I think the gen 8 has 4K 60hz hdmi. Gen 7 only does 30hz 4K hdmi

I received my Gen 8 - 2 months ago. Mine comes with the UHD(3840x2160) IPS Glare 500nits display and it is simply astounding display. You watch a Youtube video and it's like you are there with them. The Dolby Atmos sound also is great.
Coming from my previous bulky T520. It is so thin and light. I'm so happy with my choice.

i am waiting on a gen 7 with 16gb ram and 2k panel, after this review hope the display is bright enough and colors rich enough on it... 4k was not available

Thanks, what about fps between an I7-7th gen and an I7-8th gen?
The GPU is a bit more powerful on a GEN8, but is there a big difference in 3D games?
Thanks.

Intel announced the new 11th Gen Intel Core processors.
Can you install those on my new Thinkpad X1 Gen 8 laptop?

[hamudq]

Can you test the speakers ? Is there any difference between 7th and 8th gen ?

Get the UHD(3840x2160) display. Don't worry about 'glare' after 1 day you will hardly notice it.

Is 8GB RAM enough for average use? I can’t afford 16 and I’m worried because I can’t upgrade it.

[amaanali]

Would you recommend this or the x1 nano gen 1?

[kimbalboa]

Im torn between x390 and x1 gen 8. I just dont like x1's ddr3 ram. Is there a big difference between ddr3 and ddr4? thanks

[NoraAlfraidi]

Please can i upgrade this laptop? And if yes, what can I upgrade ?

[lambertj.]

Dude, you need to speak up. Can't understand a dang word you're saying.
