Peetah what does it mean?
Dunno what you're smoking dude but new ThinkPads like the Gen 14 X1 Carbons look sleek and modern. They are slim while still having selections of HDMI, USBC, thunderbolt, USB a, 3.5mm audio, displayport, sd, SIM. They don't even come with RJ45. These things are crazy high spec for a laptop and are t

Peetah what does it mean?
To all the people who say Thinkpad is not slim, you haven't seen the x1 carbon. I chose it over the MacBook Pro my work was offering. Great screen colors. Decent audio. Very vivid display supporting HDR (10?) and Dolby vision. Most importantly, IT IS SO FREAKING LIGHT than the competition

Lenovo X1 Carbon is the best laptop to ever exist
Great keyboard, great display, good speakers, thin and light, supports all ports, exceptional build quality which makes it super durable, good battery life, great design and its just an overall incredible machine to use. Unlike HP or other brands with similar specs idk why but the x1 carbon is incre

13 Pro arrived today and I must say I’m absolutely thrilled!
I haven’t done much intensive use yet but everything has been very snappy (I only have the ultra 5 FWIW) The battery came at 95% intriguingly, i set the charge limit at 80 but I haven’t plugged it in yet besides for 2 min on first boot (it keeps the battery disconnected at first until it gets AC). a

What’s all the hyper with the X1 Carbons
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. Lenovo has had a build partnership with Intel for this model forever so they get specifically engineered, making their

I saw this guy talking about that thinkpad can offer you many upgradable parts in older models are he fr?
Ram is so expensive now, I bought a near new thinkpad but it had soldered ram, price of ram would increase past my budget for the build. That's just a me problem though. I really needed something light and portable to tunnel into my home pc. ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 for 300usd 16gb system ram

Do you prefer light and thin ThinkPad or heavy and thick ThinkPad?
I prefer durable. And light. Like my X1 carbon. Except for the USB-C ports.

Was zur Hölle ist mit den ThinkPad-Preisen passiert? KI hin oder her, das ist doch nicht mehr normal.
Waren sie. Nur gerade nicht, weil Apple seine Einkäufe lange im voraus plant und Lieferanten unter Druck setzt. Ich habe mein TP X1 Carbon 12th Gen im Maximalausbau (Oled, 64GB RAM, 4TB Storage, H195) für ~2.6k vor etwa 2 Jahren regulär via Lenovo gekauft. Für den Preis hätte ich mir vielleicht ein

As a student, you might as well come back to MacBook - brand-new Neo is 850 CAD with education discount, or you should be able to find older M chip Air models under 1000 CAD second hand. You get Microsoft Office IIRC, good battery life, good bright screen (some ThinkPads model configs still somewhat
