Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 Review

Rating: 8.0.

If you are in the market for a new laptop, then there are certainly no shortage of options available today. We tend to focus on gaming machines at Kitguru, however today's review product will appeal to a business user who values performance, portability and build quality. The Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 is designed for productivity, equipped with a fast Intel Core i5 processor, Nvidia Optimus graphics and 4GB of DDR3 memory.

Lenovo have a range of laptop computers designed specifically for the business user. The Edge S430 is targeted at the ‘small business' user, weighs less than 1.8KG and has a rated battery life around 6 hours.

For a frequent flyer, this machine looks to be an ideal choice, especially as it uses an almost identical keyboard to the class leading unit incorporated into the ThinkPad X1 back in September last year.

Feature Set:

  • 2GB NVIDIA® discrete graphics with Optimus™ technology
  • Integrated DVD reader/writer or second HDD
  • Trusted Platform Module
  • Progressive, clean design in soft-touch mocha black
  • Lenovo Solutions for Small Business
  • InstantResume
  • Durable dropdown hinges
  • Spill-resistant keyboard
  • HDD Performance Booster
  • Active Protection System™
  • ULE Gold-certified
  • Integrated 720p HD camera with face tracking
  • USB 3.0, mini-DP/Thunderbolt™, mini-HDMI, 4-in-1 card reader

  1. I love their keyboards too, my boss has one in work (not sure of the model number, but the keyboard is fantastic).

    id rather have a less powerful laptop with a great screen and keyboard rather than the latest processor.

  2. I hate the idea of the battery being inside the chassis. never liked that idea.

  3. I like the look of their new carbon X1. I bought the original X1 on your review last time and I think its almost perfect. If they improve the screen on the carbon version im flogging mine off and upgrading to the new one.

  4. WOW, that thing is thicker than the power brick LOL

  5. Lenovo ThinkPad Edge S430 beautiful laptop. They provide such as light in weight, built-in DVD writer, 14-inch wide HD+ screen, SD memory card, another USB port,2GB NVIDIA graphics card, memory capacity of 8 GB RAM and many more.
