The ultralight Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano Gen 3 provides a rugged and feature-rich solution for business travelers, trading some ports and battery life for extreme portability. Light as a feather, with power for on-the-go pros

The ThinkPad X1 Nano is back for a third year in a row with the exact same chassis design as its first generation launch. It remains one of the lightest and most portable subnotebooks in the market, but the compromises to performance are still alive and well.

If only it had HDMI and USB-A ports, Lenovo's second-generation ThinkPad X1 Nano would get a rave review. Even without them, it's a tempting travel companion. One of the nicest, and very lightest, ultraportables

That said, the Nano’s weight is astounding. I feel like I’m carrying nothing while I’m holding it, even one-handed. I’d easily haul it in my purse or throw it into my backpack and forget that it’s there. For a few comparisons: it’s half a pound lighter than the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano is small and lightweight, making it the perfect travel companion. That said, the battery life leaves little to be desired. Lenovo’s X1 Nano, now in its third generation, aims to cram an enjoyable and performant laptop into the smallest footprint possible. That means it can’t be too small (that would ruin the keyboard), but it still needs to look and feel smaller than its mainstream rivals. The X1 Nano meets this goal, though it requires a few compromises.Looking for more options? Check out PCWorld's roundup of the best ultraportable laptops available today.Lenovo Th
