I am a longtime Lenovo user. My new X1 works perfectly, is easy to carry, and has a great screen. Thin and light enough to carry easily.

This laptop is what I hope it would be, sturdy, fast, and lightweight. I would have liked an SD card port, but that's my only complaint.

My ThinkPad X1 is just what I expected - rugged, dependable - and able to do whatever I need. I configured my ThinkPad to dual boot, so at startup I choose between Linux or Windows 11. Both run equally well on this Lenovo!

Thinkpads are pricey... but worth every cent. Compact, light, but with a great display & long battery life. They are not just for business. They are great for home & personal use.

a compact and easy to carry machine that can accomplish most of the task demanded for personal or business use. The keyboard is comfortable with nice tactile feedback and it is backlit. The screen is bright. Battery life is very good. Overall, a very good value

Excellent computer. Solid build quality. The redesigned display hinge has a tab for opening the laptop easily (great improvement over previous generations). Stays cool (Intel Ultra 5 125U). I like the My only wish is it had upgradable RAM.

I have used Lenovo in the past for work and has always been fast and reliable. I had used a 2016 model for home for years and was working great, but needed to upgrade to a more current version of Windows, otherwise, I would still continue using it.

Performs very well as a work laptop. memory and processor speed more than adequate for preforming work activities including Office apps and video calls
Douglas B.

2025-06-02T20:00:00
Overall this laptop is fairly decent, the specs and operating system is smooth and the UI is appealing for having a Microsoft OS. The outside design is sleek and appealing to look at, very thin but durable for its size. However there is alot of bloat present in its system, and be careful when you go to remove the Lenovo software. Unfortunately a lot of their software is embedded into how the laptop functions so removing it might cause errors or malfunctions. Overall a decent laptop.

So far so good and works as expected. I'll update this when I've had some time to properly test it. However, on the first look, it's definitely heavier than my current laptop which is x1 gen 6

While I have owned several ThinkPads and generally think they are good, this one has given me more hours of issues than any other. Service has been fine, but I have better things to do than mess with a brand new machine.

I've been using the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 (Intel, 14") for a few weeks now, and I'm seriously impressed. It's incredibly lightweight but still feels solid and durable-perfect for frequent travel. The keyboard is exactly what you'd expect from a ThinkPad: responsive and comfortable for long work sessions. Performance-wise, it's fast, quiet, and handles multitasking with ease. Battery life easily gets me through a full workday. The matte screen reduces glare, and the overall build quality is top-notch. Definitely a premium laptop that lives up to the ThinkPad reputation!
