Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen 14 up for sale on U.S. site

These are super premium high end Windows systems. For the price, if you don't need Windows you can get an a MacBook Pro, and those systems absolutely scream. At the moment though, Lenovo hasn't made most configurations available so you're stuck with mostly low-end processors and worse integrated GPU

ThinkPanther X1 Carbon Gen 14 Unboxing & First Impressions - Core Ultra X7

what makes panther lake so interesting are the H processors The non-h stuff isn't appreciably better than lunar lake / carbon13. 356H probably won't be much faster than the 255H but it should be more efficient. Lenovo didn't really want to put the 255h in the carbon 13. Maybe H class will finally ma

Worried about X1 Carbon Gen 14's Battery Life (Should we get a Gen 13 when we still can?)

You need to forget about that X1 Carbon Gen 10 and Alder Lake. Last year's Arrow Lake H CPUs were also in the same performance class as Arrow Lake P and those,while not quite as good as Lunar Lake, were also not that far away from Lunar Lake in terms of efficiency - which makes sense, as they used t

Best Computers for School

4 years ago I tried to do my MS on a MacBook and because of MS excel I bought myself a cheap laptop to do excel tasks. I tried dual booting and parallels. It just didn’t work. Just get a Lenovo X1 carbon.

Why do people generally buy Carbon X1 when they are so ridiculously expensive?

I bought my X1 Carbon Gen 10 in 2023 not because it's the fastest. I travel a lot usually backpacking for months at a time and weight is a very important consideration. It's also sturdy and well built. Good battery life on Linux. At the time my top contenders were X1 or Dell XPS 13. Having Linux ins

Laptop for Computer Science

Grab a Lenovo with an i7 11th gen or higher with 16gb DDR4 ram and 1tb M.2 Storage. Models like the L14 are great and upgrading is easy. Or you can look into a the X1 Carbon Series. Amazing lightweight but powerful machines. (Only issue you can only upgrade it’s M.2 on most models)

Curhat Sedikit: Thinkpad T14 Gen 1

4 juta udah nggak dapet banyak sekarang. Tapi beberapa tahun lalu sebelum harga pada naik, masih bisa dapet ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 Intel di 4 juta tipis. Huge upgrade dibanding Intel gen 8-10, Iris Xe emang nge-carry gen 11. Btw, nggak banyak yang bisa diakalin dari Intel gen 8-10 selain matiin patch Sp

Dell, Prices and Names and whatever this is...

There's no way RAM prices are justifying what Dell, Lenovo, et al. is selling this junk for. The X1 Carbon has a worse processor than the MacBook Pro, 12GB less RAM, worse GPU, and it costs almost 900€ more. For the price you can buy a MacBook Pro with 48GB RAM and an iPad Pro 11 on top.

Laptop requirements

Almost any intel laptop made in the last 10 years will be fine. There are good reasons in robotics to have a very good gaming laptop for things like machine vision, ML, etc. Also, having a machine which can run CUDA code is very nice. That said, I suspect you will rarely need this, most of the time
