Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (2017) Review

Lenovo’s sleekest ThinkPad is even thinner, lighter, more powerful and more usable than before. The 2017 X1 Carbon upgrades to a 7th Generation “Kaby Lake” processor while shedding some weight and thickness. Throw in a colorful 14-inch screen, dual Thunderbolt 3 ports and over 12 hours of battery life, and you have the best superthin business Ultrabook on the market right now.

The 2017 ThinkPad X1 Carbon, also called the 5th Generation X1 Carbon, is a bit svelter than its predecessor, slimming down from 0.65 to 0.6 inches in thickness and from 2.6 to 2.49 pounds. Unlike most prior ThinkPads, the X1 Carbon is available in both silver and black, rather than just black.
