MSI has announced a revamped version of its X-Slim X340 thin and light notebook and it has dubbed it X350.

As the name implies, the X350 is just a development of the X340, not an entirely new model. It will ship with new dual-core CPU's, probably the SU4100 and SU7300, and 320GB or 500GB of storage.



The rest of the spec remains unchanged: 13.4-inch LED panel with a resolution of 1366x768, 2GB of memory, Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics, 1.3MP webcam, wireless LAN and 4-cell or 8-cell batteries.

MSI decided to change some of the materials used on the chassis and lid, and we like the new textured lid better than the old piano black one. However, we're not sold on the metal trim used on the edge of the chassis.
