The best Yoga X1 ever
on January 31, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a looooooooooooooong time Thinkpad owner so I basically grew up with laptops having a little red nipple which now I can't live without. I've got several Thinkpads around the house but recently got this one to replace my gen 1 Yoga X1 that I love. As with all Thinkpads, this keyboard is excellent and I love the separate PGUP/DN/HOME/END/INS/DEL keys. On the occasions when I need to use this for work, I'm a programmer, and having those keys is the difference between misery and efficiency.
Let's compare this gen 6 to the gen 1 for a bit. Processor of course is much newer and supposedly quicker. To me, for everyday tasks, I really don't notice much difference. The gen 1 I had has the i7-6600u, this gen 6 has the i7-1165g7. I really felt the 6600u chip was quite zippy.
The gen 1 I had had 8gb of RAM, this has 16. With Teams, Zoom, and every other video conferencing software out there, the more ram the better!
Battery life - a little hard to say this early on. Again, I felt the gen 1 had great battery life for its weight and other performance. Always super pleased with that. This gen 6 seems at least as good.
Audio - the speakers on this thing are amazeballs compared with the gen 1, which wasn't bad. I can't fathom how THAT much sound can come out of this little thing! Having said that, I mostly listen to music and do conferencing with headphones, so the speakers don't get a lot of use. But when they do, they sound great!
Camera - don't use it a whole lot, as i have a separate one placed precisely for work. However, this one's low-light performance is very good.
Screen - THIS is where the huge improvement is for me. First off, the aspect ratio (16:10) is much better for productivity tasks. The color depth is much better than the gen 1. And it's brighter - I got the 400nits 1920x1200 display. I thought about the super high res one, but I have other laptops with those extra pixels and to be honest I don't feel like they're necessarily worth it. For one thing, I use remote desktop sessions a LOT for work and the extra high res on "this end" can make the remote window difficult to use. Yes, there are ways around that, but half the time I find myself just dumbing down the resolution to something like 1920x1200 anyways. So for this machine, I figure why bother, just stick with the lower def. And I have been very pleased.
Case/body - we've moved into the aluminum world with the gen 6. Personally, I like plastic or carbon fiber on the gen 1. It just feels less likely to dent, ding, or scratch. Yes, the aluminum looks very sexy - in fact, the gen 6 looks VERY sexy indeed - but I have to wonder how much of the aluminum is just for looks over function. *shrug*
Power/charger - yeah, we're on USB-C now, replacing the beloved (to me) rectangular Thinkpad adapter. I liked that one because I have several Lenovos which all take it. Still, I did discover my Thinkpad Extreme X1 gen 4 will power from a Dell 130 watt USB-C adapter. Soooooooo maybe I can power all my Thinkpads with one of those. I guess it's just the way of the future.
Ports - sweet heaven I love the ports on this! I have an X*S 15 at work with a whopping 3 USB-C ports. That's all. One of those is for power, too. That leaves you two. This Yoga has 2 USB-C (one for power), 2 USB-A, *AND* and HDMI port! Brilliant! You don't have to sacrifice ports when you have a thin and light computer. I've run it fine with a port replicator that provides power through its USB-C connection, one monitor in the HDMI port and another in the USB-C port (I prefer that to running them off the port replicator).
To sum up: If you're a Yoga X1 fan with a previous generation, the biggest reason to upgrade to this is the screen dimensions and improved colors and brightness. For me, all other improvements are relatively minor.
I would recommend this to a friend!
