When it comes to peak productivity, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Gen 10) continues its reign atop the mountain of business laptops. There are some decent performance and hardware gains over the mighty ninth generation that are sure to make this a zippy Those improvements do come at a cost, such as a drop in battery life and increased heat. Not only that, but we’ve seen a slight slowdown in SSD speed, and thanks to sticking rigidly to its utilitarian frame of its predecessor, the touchpad feels a little cramped. But while there are certainly some solid business alternatives if that’s the category you’re committed to, such as the HP Elite Dragonfly G3 (if you want that longer stamina), the X1 Carbon continues to be at the pinnacle for workers on the go.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
