"you know, when you buy a porche"... what a relatable analogy

[omarcortes]

As a thinkpad user I highly recommend them. Obviously knowing its pros and cons. Love mine.

The last iteration, gen 10, had heat issues because the slim laptop was not built for the energy output of the Intel P series CPU. Gen 11 version of the X1 Carbon with Intel 13th gen U series CPU has far better heat management. It is a great laptop for the traveling business professionals. Good battery life with excellent single core performance without heat.

Good review! I may have missed this, if you are using it with a lot of apps open and a lot of tabs in chrome or any browser with chats and conferences, would the battery last 8 hours?

My first exposure to the ThinkPad was back in the early 2000s when it was part of the IBM line; it was my work laptop. It had the typing experience that other laptop makers aspired to, and the nub and trackpad are iconic. Great machines. Thanks for the review.

Yup absolutely love mine. Been thinkpad since T410

Have a 4th gen x1 carbon, 10 years and still working great

Hi, is it good for architecture software uses ? Like Revit and Twinmotion

[henriquemiguel]

I have the thinkpad t14 with I7 11gen, 48gb of ram and it's amazing for what I do: basic photo and video edit, productivity, etc. Battery life is amazing, for travel is super light.

How long does battery last as in after full charge and time to replace with new battery ??

If someone types a lot, even being a writer fulltime, I would say, Lenovo Thinkpad is your friend. Their keyboards are a dream. Pure joy.

I've got a Gen 10 for work, and I do love it. It's a beast and can handle anything I throw at it. It's controversial for ThinkPad fans, I know, but I absolutely hate the eraser. It gets in the way. If you're an advanced user, you don’t use a mouse. I do wish they would bring the soundbar over from the Yoga series.

Great content as always! Thank you Matthew :)

I have the lenovo x1 extreme gen 4 with rtx 3060 and 4k screen, i love this laptop and his family. I dint have any issues with the performance so far. Great videos like always.

When you say it is made of carbon fibre is that just the top of the screen or does the wrist rest have a slight softer rubbery feel like the old dell xps series?

how many frames do you get on Overwatch? It's the only game I play on PC and I'm getting a thin and light laptop like the HP Spectre hoping I can game on OW at 60 fps for hours on weekends and take it to work in the weekdays!

I was thinking to buy the X1 carbon, and you uploaded the video. Thanks a lot.

[ThePaulKM]

How do you think this laptop compares to the Vaio SX14?

[amrsalem]

Which sounds better this one or MacBook air 15?

[TheCezu]

Nodding my head in full agreement behind the screen of a X1 Carbon, FIRST generation :P in use since 2016. Never failed me.
