Some models have the camera, some don't.

Camera kits are available on-line for the X200 Tablet for around US$15 or so.

It will be in the middle of the top of the screen bezel (looking at the screen with the <I>lenovo</I> logo oriented normally); some have a black plastic trapezoidal cover, some have the camera option.

the X200 Tablet is compatible with <CODE>DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500)</CODE> and <CODE>DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600)</CODE>.

My ThinkPad X200 Tablet (type 7449-43U) came with 2x2GB <CODE>DDR3-1066 SO-DIMM (PC3-8500)</CODE> from Elpida as the OEM provided.
|
||||
It's a Core2 Duo SL9600 model and Intel's datasheet doesn't show any maximum memory for the processor.
|
||||
My Thinkpad X200 Tablet (type 7450-EYU) came with the same type of memory, from Samsung.
|
||||
I haven't checked what processor it has.
|
||||
</P>
|
||||
<P>
|
||||
Rumor is the X200 Tablet can take 2x4GB <CODE>DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500)</CODE> or possibly <CODE>DDR3-1333 (PC3-10600)</CODE>.
|
||||
I ordered <A HREF="https://www.newegg.com/corsair-8gb-204-pin-ddr3-so-dimm/p/N82E16820233179">a Corsair 2x4GB <CODE>DDR3-1066 (PC3-8500)</CODE> set</A>.
|
||||
I probably got bad modules as they're a bit finnicky, but I've managed to get 6GB reported in the BIOS so far by mixing them with OEM memory.
|
||||

|
||||
<P>
|
||||
It's possible to have 8GB memory installed.
|
||||
<A HREF="https://www.ebay.com/usr/laptopused">eBay seller laptopused</A> correlates that <CODE>DDR3-1333</CODE> dual-rank memory should work.
|
||||
Apparently for technical reasons the X200 Tablet must take 2Rx8 memory; two ranks of eight chips, and for 8GB memory, 256MB per chip (divide 8192MB by 2 modules * 2 ranks * 8 chips).

OEM-configured laptops can have <CODE>DDR3-1066</CODE> memory from Elpida or Samsung.
|

<A HREF="https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/lenovo-thinkpad-x200-tablet">Laptop Mag says</A> the laptop came with 2GB RAM by default and is upgradeable to 4GB but most laptops for sale secondhand have 4GB memory installed.

I got in touch with eBay seller <A HREF="https://ebay.com/seller?sid=woosterpsu">woosterpsu</A> who was auctioning off an X200 Tablet to benefit the Electronic Frontier Foundation with 8GB RAM installed and reported in the BIOS.
|
||||
The seller sent me an image of the installed memory: a Hynix 4GB 2Rx8 PC3-10600S and a Dell P/N SNPX830DC/4G, both scavenged from other laptops.

These are <I>confirmed working</I> in a Core2 Duo L9400 X200T.
