Heavy, Expensive, Battery life could be better
There are very few laptops we'd class as being a joy to review, but the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme was a delightful distraction from typical by-the-Intel-numbers hardware.It's got the performance and spec to replace most desktop systems, and probably a fe...
The P1 remains my overall favourite laptop to date, and it will hopefully only improve as better software and firmware address the GPU/battery drain bugs. You aren't going to find a laptop with better build quality, input, I/O, and overall performance any...

Superb display, Fast CPU performance, Lots of business tools
Basic GPU, Middling battery life, Expensive
Few laptops can cost this much and still feel worth it, but the ThinkPad X1 Extreme is no ordinary laptop. From performance to the keyboard, from connectivity to the display, it succeeds at almost every turn, and business buyers in particular can take...
Fan noise can be bothersome, High-end spec is very expensive
There's a lot to like about the ThinkPad X1 Extreme, yet as a fan of the ThinkPad X1 Carbon, I'm conflicted on how I feel about Lenovo's souped-up sibling.You might assume that a larger display and beefier specifications would result in a superior ove...

The X1 Extreme is a very well rounded product. It merges fundamentals of the ThinkPad line, like the solid craftsmanship, the clean aesthetics, the fast keyboard and the proper IO, with powerful hardware, a compelling cooling solution that keeps the hardw...

Powerful specs, Multiple display support
No full-sized network port
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme is a great addition to Lenovo's exceptional ThinkPad series, bringing workstation-class performance and gaming into one slim and lightweight body...
Abstract: The ThinkPad X1 Extreme isn't the first Lenovo with discrete graphics or even the first mainstream ThinkPad with it: the 15-inch Yoga 720 launched with an Nvidia GTX 1050 option and the T series has had an option for Nvidia's mobile graphics solution, the...
Relatively fast, yet light at 4 lbs, Upgrades options galore
Painfully expensive, 4K battery life is average at best
Overall, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme is an impressive laptop, but is it a Dell XPS 15 killer? That depends. On the performance front, it tracks closely. But where it really shines is weight. While you may scoff at an 8-ounce difference (when similarly configu...
