The editors didn't like

  • Strangely. For as mighty as the firmware on the trackpad and keyboard are
  • The business-facing software that Lenovo loads onto the X1 is more oppressive than you'll find from other OEMs—even repeat offenders like Asus and Sony. Things like a
  • None that were significant
  • Middling display and battery lifeHigh cost
  • DDR3 1333MHz system memory versus 1600MHz on other machines
  • Pricey
  • No SD card slot
  • New ThinkPad keyboard is awkward to use and will take time to get used to

  • Battery life just average
  • No dock or battery slice
  • Dim Screen
  • Tinny audio

  • LCD panel seems dim and a little washed out
  • Uses new AC adapter format. Only 54GB free space left on SSD. Only one USB 3.0 port
  • No HDMI
  • For such an expensive laptop
  • Battery life is just so-so. Consumer-friendly options such as HDMI are missing
  • The touch screen makes the lid thicker
  • And the touch pad can be finicky at times
  • Mid-pack battery life. Limited I/O ports. Ethernet requires dongle. Sealed battery
  • Short battery life (and you can't swap in a fresh one)
  • Just one USB 3.0
  • One USB 2.0 (and you'll need one for ethernet)
  • Even dropping the higher-resolution touch display doesn't bring the price down
  • And the otherwise excellent keyboard has a couple of head-scratching
  • And typo-inducing

  • Like running Windows Update. Clickpad is merely OK. Puny battery
  • Gets pretty hot
  • No more slice battery option
  • 1600x900 is good ... 1080p would be better
  • Way too much bloatware
  • Gets hot easily
  • Terrible for gaming
  • Gets really hot

  • Average battery life.
  • Only two USB ports

  • Viewing angles aren't as wide as we'd like

  • Abstract:  레노버 씽크패드 X1 카본뿐만 아니라 레노버 씽크패드의 아큐타입 키보드는 편리하죠. 아쉽다면 fn키가 바깥쪽에 있어서 Ctrl키와 헷갈린다는 점입니다. 그러나 BIOS 설정으로 간단히 fn키와 Ctrl키의 기능을 바꿀 수 있습니다. 레노버 씽크패드 X1 카본 전원을 켠 후 엔터키를 누르면 "Startup Interrupt Menu" 가 나옵니다. F1키를 눌러서 BIOS 셋업 페이지로 이동합니다. Config>>Keyboard/Mouse를 선택합니다. ...

  • 씽크패드 X1 카본의 디자인은 지금껏 크게 달라지지 않았다. 2014년 나온 2세대 제품에서 키보드로 색다른 시도를 했지만 거센 반발에 못이겨 3세대에서는 원래대로 돌아왔다. 이 제품에 관심을 가진 사람' 혹은 이미 구입한 사람이 그만큼 보수적인 성향을 가지고 있다는 반증이다. 흔히 이야기하는 것처럼 힙(hip)한 맛은 없지만' 검은색 바탕에 탄소섬유로 만들어 가볍고 단단한 바디는 쉽게 질리지 않는다는 것이 가장 큰 장점이다.가장 큰 단점이었던 기묘한...

  • Abstract:  이번 시간에 소개해 드릴 제품은 레노버가 새롭게 출시한 싱크패드 X1 카본입니다. 싱크패드는 지금까지 전세계 시장에서 1억대 이상 판매되면서 최고의 비즈니스 노트북으로 군림해 오고 있습니다. 2005년 IBM에서 레노버로 인수된 이후에도 싱크패드의 전통과 가치는 큰 변화 없이 유지되었으며 비즈니스 파트 사용자들의 변함 없는 지지를 얻고 있습니다.약 10여년의 시간이 지나면서 싱크패드 특유의 7열 키보드는 일반적인 6열 배열로 바뀌었고 두툼한 키보드 캡 ...

  • Abstract:  IT동아 이문규 기자] 본 리뷰어는 십수 년 전 서버/네트워크 엔지니어로 10여 년간 근무한 이력이 있다. 당시에도 하드웨어/소프트웨어 엔지니어들은 지금처럼 노트북을 휴대하고 이 사이트, 저 사이트 돌며 지원 업무를 해야 했다. 1990년 대 말 혹은 2000년 초 이들 IT전문가들이 선호하는 업무용 노트북의 최고봉은 누가 뭐래도 '씽크패드(ThinkPad)'였다. 당시에는 IBM이 생산, 판매했던 씽크패드는 그 이전부터 '비즈니스맨을 위한 최고의 노...

  • Abstract:  항공기 소재로 사용된다는 탄소 섬유 카본 레노버에서 카본으로 만든 14인치 울트라북을 내놓았죠. 특징을 살려서 이름이 레노버 씽크패드 X1 카본. 인터넷에서 사진으로만 보다가 직접 보니 F1 경주에 나오는 머신을 보는 듯 단단한 모습이 인상적입니다. 불과 며칠 사용해 보았지만 개인적으로 느꼈던 X1 카본 특징 몇 가지를 말씀드립니다. X1 카본의 특징으로 제일 먼저 언급하고 싶은 것은 디자인입니다. X1 카본의 멋진 모습을 사진으로 제대로 담지 못하...
