The X1 is a fabulous computer. Carbon makes it strong but very light weight. Battery life has been great - I can easily get 6-7 hours for work use (email, web, documents without heavy video). It's slim and easy to carry around.

Firstly, the same review I tried to post few days ago on Lenovo website and it was rejected as ''it did not meet all our website guidelines''. It should be a big warning sign for potential buyers as Lenovo controls which negative reviews can be posted.

i just got a new x1 (2nd gen 3 one) and thought people would like to know that i got an updated keyboard that doesn't have the issues that people complained about with the 3rd gen x1 (and that my other one has) and which almost kept me from buying another one.

size; trackpoint; screen; better keyboard

slightly heavier than previous x1

The charger worked fine at first now all it does is beep and wont charge

The ThinkPad X1 sells in India for a price of Rs 1,02,000, which might seem like a lot to a regular laptop customer. Add the fact that it's very light and easy to carry around while still delivering a decent amount of performance and battery life.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 has a backlit keyboard, edge-to-edge gorilla glass screen, the infamous click touchpad, and high-fidelity Dolby sound, and it has some serious processing chops. Its standard battery, however, is unimpressive.

Sturdy construction; Gorilla glass is scratch-proof; Backlit keyboard; Great typing experience; HDMI and DisplayPort; Fast 2.5-inch HDD; Standard Voltage processors only; An excellent mix of wireless technologies; Dolby sound is worthy of entertainment laptop

No Anti-glare screen available; Standard battery alone doesn't crank out enough battery life; Hefty for an ultraportable without an optical drive

It's easy to fall in love with the ThinkPad X1, and we haven't been able to escape its charms. Everything from its ultra-thin magnesium-alloy frame to its smooth rubberised shell and its contoured keys oozes class and sophistication.

Time of ultrabooks has started.Ordinary laptops couldn't give you much but ultrabooks are a hell of performance machines. The one such great machine is Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon. This is an expensive laptop but do mind that it is worth it. Fast?

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 is clearly a product for a consumer business, so a strong focus on quality, neglecting the design slightly. The strengths are a body strong and resistant to falls, an ergonomic keyboard and spill-resistant, the fingerprint reader to protect your data from prying eyes, HDMI,...

RAM, USB 3.0 port, memory card reader, fingerprint reader, spill-resistant keyboard; Chassis resistant to falls, Bluetooth and optional WiMax

Internal memory; not eye-catching Design

Lenovo got a lot of things right with the ThinkPad X1 Carbon, and all the advantages carry over to the Carbon Touch: it's light, gorgeous, functional, and powerful enough for every realistic ultrabook task.

Touchscreen works well; Gorgeous; sleek design; Solid performance; Great keyboard

Gets really hot; Expensive; Too much bloatware
