14 DAY TRIAL // AMD's Fusion series of processors have managed to make their way into an important number of compact mobile and AIO systems, and Lenovo will soon expand its Fusion notebook portfolio with the introduction of the ThinkPad E125.
The system was on display in AMD's booth at Computex and, judging by its aspect, this seems to be in the late design stages, if not even ready for mass production.
Taking a closer look at the ThinkPad E125, one can see that the notebook uses Lenovo’s new Chiclet keyboard, with a half-height top row of keys, as well as the usual TrackPad, which is paired together with a rather small touchpad.
This reminds us a bit of the ThinkPad Edge E220s, which also has a similar sized screen (12.5-inch in the E220s vs 11.6-inch in the E125), but is powered by Intel's Sandy Bridge processors.
Speaking of the display, as it's the case with all modern notebooks, this comes with LED back-lighting and sports a glossy finishing, which could prove to be a bit of a challenge when used in direct sunlight.
Connectivity could also prove to be an issue, as the rather limited space available forced Lenovo to include only three USB 2.0 ports (one can charge your devices even if the notebook is switched off), an Ethernet port, a single headset jack and a memory card slot.
In addition, the notebook also sports a webcam, as well as the mandatory Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections.
Right now, we don't know what type of APU is fitted inside the notebook, since Lenovo could have opted for the AMD E-350 or the soon-to-be-released E-450 accelerated processing unit.
No matter the APU that Lenovo chose for the E125, the 4-cell battery installed should be able to work between 5 and 6 hours without a recharge.
No details regarding availability or pricing were disclosed by Lenovo at this time. (via Pocket-Lint)
