On the good side the X340-021US has 3 USB ports, a removable battery, an easy to read 13.4-inch screen, thin less than 1″ width, and 2.9lb light weight.  On the bad side there a serious negatives: the 1.4Ghz processor is only single core (vs today’s dual core speeds), it’s flimsy keyboard feels mushy and cheap, and the battery life is only 3-4 hours. This PCMAG review calls the X340-021US ”your man’s Macbook Air” because it’s made more cheaply than the Apple original. A quick dig into these Newegg user reviews reveals that this system is average.
