I think the upgrades are also discounted. Free shipping as well.
done and thanks!
Out of my budget but I can feel (rich) people will buy this without thinking. Specs are amazing
Lenovo laptops are quite cheap through business portals.
How cheap for X1E?
we get around 25-40% off with our account
Typing this comment on my 1st gen X1 Extreme right now. Easily the best laptop I've used. Now I feel rich :)
sorry scotty. you didn't make it to the rich list. hidden print state it applies to gen 2 only.
Damn it. I know there's a catch when I scooped up that gen 1 at discounted price.
Typing this comment on my 2nd gen X1 Extreme right now (with 4k screen upgrade). Easily the best laptop I've used. Now I feel… ecstatic.
I'm sorry, what is your point?
8gb of ram is embarrassing for this price just like my MacBook
Yep that's the only weird spec in this laptop.. otherwise looks amazing for the price
Best bit is its user upgradable. Buy yourself a $50 8gb stick and you should have 16gb
The 16GB model comes with IR camera as well for only ~$190 more. If you're gonna spend this much on a laptop, I'd want the 16GB.
$2000 with FHD no torch, 256GB SSD. Only if the CPU worth $1000
I really can't see the value out of this machine.
X1 carbon is good enough
doesn't the carbon cost almost the same? and that doesn't have the same processor and graphics as this one.
I think Carbon is around $1600 - $1700. Cheapest on here is around $1300.
is that the 7th gen?
Really? From where and what gen is it? I f you know that is haha.
The carbon is smaller, and as such has weaker processors. It comes with a 4 cores as opposed to the 6 cores in the extreme and uses the iGPU provided by intel. Also ram is not user upgradable.
I didn't realise the RAM was user upgradeble in this one. That is good.
Got my 7th gen X1C i7 8565U/1080p 400nit/16gb RAM/512gb SSD/4G for 2300. 10 hour battery life, havent even heard the fan turn on once (undervolted). Laptop also charges from my power bank.
I'd get an x1 extreme only if i needed a bigger display or dedicated graphics.
one can argue you can get more specs for the same price with the x1e gen 2. you sacrifice portability though.
@flipden: The portability/battery life was the decision maker for me, I actually did price up an X1E gen 2 when I was researching. Couldn't be happier the the carbon, got a dbrand skin on it and it looks amazing!
How's the dedicated GFX card? Haven't read much about it…
What's the weight of this laptop?
Weight
Non-touch: starting at 1.7 kg
Multi-touch: starting at 1.81 kg
Wow, that's very light.
No one cares about its warranty?
It's one year only. I prefer a X1 carbon with 3-year-peace-of-mind
You may configure the warranty between 1 and 5 years on the page after customising hardware. Same goes for the X1 Carbon G7 - it is also configured with 1 year warranty as standard.
Hmm, I am using a Thinkpad T420. In my old memory the standard warranty of T and X series is 3 years.
I bought a x1 yoga in 2016 and that had minimum 1 year warranty. -20 series was almost a decade ago!
Does this ONLY have the dedicated graphics? Does it not have any intergrated? Just asking as there would be plenty of times I don't activly need a power hungry dGPU, and using intergrated graphics would be great to save on power usage.
I can't seem to find anyone mentioning integrated graphics.
All the Intel mobile CPUs would have integrated graphics, and switching to NVIDIA with Optimus when needed. Accord to Intel Ark, i7-9750H has UHD Graphics 630.
