I own multiple thinkpads and bought a ThinkPad X1 carbon i7 with the upgraded OLED panel a few months ago. It was a really nice notebook but ultimately I ended up returning it after a week for two reasons. 1) windows 11 is a confused mess and 2) with the i7 and the upgraded OLED panel the battery life was abysmal (3-4 hours of moderate use). For the kind of money I spent I was really disappointed. Ended up going with an M2 MacBook pro and it's a significantly better experience for all day battery life editing photos. MacOS isn't perfect but it's so much better than Windows 11 which is a complete disappointment.

You won’t get any meaningful negative views that really matter in this review as it is sponsored by the manufacturer. In every other review, for example, there are frequent references to the fact that USB C is not on both sides as this is irritating for charging wire route purposes but suddenly here this video makes no reference to this shortcoming. Further, this review makes a benefit that the fan noise is under 40 dB yet you can certainly hear the fans in a meeting. Not great even under normal mixed productivity use but this review makes no mention of it. I usually like Matthew’s work but he should avoid the temptation to sully his reputation by accepting sponsorship,from the manufacturer of the product he is reviewing. Bad call. This laptop might well be good for certain use cases but it is far from great.

MacBook Pros are at the top of the video editing hierarchy. Asus is 2nd place. Everyone else is fighting for 3rd.

One day, about ten years ago, my laptop Thinkpad X220 refused to boot the operating system from the ssd. At that moment, I was in a hotel in a small city in the far north, and I urgently needed this laptop to perform urgent tasks. In this situation, I simply booted a second operating system that was pre-installed on the second hard drive. Since then, I have believed that a laptop has no right to be called a “business laptop” if it does not have a second drive on which to install a second system. I have the same opinion regarding laptops without a flashlight (the X220 laptop had a flashlight «ThinkLight»), regarding laptops without a trackpoint, and, more recently, laptops without customizable backlighting for each key, and laptops with matrices subject to PWM flicker. And unfortunately, not a single modern laptop fits these requirements. I hope that Lenovo will someday release something that meets all these conditions, or ASUS will overtake them if they add a trackpoint to the ASUS ExpertBook B5 Flip IPS.

Not booting Windows would be a red flag for me, and I can confirm that I used to buy ThinkPads, but poor QC and blue screen of death meant I gave up on them, and after two Dells that died a year or so after warranty, I moved to Macs, and I have a 12-y-o and 7-y-o MB Pro that still run! So no to Lenovo and no to Windows for me!
@intellectbuilder8 ай бұрын
In my practice, this was an isolated case, and it was not caused by the operating system. I have no complaints about Windows other than their new Start Menu. I described in my post one example of why having a second drive is important. But people's lives depend on the reliability of some laptops, and for this reason, increased fault tolerance is required from these devices. For many businessmen, it is important that the failure of the ssd during an important business meeting cannot cause its interruption, or cause the loss of at least one minute of work records. Therefore, it is important that information is continuously duplicated onto a second disk for backup. But many modern laptops do not have a second drive, and for some reason manufacturers position them as business laptops.

I have a X1 Yoga gen 3 from 2018 and it is rock solid still - with no noticeable wear and tear. The laptops clean up nicely if you take care of them and ironically, I believe it still has (or may have just expired) the On-site warranty which can be extended well past 3 years.

What even is a "business laptop" isn't it a fancy word for ultrabooks? Not hating just confused.

just WHY they forcing Yoga instead of Thinkpad Extreme - its best chassis, best keyboard, best design... why they just cant play it like Asus zeph g14/16 i dont understand... Thinkpad should be our macbook on windows, not asus, not dell xps... just WHY? also why they are making non-upgradable RAM? Fine, than give us to choose, like apple maybe we want 64, 128? i am very dissapointed about this all

Another 10nm cpu laptop with 1080 webcam, mediocare 60 hz display. What a Joke it would be even 5 years ago, Intel and lenovo are not years, but soon decades behind.

I have a gen 9 and it's perfect except for the lack of a 16 inch version with the same slim formfactor
