I have used the X1 carbon (6th gen) for just over two weeks now, and it is an incredible computer. The keyboard is extremely nice to type on, and the trackpad is very accurate. The HDR display looks amazing. The computer is very fast and also has great battery life.
The cooling fans rarely come on during normal computing, so the machine is practically silent. Even when the fans come on it's still very quiet. Also, it feels very cool to the touch.
The speakers, however, are not great for listening to music. But I would just plug in some headphones or external speakers anyways.
I have had this computer for about 2 weeks and am very impressed. Build quality and weight (or lack thereof) are amazing. I ordered a relatively basic model (1.6GHZ, 8MB RAM, 1920x1080) and it is definitely more than adequate for my needs (which are, admittedly, not very onerous). I have not really abused it yet or tried to do anything to resource intensive, but overall can say that this is a very nice machine that has worked perfectly for me so far.
I've always had a 15" laptop so was hesitant to get a 14" screen. When I received the X1, it exceeded my expectations. The screen is bright and vibrant, and this sleek, lightweight device is exceptional. Nothing bad I can say about it.
I bought it a few weeks ago. It's solid, light to carry around and yet powerful and fast for my work and daily usage. I really like the keyboard and the battery life is pretty good. I am very happy with it. The only thing I'm very disappointed is the price. Just a few weeks, the price went lower than what I paid less. You are really taking your chance when you would get the best deal.
The laptop is light and durable, but the battery does not last very long as expected. I'm a consultant, I use the laptop to write emails, browse internet, run spreadsheet and edit documents. The battery dies after about 5-6 hours of use. I thought the battery would last a bit longer.

This is really light, good for carry around. I love this laptop except one thing. the battery life is only half of what it’s stated. I am using an i5 motherboard for office apps only, no game, no video. The battery life is only last above 8hours, which is a little bit disappointed. But recharged is really fast.
