ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10

I use a thinkpad x1 carbon with a touchscreen I bought at microcenter. I’m a former computer engineer turned patent litigator and I lean on it about as much as you could imagine. The GPU can run several 4K panels if I want. Chassis is also solid and the output ports are unlikely to flake out by the

Well that's a shame, I've just recommended an E16 G3 to a family member on the grounds of being more reliable than the consumer machines at this price. In my defence the only other things at the price point were the T16 G3 (was worried the performance wouldn't last) and the L16 G2 (was worried the p

If I were at home most of the time, I’d get a cheaper laptop and a nicer desktop. Why pay for the portability and worse specs if you can afford to be attached to the wall? For on the go, I know tons of reporters do just fine with whatever cheapie laptop Walmart or Amazon has on sale at the time. Tha

Which models? We've been using X1 Carbons for about 7 years (100 users) and can count on one hand how many times I've had to fix a laptop, and use the other hand to count how many times I've had to have Lenovo on-site support fix an issue.

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

If you don’t need Windows, get an Apple Silicon. If you need Windows, get a Windows laptop. As someone who loves the build of the MBP, I can really recommend a Dell XPS. Magnesium case and carbon inside (haven’t looked at them for a while now though, hope they didn’t change it). Or look at the Lenov

We use Lenovo X1 Carbons and have had an overall pretty good experience. Like any vendor the biggest failure points we see are the usb ports that people abuse. Internally we rarely see hardware failures.

I use Debian on my x1 carbon gen 10. I was using Debian 12 for the longest time. Updated to Debian 13 a month ago. It’s very reliable and stable. kde alone makes it a worthwhile upgrade over gnome with Ubuntu imo The only downside to Debian is that they don’t update things often, so it may not be th

En mi punto de vista, este equipo te va a durar más de lo que te imaginas, eso sí como te recomendaron antes, revisa las pastas térmicas y los pads térmicos, yo tengo 3 equipos reacondicionados un t490, un Acer Travelmate p449 y un x1 carbon gen 10 y nada de lata, revisadas al momento de llegar y ya

I would go to the pawn shops in the area and see what they have, I got some good deals that way, 2 Thinkpads E14 for less than 200 each (not in the us, but for this I am writing the prices in us dollars). A Lenovo LOQ with core i-5 and a 3050 for around 450. And several others that were good deals,
