is the cpu replaceable on one of these, or its soldered to the mobo? I want some laptop from the X- series wich will be able to handle an i7 (best if x230 as it is the newest i can afford)

Marcin - Contestar

The X230 CPU is soldered to the board. i7 not really worth it because the performance difference is about +5% and battery life is poor compared to the i5 X230.

Great walk-through.

I used this for my x220, which was identical apart from three minor differences.

Many thanks.
