still using my X1C gen 6. one of the thuderbolt part dies, and the rubbery screen frame starts falling apart and gets sticky. still can get 4-5 hours for work. definitely the best keyboard my finger ever typed on a laptop.

Can't decide between gen 11 and gen 12 because of the battery life! Would gen 12 with 1920*1200 screen last as long as the 11th gen?

Thanks for this helpful video , i got an question i really wanna the answer and there's nobody better than you so i'm wondering does the airpods max sound better than dt 990 pro or 770 pro? or is it not near in the sound quality ,i've the dt 990 and i want the max so bad but its too expensive and i'm thinking is it really worth it or do i will hear a new level of sound quality if i buy it
@ThisIsTechToday 2 ай бұрын
Thanks! The AirPods Max has a rather boosted high end and reduced mid-range, so it's scooped. The Beyers will have a more natural and neutral sound. I don't prefer the APM for sound.

I got the oled screen version before they replaced it by the WUXGA screen in the US. I thought it was a steal since I found a coupon for 1TB and 32gb ram version for just around 1600USD. However, I find the noise from the fan is very loud. I have been using it for three days, even only browsing on internet watching some videos, the fan goes loud! The main reason I am getting this G12 x1carbon is because my old laptop (Latitude 7400 from 2020) is getting slow and noisy when I ran analysis in R. I chose x1carbon Gen12 because I had the Gen2 of it since 2014 and it lasted until 2020, it was the best laptop I ever owned. Now this Gen 12 is louder than the Latitude 7400...TBH I am disapointed. I am considering returning it but not decided yet.

@ThisIsTechToday I got it for school, and I know this sounds unoriginal, but it's just works for what I needed it to do. Very lightweight, strong battery (I can still get 6-8 hours out of it) Thought about upgrading because it is showing its age. Might get a Gen 11 because $1500 is easier than $2200 right now, lol.

nice review - just for the folks who are considering buying this machine: maxtech just compared a Macbook Air 15 M3 with the new Dell XPS 14 - the Macbook Air 15 M3 literally "smoked" the Dell XPS 14. Performance and battery life just sucked because of the Intel Ultra cpu. There's no difference to the X1 Carbon G12. Hopefully we will see Lenovo Thinkpads with the new Snapdragon X Elite soon.

@guillaumedu971 Ай бұрын
Only two USB-C ports in 2024?? And with one used for charging, that essentially leaves us with just one available port. That’s hardly sufficient. I wish Lenovo offered a ThinkPad configuration with at least 3 USB-C ports. USB-A ports have become nearly obsolete, though I wouldn't mind having just one. And also a better compatibility with Linux systems.

G8 is a "boring betty". The HP EliteBook G10 is nice. Far better color accuracy, 1200p display resolution, QHD web camera, and an excellent 13th gen CPU. Also, G10 continues to allow adjustable RAM.

It always broke at the same spot even after changing the frame. You mentioned carbon fibre as part of the materials for the frame so my concerns may be unfounded

From a different channel, they mentioned that Lenovo discontinued the X1 line and just combined X1’s specs into the P1 line.
