Full Analysis

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon is a Business Laptops product from Lenovo. The ThinkPad X1 series is a line of high-end ThinkPad laptop and tablet computers produced by Lenovo. It is a sub-series of the ThinkPad X series designed to be extra premium with material that make them lighter and portable, having been originally classed as Ultrabooks. While the ThinkPad T series is the flagship ThinkPad line, the ThinkPad X1 series's X1 Carbon specifically has been cited as a flagship model since its introduction in 2012. Build quality feels a step above the price point, with minimal flex in the keyboard deck. The keyboard has enough travel that long writing sessions do not become fatiguing. Our editorial team scores it 4.5/5 based on typical specs, feature set, and price-to-value for this category, alongside 2207 community ratings, making it a very good choice for most buyers within laptops.

Our Verdict

At approximately $422.99, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon lands as a very good choice for most buyers. If backed by a reasonable warranty matters most to you, it is worth shortlisting alongside other business laptops.
