With those components, one should expect this machine to perform well. And it can be configured with up to 64 GB of RAM if need be. The review unit ships with a hexa-core Intel Core i7-8750H processor, the first 6-core chipset I’d ever experienced, an incredible 32 GB of RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti dedicated graphics with 4 GB of RAM, and a speedy 1 TB PCIe-NVME OPAL2.0 M.2 SSD. So I don’t feel that the lack of a 3:2 panel is particularly bad. At 15.6-inches, however, a wider aspect ratio starts to make sense, since you can more easily view two applications side-by-side. Which brings me to an interesting point: I’ve been pushing the need for 3:2 displays in laptops for the past few years, and I generally knock a few points off of a laptop’s grade when such a display is not present. And the bottom bezel is about an inch tall, in keeping with the 16:9 aspect ratio of the display. But Lenovo at least kept the webcam (and Windows Hello sensors) at the top of the display. This gorgeous display is wrapped inside very small bezels, in keeping with modern laptop design guidelines.

But there’s a matte 1080p option for those with more pedestrian needs and smaller wallets. As such it is ideal for entertainment purposes like watching movies and playing video games.

The ThinkPad X1 Extreme review unit is outfitted with one of the best portable PC displays I’ve ever used. And of course there is the vaunted ThinkPad dual-pointing system with its red-capped Trackpoint nubbin. The angled ThinkPad logos on both the display lid and keyboard deck are blacked out and feature red “proof of life” lights for the dot on the “i.” The X1 logo on the keyboard deck is of the more subtle and modern variety. There are smaller familial touches as well.

But this is an acceptable trade-off, I think, for the other benefits of this material. OK, there is one downside to the carbon fiber: It does attract palm smudges on the keyboard decking and, to a lesser degree, on the keyboard keys and touchpad, which are both made from different materials. The ideal materials, in other words, for a business-class PC.

So you’ll find the familiar carbon fiber composite shell, which manages to be durable, professional looking and attractive, and comfortable, thanks to its soft-touch finish. It’s just bigger, thanks to its 15-inch display and slightly-thicker form factor. DesignĪesthetically, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme looks and feels exactly like the now-lesser members of the X1 family. And then there’s the ThinkPad X1 Extreme, which amps up everything to 11 and provides the perfect middle ground between a portable gaming machine and workstation. Lenovo’s vaunted ThinkPad X1 lineup has always a top choice for anyone looking for the ideal business-class portable PC.
