ThinkPad X1 Carbon

4k display kills your battery. Avoid X1 Carbon if you don't like soft touch coating. Some other models might have a soft touch as well, so look that up before buying. 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

• Is the i5-1235U going to bottleneck me noticeably for this kind of workload? No, but it's the least efficient processor generation that was ever released under the "core i" marketing umbrella. So battery life isn't good compared to the machines older or younger than it. - Would you go Gen 10 i5 or s

I'd go for T14, maybe t14s or X9 - the X1 Carbon always was "expensive, but cool and slow", it was never about being a good deal I also hate to say it, but if you are not overly attached windows/linux, just get a macbook. Even refurbished M4 Pro or something like that will be miles ahead in terms of

2 hours would be ridiculous depending on the workload. But yes, I had buyer's remorse. The OLED panel was beyond beautiful but I rarely got to look at it since I mostly used a docking station. Furthermore it also felt like I'd have to treat the screen like a raw egg because a replacement would be ve

Genuine question: do you think that people don't experience problems with Linux? The way you're phrasing the question in your 2nd paragraph makes it sound like you've not seen the frequest support posts that are made every day on practically every linux subreddit. I'm sure there are some idiots out

Company EDR going ham on every file, System Integrators like Lenovo not giving a fuck to properly update their drivers for W11, bottom of the barrel cooling solutions (engineered for some low voltage CPU 10 years ago) and bad thermal paste (and badly applied too) are the main culprits of why your la

Recimo Macbook Air je 1200€ z M5 procesorjem, 512G SSD in 16G RAM-a. Kaj realno dobiš boljšega za ta denar, in da zraven laufa baterija 10+ ur? Jaz ne najdem. Gledam Thinkpad X1 Carbon Gen13, 3000+€, kar je objektivno dražje kot Macbook Pro M5 PRO. Pri MBP dobim več RAM-a in bolj optimiziran OS, ter

X1 Carbon Gen 9 has charging issues (the charging circuitry gets hot and eventually dies). Stay away unless you know how to micro-solder.

Kam punu vet me linux, nemomentin qe bon call nuk perdor fr hardware acceleration per video, battery life is utter trash dhe ne premium thinkpads(kisha x1 carbon deri para 4 vitesh). Linux per desktop, MacBook si laptop, strong and cheap combo per pro work

It's not about OS features for me, I can make any of preferred ones from one OS to another work somehow with 3rd party apps or adjust to it. What I missed out on since M1 came out was the hardware effiency and the battery life. Nothing from other manufacturers can compete with the macbook air in the
