Windows 8 gestures, such as swiping in to bring up the Charms menu and switching between apps, were equally responsive. Multitouch gestures such as pinch-to-zoom and rotate were spot on, and click feedback was satisfyingly responsive. Measuring 3.9 x 2.7 inches, the touchpad is about 20 percent larger than previous versions, which made it all the more easier to use. However, to maximize space, the three buttons that normally lie between the spacebar and touchpad have now been integrated into the top of the touchpad itself. While listening to Kanye West's "On Sight," the rapper's sonorous voice came through with punch, but beats were difficult to make out.Ĭlick to EnlargeLike the rest of its ThinkPad line, the Helix' keyboard has the familiar red TrackPoint between the G, H and B keys that continues to be the best in the industry. Audio quality on the high end of the spectrum was crisp and clear, though bass hits were nearly imperceptible. Two stereo speakers on the Helix' bottom edge provided enough audio power to fill a small room.

The HP Elitebook Revolve's 1366 x 768 display measured 376 lux, while the Samsung ATIV Smart PC Pro 700T (which has a 1080p screen) registered 329 lux. That's much better than the ultraportable notebook category average of 231 lux, as well as the tablet average of 358 lux. The display's viewing angles were excellent, allowing us to see images on the screen while sitting to the far left or far right of the system.Īt 374 lux, the Helix' IPS display is also extremely bright, making it easy to view even in sunlight. Colors were equally impressive, with the browns and greys of post-apocalyptic Earth clashing nicely with the greens and blues of Elysium. An aerial shot of the colony awash with trees provided a spectacular amount of detail. While watching a 1080p trailer for the sci-fi flick "Elysium," the space colony that serves as the titular setting for the film looked beautiful. Combined, the ThinkPad Helix weighs 3.8 pounds and measures 11.7 x 8.9 x 0.8 inches, which is heavier and larger than the HP Elitebook Revolve 810 (3 pounds, 11.2 x 8.4 x 0.8 inches), as well as the Samsung 700T, which weighs 3.6 pounds with its keyboard dock.Ĭlick to EnlargeAt 11.6 inches, the Helix' 1920 x 1080 IPS VibrantView Gorilla Glass display offered stunning visuals. Like the Samsung 700T, the Helix's base has a built-in battery that adds to its overall weight. This way, you can use the Helix in what Lenovo calls "Stand" mode (good for presentations), or just fold it flush with the keyboard for "Tablet+" mode. However, the Helix's dock is made in such a way that users can connect the tablet so that the screen is facing the keyboard, or the other way around. Our biggest complaint about the ThinkPad Helix' design is that the display can't be angled back very far in clamshell mode.
By comparison, the Samsung 700T has a much simpler connector. This reveals a rather complex-looking setup: A plastic flap protects the docking mechanism, which includes two large metal tabs, two docking connectors, and a small fan array which pulls air through the tablet. When pushed, a small red tab at the bottom left corner of the base lets you remove the tablet from the keyboard dock.
Click to EnlargeIt seems that with every detachable tablet comes a new way of connecting it to its base, and the Helix is no different.
