I got X250 with i5 processor. The fan noise is terrible, it is too loud already at 20% cpu. Bought also a similar HP laptop and it isn't that loud even with 100% load. Why nobody mentions this in the review?

That wouldn't be possible without sacrificing ports like VGA or RJ45 due to the low thickness of the device.

Keyboard is just awful. They make it smaller to put bigger touch pad (which I don't use at all), but why not to leave it as wide as it was in x230 and have insert button in it's place??
Also there are no normal leds at all. No wifi, hdd, sleep, battery, caps lock. Huge disappointment!
Also there is no spill-through channels to allow water to go through laptop anymore. I wouldn't date to drop any water on this Thinkpad.
And I dislike new screen attachment. It disallows to have old-style back-extended battery which keeps thickness low.

So looks like x220 was the last real Thinkpad, reliable and comfortable.

They finally reintroduced the trackpoint buttons, yay, something usable again! (never neglect man-machine interface elements).
How many obvious mistakes does Lenovo have to make on its ThinkPad brand to finally come back to the proven and advantageous solutions present on previous models?

Anyway, this is a notebook I can buy to eventually replace my current X201. A friend got a X250 last week, the keyboard has a very comfortable and silent feedback, and the trackpoint is good.

I'm not getting a full-featured 7-row keyboard though, so no such combination as Alt+0151 or Alt+157 are possible and the Menu key is still missing (at least Shift+F10 exists in Windows as an alternative)...
But again Lenovo, what was the problem with the layout of the 7-row keyboard? You had a great layout inherited from IBM nobody complained about, now you have a great tactile feedback, you could have had both! Or even have a full-featured keyboard as an option for professional users and make money on it. I would happily give $50 more for a full keyboard and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone.

Does the full hd IPS display suffers from the 'image ghosting' as it was the case for X240?
That was actually reason I had dumped it (unacceptable flaw for that price tier)

Great news: the ThinkPad X250 supports 16GB DDR3L SO-DIMM modules:

No (big) experiments. Lenovo only introduces small changes for the latest sibling of the X200-series – but just those changes improve a good subnotebook and result in an even better one. The manufacturer even listened to the criticism about the unpopular 5-button Clickpad of the predecessor.
