Gen 11 ThinkPad X1 Carbon Laptop with Intel Core i7-1365U vPro Processor, 14" WUXGA 100% sRGB Non-Touch Display, 32GB LPDDR5 RAM, 1TB Gen4 Performance SSD, Thunderbolt, and Windows 11 Pro

I have owned Lenovo products in the past, even before they bought the IBM brand. Some were great, others not. After reading many reviews and watch utube videos, I decided to get this for my consulting work. I ordered the configuration with 32GB RAM amd 1TB of M.2 storage, non-touch panel. Windows 11 Pro preinstalled.Performance: it's better than I expected. I think Intel is finally stepping up on more powerful and efficient processors for laptops. I would have preferred an AMD version but the X-carbon is Intel only. I highly recommend going with at least 32GB of RAM if you're a power user. Windows 11 is a RAM hog for sure.Battery Life: So far it lasts many hours, I was expecting 2-3 given my history with power-laptops. But this is a much welcomed improvement. Plus, many of the power-banks can drive this as a backup while traveling.Case:Keyboard:Display: The case is light, thin and super rigid. Nicely done. It does not flex at all. The keyboard is excellent as past models and can be back-lit with a keystroke. This LCD panel is nice and sharp, although more nits would be better. There is an upgrade, but to costly for me. The camera has a blocking shutter, to keep the CIA or other probes from peeking... :)Overall, I bought this at a great price, just before Christmas. My last laptop was a Dell XPS 13 and it was really nice, but I decided to try this after reading and watching many reviews. A great value for those needing a lightweight business laptop for the road.Highly recommended!

This laptop is perfect for traveling. At only 1 pound, I can easily put in my camera backpack without any additional strain or weight. Functions perfectly, easy setup, good warranty and customer support. Excellent battery life.
