ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10

Dunno, probably because of the fact I don't have hopes. After the community's disparaging of the ThinkPad 25 project at launch, Lenovo's response was a big fat "fuck you" with the 30th anniversary where they merely added RGB labels to an X1 Carbon, and I expect that to continue into 35. Unfortunatel

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.

Bit expensive, I got a i7 12 gen 12 core cpu, intel GPU, 16-10 screen 2k touchscreen. It’s a x1 carbon gen 10, paid 280$

Update guys! I was offered a used X1 Carbon Gen 10, “maxed out” with i7 (probably the P chip), 32GB RAM, 1TB and 2.8K OLED screen. The price: $600 USD! But the setback: broken webcam… but I can get an external one for under $50. I’ll meet with the seller to check its specs and condition in a couple

Cheap is in the eye of the beholder. You are asking for a CPU with a passmark of 12k or better. Second hand lenovo thinkpad X1 carbon gen 10 or later. Install mint yourself. They are not cheap in my book.
