ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 Intel (14ʺ)
So far this laptop has handled everything we’ve thrown at it. The carrier is providing a good 5G signal and upload speeds approached 4mbs in green park at Sebring during the 12 hours.
The 14" ThinkPad X1 Carbon is lightweight! It weighs less the 4 lbs. (1.8kg). I can hold it in one hand while aiming the camera with the other. The ThinkPad seems sturdy, the keyboard is perfect silky smooth touch and it is a full keyboard except no number pad but otherwise laid out like a normal full size keyboard. The left and right buttons are at the top of the finger pad which I’ll have to get used to but I feel like I haven’t figured out how they work yet. And the ThinkPad has the funny little red button in the middle of the keyboard, which is actually useful.
