The software
Strangely. For as mighty as the firmware on the trackpad and keyboard are
The business-facing software that Lenovo loads onto the X1 is more oppressive than you'll find from other OEMs—even repeat offenders like Asus and Sony. Things like a
Lack of Ethernet and SD Card slot, Mediocre endurance

Abstract: At just 1.17 kg , the new Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is the world's lightest 14″ business-class Ultrabook. It is amongst the thinnest Ultrabooks in the market with a thickness of just 16.5 mm . All this is thanks to its satellite-grade carbon fiber chassis...
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...
If you're in need of a well-built, well-designed notebook you absolutely should consider the ThinkPad X1 Carbon. In fact, I'd say it's one of the few Ultrabooks I can recommend without reservation.There are no serious problems here that prevent me from do...
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...
Abstract: The ThinkPad X1 Carbon 2015 update is an amazing notebook that deserves a spot on the buying list of anyone searching for a thin and light notebook with long battery life and an excellent keyboard.Lenovo builds on the success of the first two models to de...
The X1 Carbon that Lenovo shipped out for review is likely the fastest Ultrabook yet. The Broadwell Core i7 is certainly a step ahead of the other devices we have tested, and the included PCIe SSD is basically the fastest drive offered today. It is also o...
