an excellent laptop which is ruined by the choice of replacing right control key with a fingerprint bump. remapping the useless copilot key is not a good substitute: it ruins my finger placement on other keyboards.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only had my new ThinkPad for a couple of weeks, but I've already used it for everything from writing work documents to creating and printing high school booster club materials to enjoying my son's baseball videos. I love the look and feel of this laptop, and it is so lightweight! It was so easy to transition from my old laptop and get everything set up. I was a little worried that I should have gone with a larger screen, but the size and clarity are perfect for what I need, and I have a second monitor for specific tasks. I am still learning all of the new/new-to-me features, but the phone link app might be my favorite so far. So helpful to be able to access text messages, e.g., confirmation codes, nice to scroll through photos, etc. directly from my ThinkPad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a long time user of Thinkpad X1 Carbons, and for me, they are the perfect laptop. I got so used to the nub mouse control and fantastic keyboard, that it's really hard to use another laptop.
I absolutely love this laptop. It's unbelievably light, yet there has been no significant compromise on its performance. It's admittedly expensive, but Lenovo has built a laptop that is quick, responsive, and has a good mix of ports. The optional GaN charger is also noticeably slimmer than power adapters I've used in the past, and the high end Lenovo dock works very well to make it a desktop replacement.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop is the best purchase I’ve ever made. It packs incredible power into a compact, lightweight design. It’s fast, has excellent battery life, and the display is crisp and vibrant. I absolutely love it!
