ThinkPad X1 Extreme

Yes. It was time to update my ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 3 OLED. I think it was $7k AUD around 2020 so I had that amount budgeted over time to replace about now. I want another OLED, 2-4TB SSD, 64-128GB memory and great video card. Priced up multiple ThinkPad models to around ~$12k-$16k AUD. Fuuuuuuuck

I mean I have cheaper laptops from 20yrs ago that still work. For $600 I would not buy a X1 Extreme Gen 2 (which is basically the same as my P1 Gen 2). You can go to BestBuy or whatever and buy a $600 brand new Lenovo laptop that isn't a Thinkpad that will spank the hell out of the X1E Gen 2. It won

No results found for X1 Extreme 4th Gen (Type 20Y5, 20Y6) Laptop (ThinkPad) - Type 20Y6. No results found for X1 Extreme 4th Gen (Type 20Y5, 20Y6) Laptop (ThinkPad) - Type 20Y5. How odd.

Don’t buy. The X1E Gen2 is horrible. It had a serious keyboard issue and many other drivers issues. I had one and Lenovo replaced it for a Gen3 under warranty (which I still have, and works okay).

You can use glass trackpad of x1 extreme in t480 i also have T480 but no mods and my ThinkPad is not good in looks

Mau kasih heads up kalau mau beli seri X1, terutama X1 Carbon, X1 Extreme. Ini lini flagship, speknya premium dan sering jadi target kanibalan oknum nakal. Part aslinya mahal jadi ada oknum refurbisher Indo yang beli unit bagus, ambil part premium-nya, terus dijual lagi. Yang paling sering kejadian

I gave up on Lenovo ThinkPads in 2019, in part because I bought 3 for me and my friends, and they all broke down within a year and were pretty much constant trouble (x1e G1 and g2) and then because I was living in Hong Kong at the time during the crackdown, which the CCP began in July and continues

Thanks for the answer :) I am using the thunderbolt 3 workstation dock gen 2. The dock itself is working properly since it does not give any issue with my X390. I already checked the screen refresh and it was set to be 60hz all the time, in fact the screen going off and on was not related to unplugg

The Geekbench GPU compute performance is really poor on these GPUs for some reason, relative to the 8 Elite Gen 5. The current numbers we have for the X2-85 wildly vary and it's not a big sample size but I would have expected OpenCL to be significantly better on the Adreno X2-85 than the Adreno 840

I agree that Qualcomm is shooting themselves in the foot with Windows PC market. Lots of hype and enthusiasm and teasers followed my mediocre real world results. It's not even one thing. It's a number of small things that are adding up. The execution is just not there. I've seen this before in my ow
