  • The best connectivity and I/O port options in this form factor. Incredibly light, svelte, and durable. Great performance and overthetop battery life
  • Touchpad is a minor disaster. Anemic SSD configuration. Relatively weak screen brightness. No touchscreen option (yet)

  • Slim, light yet strong. Fantastic keyboard, very good display, good port selection
  • No touchscreen option, no USB-C or Thunderbolt 3 port
  • The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon faces some serious competition, even within Lenovo's own overlapping lineup where the ThinkPad X1 Yoga and ThinkPad T460s beckon. The X1 Yoga brings a 360 degree hinge, touchscreen and a Wacom pen for $300 more. The T460s is...

  • no CPU or GPU throttling on battery power, excellent keyboard and touchpad, slim design; strong chassis, respectable battery life, easy serviceability, brighter backlight, WWAN support, quiet fans, no PWM
  • Unable to maintain maximum rated TUrbo Boost speeds, Narrower color gamut than the WQHD SKU, hinges could be more taut, fingerprint magnet, no USB Type-C, slow charging, soldered RAM, pricey
  • With strong alternatives available like the MacBook Air or XPS 13, the pressure has been hard on Lenovo to keep the ThinkPad X1 Carbon series going strong. The latest model feels better than ever as detailed in our previous review of the unit and its WWAN...

  • ultra light and slim case, excellent input devices, fast wireless connections, high-resolution and viewing angle stable display, high system performance, low system noise and temperature, good battery life, 3 years warranty
  • slightly wobbly display hinges, LAN only via adapter, no USB Type C, hardly any upgrade options, very high price
  • Especially its great mobility is a strong argument for the X1 Carbon.With an aggressive weight of not even 1.2 kg, you can take the ThinkPad on every business trip and it easily lasts a whole day without power adapter. Despite slim design, the user hardly...
