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

Solid build, lightweight for a 14-inch machine, Excellent keyboard and trackpad, Fast performance
Expensive, Narrow viewing angles
The X1 Carbon Touch is among the best Windows 8 Ultrabooks around, with a comfortable keyboard, fast performance and a lightweight build. Still, it's pricey, even for a high-end ultraportable....
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon (2014) will ship later in January, priced from $1,299. While we're disappointed at the lack of a removable battery, our opening impressions of the Thinkpad X1 Carbon (2014) are positive. Featuring a powerful and efficient Haswell pr...
Exceptionally thin, light, and strong, Above-average performance, Terrific keyboard and pointing devices, Fast battery charging
Short battery life (and you can't swap in a fresh one), Just one USB 3.0, one USB 2.0 (and you'll need one for ethernet)

Durable and sleek design, Comfortable, backlit keyboard, Sharp and responsive touchscreen, Snappy overall performance
Shorter battery life than Windows 7 version, Some touchpad issues, Wi-Fi adapter can be wonky
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Touch is a strong and sleek Ultrabook that combines Windows 8 with a sharp touch screen, but you'll sacrifice some battery life....
Abstract: It's review time again here at TechGuySmartBuy and we are back with another computer from our good friends at Lenovo. I have been testing the X1 Carbon Touch ultrabook for about one month now. The Carbon Touch is a slight refresh from the company'...
High CPU and application performance, Light, rigid casing, Quiet, even relatively quiet during load, Big touchpad, Integrated 3G modem, Backlit keyboard, Feedback strong input devices, Good battery life, Short battery charge time, AR coated touchscreen
Tight viewing angles compared with IPS, CPU throttling during extreme load, Few interfaces, no docking port, High price
HP's EliteBook 9470m disappoints with a color-weak HD screen, Dell's Latitude 6430u optionally available with HD+, that we have not yet tested. The casing is thicker and the runtime is shorter.The new SSD that now comes from Intel is state-of-the-art, but...
