The Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Nano is next on my list to grab my attention. This is Lenovo’s lightest Thinkpad available and tries to cram as much as possible into a 13” chassis and yet still keep it thin and light. It’s by no means...
Another year, another generation of ThinkPad laptops. Lenovo are quietly launching the 2023 iterations of their premium-tier Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (11th gen) clamshell business notebook and Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga (8th gen) 2-in-1 convertible model. For the most part, the two are hardware...

This is my detailed review of the 2022 Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano Gen 2. Last year, Lenovo unveiled the ThinkPad X1 Nano lineup of ultra-light laptops, and we’ve reviewed the gen1 X1 Nano in this article. I appreciated the sub-1-kilo weight and the ThinkPad...
This is my detailed review of the Lenovo ThinkPad T14s gen 3 lineup. The T14s is the classic 14-inch portable ThinkPad that you’ll find in work/business environments, as has been refined in countless iterations over the last 15 years. At this point, the Thinkpad...
This is our detailed review of the Lenovo ThinkPad Z13 series, a new lineup of premium ultrabooks built on AMD Ryzen hardware and the long consecrated ThinkPad principles. This Z13 is not like most other ThinkPads, though, as it ditches the standard black chassis...
This is our detailed review of the Lenovo ThinkPad Z16 series, a premium full-size laptop built on AMD Ryzen hardware and designed as a multi-purpose work/play companion. This Z16 doesn’t look like the other ThinkPads of the past years, and rather merges some ThinkPad...
This article gathers my first impressions of the 2022-generation Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Fold, the foldable laptop that Lenovo plans to offer in stores by the end of 2022. I’ve spent about an hour with a few pre-release versions of this 2nd generation ThinkPad X1...
I’m going to share with you my thoughts on the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s in this review. I never really got into the ARM processors for Windows before. Sure, they were usually cheaper in cost, but they always seemed to lack compatibility with typical Windows...
Lenovo are introducing a new ThinkPad Z subseries as of the beginning of 2022, a flagship lineup built entirely on modern AMD hardware and exclusive AMD technologies. This is expected in stores around late-Q2, with prices starting at $1500-$2000 between the two available sizes....
For the last years, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme series included some of the best professional multi-purpose laptops on the market, and we’ve covered all generations in our articles and reviews. As of early-2022, Lenovo has updated the X1 Extreme to the latest 5th gen...
Earlier this year, Lenovo announced their first iteration of the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano, an ultra-lightweight laptop with a 16:10 screen, modern specs, and the uncompromised Thinkpad build quality and ergonomics. As a past ThinkPad aficionado myself, I’ve been looking to spend some time...
Disclaimer: All laptops (The ThinkPad X1 Carbon and both the black and white Dell XPS 13 SKUs) were purchased with my own funds for this review. Going by most accounts, the best ultrabook is either the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (which we at NBC...
A new year, a new round of Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon and X1 Yoga business ultraportables. Time sure flies, as the 2022 X1 Carbon is now the 10th iteration in the series. Last year, I was very excited about the 2021 models which introduced...
Last year Lenovo unveiled the ThinkPad X1 Nano, their smallest and lightest member of the ThinkPad X family, and we’ve reviewed it in this detailed article. At under 1 kilo / 2.2 lbs in weight and without sacrificing much on practicality or features, I...

Now that the ThinkBook 13x is out of the way, I can focus my attention on the other laptop Lenovo lent me: the 2021 Thinkpad X1 Carbon. I was very interested in this laptop mainly because of how much I liked the 7th Gen...
For the first time in recent years, I’m truly excited about the updated 2021 ThinkPad X1 Carbon (gen 9) and X1 Yoga (gen 6), as these greatly improve on the previous generations across a couple of different important fields. Lenovo kept to mostly updating...
Lenovo are back at the detachable game with the 2021 Thinkpad X12 Gen 1, a Surface-Pro-style tablet with a keyboard folio accessory, following up on their now-defunct X1 Tablet from a couple of years ago. I’m sure you’re already familiar with the Microsoft Surface...
The ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga could be the most interesting ThinkPad in years, and I’m glad, but also somewhat surprised, that Lenovo even have this now as part of their conservative ThinkPad series. Over the years, I’ve seen countless pleas on Reddit and various...

The ThinkPad X13 and X13 Yoga are the updated 2020 models in the Lenovo ThinkPad X lineup, and direct follow-ups of the ThinkPad X390 and X390 Yoga from 2019. Much like all the other ThinkPad updates scheduled for the first part of this year,...
