Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th gen

I really like Lenovo’s new Thinkpad Carbon X1 and I think it has it where it counts: the construction, the inputs and the multitude of screens and hardware configurations, among others. Compared to the previous models, this 2019 X1 Carbon 7th gen improves in the screens, audio and noise-levels, but settles for shorter battery life and some performance limitations in demanding loads. We'll talk about all these aspects in the review below.

Only disappointing battery life mars Lenovo’s ThinkPad X1 Carbon 7th Gen, an otherwise excellent 14-inch business notebook.
