1440p IPS screen, Strong and mobile, Overall comfortable to use, Fast Wi-Fi
No built-in SD card slot, New features could require a user adjustment period, SSD not as quick as we expected
The new version of Lenovo's X1 Carbon Ultrabook offers some physical changes that can take a while to get used to. And while it's a strong and well performing notebook overall, with a useful 1440p, IPS screen, we can't help but feel like it might alienate...

The betterthanHD touch display on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon looks great, the new row of adaptive function keys is clever, and the keyboard and touch pad remain bestinclass examples.
Even dropping the higherresolution touch display doesn't bring the price down, and the otherwise excellent keyboard has a couple of headscratching, and typoinducing, changes to the standard layout
The third version of Lenovo's ultralight 14-inch laptop, the X1 Carbon, gets nearly all the basics right while adding a few new twists, including a function key row that changes app by app....
Admittedly, it's tough not to look at the ThinkPad X1 Carbon not get a little giddy. This ultrabook is a beauty that should also be more than capable of handling most business-level tasks with ease. That Adaptive Keyboard is certainly interesting; it bri...

Clean and thin design, great touchscreen, fantastic keyboard, HSPAincluded
Small amount of bloatware, touchpad unresponsive at times, viewing angles
A perfect Ultrabook for those looking for performance but still want to keep weight and size down.
Excellent keyboard, Screen isn't overly reflective, Feels solidy built and isn't too heavy
Touchpad a little too sensitive, Screen angles aren't great, Pro version of Windows 8 isn't standard
The addition of a touchscreen gives the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon more versatility when you're using Windows 8. It remains one of the best Ultrabooks on the market due to its overall build quality and an excellent keyboard...
Very thin and light for a 14in Ultrabook, Excellent keyboard
Only one port is USB 3.0, Ethernet is via a USB dongle
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is an Ultrabook with a robust, carbon fibre-based body that's designed for business users. It's 14 inches, but it's still very thin and light and it felt great to use in our brief hands-on session...

Abstract: Lenovo's 2011 vision of the ultimate boardroom ultraportable, the ThinkPad X1, simply didn't live up to expectations. Now, however, the company has gone back to the drawing board and attempted to right the wrongs of its predecessor.Enter Lenovo's business...

Lenovo takes its solid 14-inch ThinkPad X1 Carbon and upgrades it with Windows 8 and a touch screen, while keeping the excellent keyboard
The touch screen makes the lid thicker, and the touch pad can be finicky at times
The business-oriented Lenovo ThinkPad X1 adds must-have features for 2013, and remains a very impressive business-oriented ultrabook with strong crossover appeal....
Incredibly light for a 14-inch laptop, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is ruggedly built, and has a better keyboard than any ultrabook-style laptop, even Apple's MacBook Air
For such an expensive laptop, battery life is just so-so. Consumer-friendly options such as HDMI are missing
Lenovo's succeeded in delivering a sexy ultrabook that still retains the traditional ThinkPad design cues. The battery life isn't as good as it could be though, and the SSD upgrade prices are simply ludicrous....
