The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Review (2015)

 

In January of this year, I walked into the Lenovo booth at CES and almost immediately to the right there was a large display case set up, and inside was Eve. Eve looked great in the case all dressed in black, and was well attended to by her hosts. Eve...

Despite the battery life, I really enjoyed using the X1 Carbon. It has an understated look about it which is very traditional ThinkPad, but in a much slimmer design. It is very easy to carry around in a bag, and when you get where you need to go, there...

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Gen 12) Review: Light in Weight, Heavy in AI

 

Lenovo shrank the X1 Carbon's footprint while amping up performance with a Meteor Lake CPU.

Great keyboard with pointing stick ; Extremely thin and light ; Plenty of ports, using USB Type-A

Expensive ; Mediocre battery life ; OLED screen is not that vibrant

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Gen 12) offers a sleek new design, great keyboard, and strong local AI performance, but you’ll have to pay a hefty premium and settle for so-so battery life.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1 review: Better, bigger, bolder PC with a folding display

 

Lenovo ups its game when it comes to foldables, but it costs some serious cash

Beautiful folding OLED display ; Quality craftsmanship that we expect from ThinkPad line ; Included keyboard unlocks productivity-boosting operating modes

High price ; Large screen and weight uncomfortable for holding in one hand ; The foldable screen doesn’t lay completely flat when opened ; Bluetooth keyboard/stand is optional on the $2,499 base model

In the still-nascent market for PCs with folding displays, Lenovo surges ahead with the ThinkPad X1 Fold 16.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Review Tim Schiesser

 

Lenovo's signature business ultraportable is now in its 5th generation, adding new Intel Kaby Lake processors and a larger battery without sacrificing portability. And after using this laptop for a few weeks now, it's clear that Lenovo's minor...

Fantastic performance with class-leading battery life. Perfect selection of ports. Light and compact for a 14-inch laptop. Great keyboard and trackpad.

Expensive across entire hardware range.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon review: The business notebook to beat

 

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is a premium 14-inch business notebook geared toward the discerning business professional. It combines a no-nonsense design with top-end hardware, and provides just about everything you could want from an enterprise notebook.

Lightweight and solid construction ; Good battery life ; Wide range of connectivity options ; One of the best laptop keyboards on the market

Bottom-facing speakers can sound muffled ; No Thunderbolt 3 port ; Expensive

Then again, business devices tend to be priced a little higher because of their additional security and manageability features and access to a range of docking accessories, just look at the

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon review

 

The ultrathin business laptop that sacrifices nothing

Smaller and lighter in every way ; Improved Microsoft Precision Touchpad ; Windows 10 Signature Edition cuts bloatware

Expensive

Lenovo refines the already excellent ThinkPad X1 Carbon, making it smaller and lighter, while cutting bloatware and adding more power with Kaby Lake processors.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (2015) review

 

This high-end business Ultrabook struggles to sell its price tag

Excellent, reliable performance ; The very best keyboard and trackpad ; Thin and solid build quality

Paradoxically glare-prone anti-glare coating ; Still no SD card reader ; Unimpressive battery life

The Lenovo X1 Carbon offers reliable performance with a stellar keyboard, but short battery life and a glare-filled screen are two untenable problems.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Ultrabook (2015 model)

 

It's a return to normal for the ThinkPad X1 Carbon's keyboard layout, and this alone is noteworthy

High-quality keyboard ; Solid build quality ; Great portability

An IPS screen isn't standard ; No SD card slot

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (type 3444-2NM) Ultrabook review

 

Those of you looking for a business-ready Ultrabook will love the ThinkPad X1 Carbon

Build quality ; Keyboard ; Large, smooth touchpad ; Fast SSD

Vertical viewing angles a little narrow ; RAM not upgradeable ; Non-standard SSD ; Pricey

Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Carbon is aimed at business users who need an Ultrabook management features and better security than a standard model. It's well built, quite comfortable to use, and performs quite well. However, it's not a user-serviceable unit...
