With the proper brightness and performance settings, you should be able to get around 15 hours on a single full charge. The battery life, while isn't at the Asus ExpertBook B9450 levels, is certainly long-lasting. Thermals aren't its strong suit, which may result in warmer temperatures that are a bit uncomfortable to touch while typing and throttled speeds under heavy loads. One downside of this laptop lineup is the heat dissipation. Not all variants feature a powerful GPU - in fact, they all are integrated graphics solutions, but the more expensive ones arrive with the faster Intel Iris Xe chips, which should offer smoother system speeds with graphics-intensive tasks. Coupled with 8GB, 16GB or 32GB RAM options, the laptop can be purchased with internal SSD storage from 180GB to 1TB, enabling the user to locally store plenty of data on the go. This is a solid spectrum of CPUs that deliver a swift performance. The processor options for the laptop range from the Intel Core i5-1135G7 all the way up to the i7-4600U.

Additionally, it utilises faster Wi-Fi and Bluetooth standards akin to the MacBook Air 15' 2023 M2 to ensure stable connections for all tasks. Regarding connectivity, this laptop lineup includes a variety of ports including Thunderbolt 3, HDMI, and USB 3.1, as well as an SD card reader - you just need to pick the right configuration that has the ports you need. All the resolution options, except for the 900p one, should enhance your viewing experience with their crisp visuals and vibrant colours. The 14-inch display comes in a range of resolution options: 900p, 1200p and 1440p. The ergonomic keyboard, renowned for its relaxed typing experience, compliments the overall design aesthetic.

It's just that the Gen 11 model still can't quite manage to feel like an across-the-board upgrade from the Gen 9 X1 Carbon from two years ago.1 x USB 2.0, 1 x USB 3.0, Headphone 3.5mm Jack, Microphone 3.5mm Jackīuilt-in Microphone, Multi-Gesture / Multitouch Touchpad, Stereo Speakers, Webcam, Card Reader

It's an acceptable sacrifice for improved battery life, and the X1 Carbon is still one of the best all-around portable laptops you can buy. That means the performance gains from last year are negligible (and sometimes even a small step backward). This year's Gen 11 X1 Carbon refresh mainly has one job: retain all the good stuff about last year's refresh and the X1 Carbon lineup generally but get the battery life closer to where it was before. (Yes, before we get any further, Lenovo's ThinkPad generational designations don't align with Intel's processor designation, so a Gen 10 ThinkPad uses a 12th-gen Intel CPU, and the Gen 11 ThinkPad uses a 13th-gen CPU.) Last year's Gen 10 iteration had a major flaw, though-a big step down in battery life, at least partially attributable to a more power-hungry 12th-generation Intel processor. Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Carbon has long been one of our favorite ultrabook designs, combining a generous array of ports, a nice keyboard and trackpad, and a larger-than-typical 14-inch screen into a thin-and-light package.
