branded ThinkPad and was a little disappointed that it had moved away from the traditional IBM approach. This is the first time we’ve taken a look at a non-ThinkPad Lenovo brand notebook, so it’ll be interesting to see what the company can come up without relying on the IBM branding. With the lid closed, the C100 looks like a fairly normal laptop with a silver lid and rounded edges. It’s a little on the large side and is no thin and light waif at 2.8kg. Open things up and you really get a feel for how dated this notebook appears. If it wasn’t for the rounded corners, I’d have trouble telling the difference between this and a six year old machine.

60% The first Lenovo-branded notebook looks bland but offers plenty of bang for the buck.
Quelle: Laptop Mag

Fazit: The Lenovo 3000 C100, the company's first notebook to bear the Lenovo name since taking over IBM's ThinkPad business, eschews the traditional ThinkPad design for a more generic look. What this laptop lacks in aesthetics it makes up for in terms of features, performance, and battery life. Convenient one-touch access to a host of useful utilities solidifies this system as a good investment for small/home office users. This 1.3-inch-thick mainstream notebook is housed in a nondescript black plastic chassis with a silver lid and weighs 6.2 pounds. Fans of ThinkPad notebooks will be happy with Lenovo's decision to carry over the legendary ThinkPad keyboard but may be disappointed by the lack of a trackpoint mouse pointer. Instead, the system utilizes a responsive two-button Touchpad controller with four-way scrolling.

Lenovo 3000 C100 - UK EXCLUSIVE!
Quelle: Bios Magazine

Fazit: On February 23, 2006, Lenovo unveiled its first-ever Lenovo-branded PCs to be offered worldwide. Finally dismissing the ThinkPad moniker business users cherished for years, the Lenovo 3000 product family is the culmination of work from researchers, scientists and product design teams from China, Japan and the US combined. So we’re sorry to say that we’re disappointed. Nevertheless, for a starting price of just £599, it might just be the perfect system for your number-crunching workforce. But with the advent of the Intel Core Duo processors and more powerful offerings from Dell and HP, you may want to keep your options open. And if you do need more multimedia jazz, maybe you should look at the company’s N Series.

Lenovo C100 as a Budget Vacation Laptop Review
Quelle: Notebookreview

Fazit: For the price this laptop gives you everything you need for a mobile computing platform. A capable processor, extremely good battery life, a very bright screen viewable in direct sunlight, and a sturdy keyboard that is quite pleasant to type on all day if needed. It doesn't seem to mind high heat and high humidity, just be aware the CPU fan will be pumping air from power on till power off in hot weather. In normal conditions with AC in your house (~73F), the fan rarely comes on, so it's not a common occurrence.
