Out of the box the X1 Carbon is an impressive machine. Very light weight and aesthetically pleasing. The keyboard is a pleasure to use and the touchpad is much better than other PCs Ive recently used. The model I have has the standard 1920 x 1080 display which is fine for an ultraportable. Should you desire something comparable to a Mac Retina display, I recommend upgrading to the Lenovo hi-res HDR display. For typical business use - email, MS Office, web browsing, video conferencing, etc., the Intel 8th Gen i5 processor, 256GB SSD and 8GB RAM configuration is fine. The X1 also has a good array of ports including USB A-type, USB-C/Thunderbolt, and HDMI. After a few days of use, battery life is impressive -- probably 10 hours with web browsing, Office, and email usage. The only knock Id give it in terms of hardware is the lid has a lot of flex to it, but I suppose this is to be expected since its not aluminum. The other negative is not the fault of the hardware, but rather Windows 10. Setup was tedious. After going through multiple rounds of updates taking a couple of hours, I had to do a full reset and start over because the Start Menu would not save any changes. I would delete the Windows Games and other bloatware I dont need only to have it reappear. I am not set up on a domain where a Group Policy is doing this, so I decided to reset and that solved the problem. I also had to do a BIOS update and some Lenovo-dictated driver updates. After three days of use, all has been good. Within this price range, I have recently used a Microsoft Surface Laptop and a new Dell XPS 13 and prefer this Lenovo to either of those.

I am disappointed about this product, the key "Ctrl" just fall off the keyboard the second day I received my laptop. How could this happen????

My laptop screen blinks continuously when its connected to wifi network. I have sent it to Lenovo support twice. After the service, it works one month perfect after blinking starts. I dont know how to solve my problem

I bought this laptop brand new less than two months ago and it will not turn on at all. Not sure what the problem is but tried multiple power cords and reset button - still no joy. This will likely get returned.

Think pads are worth the money!! These are extremely well made, the battery lasts a very long time. Only issue, and I think its a Windows 10 thing, when you turn it and put it in a carry bag, make sure its OFF before you close the lid!!!

This is the best laptop I’ve ever had. Extremely light weight and powerful! Battery life is amazing, it lasts all day long. I don’t even bring my charger to the office with me. I just leave it at home. Fingerprint reader is great. My only complaint is that I need a dongle for Ethernet.

I purchased this laptop for our CFO of the company to replace his Lenovo W530. He wanted speed, but something lighter than his monster W530. This has been a perfect replacement for him in terms of speed, screen image quality and weight. No issues with it at all after almost 3 months of use. Always complements that this is the best laptop he has used.

This laptop is really suitable for collage student. The best thing about it is the weight. Carrying it is as light and easy as carrying an iPad. I really love it though it is quite expensive. Btw, i5 is good enough and i7 can cost extra money, so choose i5 to save money.

I bought it last year，and I encountered a series problems during the using. Firstly，the wireless didnt work sometimes and it greatly impeded my life and working. Secondly，the picture quality is so terrible as to being worse than my Sony laptop bought 7 years ago. Thirdly，the touchpad often goes malfunction and I couldnt move the cursor. The last but not least，processing is not fluent and will be stuck sometimes. What a disgusting laptop！！！I seriously doubt that it was REFURNISHED.
