Reviews for the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon W7P64
Source: PC Authority
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 Ultrabook: the X1 Carbon. There are minor niggles, but with the usual ThinkPad quality now matched with excellent performance and a modicum of style, the X1 Carbon seizes a deserved place on the A-List.
