ThinkPad X1 Carbon

X1C is a carbon fiber composite, most others are an aluminum alloy + plastic. So you get a far sturdier chassis with a lower weight, making them ridiculously durable for their size.

I'd go with the same CPU you had, 1185g7 is a good option on a budget. Or AMD 6650u, 6850u are still powerful enough, battery efficie

The "problem" is that all distros use essentially the same kernel... you might find some variance in battery life between distros, but it won't be significant.
