[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine eats chrome tabs for breakfast. It'll make short work of whatever computing tasks you throw at it. Rendering 3d scenes? No problem. Gaming? You got it. Running Photoshop? Piece of cake. And all of that power comes with the loudest fan you could possibly imagine. I'm not even angry. I'm impressed. Other laptops with their puny fans will cower in fear at the Decibels that this bad boy throws out.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Laptop is great. Works well and fast. The only slight down side is the screen has a small flickering every so often.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As the new laptop required software and firmware updates, and while following instructions to the letter, my new X1 laptop came up with an error requiring a new WIN10 install. (this of course covers the calls place to helpdesk to troubleshoot and press the reset button, etc). The worst part was looking for an alternate computer where to download such large software installer as the X1 was not capable of connecting or allowing online browsing after the firmware auto update.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The shipment is fast. I'm a loyal ThinkPad user. Just updated my ThinkPad T440p to X1 Extreme Gen 3 (64G + touch screen version). The laptop is awesome! It runs fast and satisfy my daily office work and computing work needs. Fast speed saves time! Sometimes it makes noises when heavy computing is running.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The graphics are simply amazing. Was debating about getting an OLED screen and I’m glad I did. Having a bit of issues with the fingerprint reader for sign-in but hoping that it works itself out. Overall great computer so far.
