Here it is! My favourite laptop from Lenovo! Love this thing. Just wish heat was a bit better! Hit me up on discord if you have any questions! discord.gg/mattmoniz
the gen 2 is over$2400 at present, while this one is "only" $1,299". For my purposes, this one is great! I'm doing light content creation, lots of writing and must have a 15" screen. I watch the X1 Carbon videos and have test-typed them in the store and can't stand how small they are. I don't need a light laptop, if it's going on a desk or table most of the time.
I'm so glad they keep the nipple, I remember when I used it first on a my dads friends thinkpad still from IBM at that time, it had a 800mb hdd (which was huuuuuge at the time, it was quite a while ago!) I immediately loved it, and I still prefer it over touchpads even though touchpads have become so much better, while the nipple is still basically the same from over 20years ago and still great!
0:59 nit-pick: it transforms power in Watt and is not storing energy in Watt hours. Otherwise very good information in a well presented condensed form. Thanks 👍
Does this model have a sensor to automatically control the keyboard back lighting? I hate that on the X1 Carbon 6th Gen, you have to manually turn on the keyboard lighting every time when waking from sleep.
It would be perfect if it uses 3:2 ratio screen instead which can make the whole machine in smaller width and hence has narrower bezels of both sides of the keyboard.
It looks like the designers of the XPS15 Core I9 share the same bed with the X1 Xtreme designers when it comes to heat management. I am a developer and it just makes me worried if I spend the big bucks (over $3000 Australian dollars for the 16 GB Ram spec'ed out models.), I get issues with the performance and longevity of the laptop.
so i got this laptop but for some reason i can't open the smart card reader there this piece or tray inside it that won't come out. is there sth I'm doing wrong
I follow your advice Matt and went with this one, got a nice discount, $2,459 for the i7 8850h, 32gb ram, 1tb ssd and 1050ti. I think is a great buy over the XPS15, lets see when it arrives. cant wait!!
I was wondering if, when the laptop is being used while it is plugged in and the battery was full, does the laptop run directly off of the charger, and the battery is not used, or does the laptop run off of the battery, and the charger just replenishes the battery as it is used?
I thought this was my favorite laptop, too, so I purchased one. Then I made the mistake of looking at BIOS settings and changed graphics settings from "Hybrid" to "Discrete" and rebooted. Now, I'm looking for a new laptop.
@@wolffpv535 Changed BIOS settings for graphics from "Hybrid" to "Discrete" and rebooted my laptop. The laptop rebooted, like every other BIOS setting change I've done pretty much for the last 20 years. Except this time, the laptop had no display. Just a black screen. No cursor. No BIOS screen, no POST. Nothing. Tried HDMI cable. Tried pushing the laptop's BIOS reset (from manual, plus when tech support whom I called for my less than 24-hour old laptop) for 20+ seconds. Nothing helped. Tech support's solution? Ship laptop back to Lenovo certified service center to have the motherboard replaced. Nope, no thanks. I'll take a refund, thank you very much, and buy a laptop where a BIOS change doesn't brick the laptop. But hey, I'm not the only one, so don't take my word for it: forums.lenovo.com/t5/ThinkPad-X-Series-Laptops/Thinkpad-X1-Extreme-Black-Screen-Help/td-p/4286292 I'd recommend you not make the change in your BIOS, though.
So judging from your statement at 5:43 you deem the Blade 15's thermal management / cooling power superior for longer load spans? Since most people are already calling the Blade 15 "a bit toasty". In terms of keyboard, can the Blade compare - in any way?
@@MatthewMoniz Thank you for the instantaneous answer! I'm a bit sad that they reduced the battery cap to 60 Wh for the 2.5" slot on the recent Blade 15 model with ethernet jack.
I'm really wondering how the rubberized finishe will hold up over time and if it will get sticky after 2-3 years. Is this the same finish as past Thinkpads had? Is there some long term experience with the finish?
I have seen 8 videos about this laptop and none have heating problems. I think you are exaggerating or you are doing something wrong, in any case it can only be your unit that has problems.
Waiting for the notch city comparison between PIXEL 3XL and IPHONE XS MAX And the camera comparison between pixel 3xl, iPhone XS MAX and galaxy note 9.
Its not clear about thermo throttling...this laptop runs i5 to i9 the p1 runs up to a xeon processor...the i5 is a really impressive machine although the top cpu will get hot
Hey, Question, I’m currently in China and need a new laptop. Is there anyway to check and know if I’m getting exactly what is told or advertised to be in the PC while I’m still in store? Because I’ve already ran into one that didn’t have the correct stuff. Thanks,
I have this laptop and you don't get more than 4 hours eith everything turned off and on minimum brightness. The audio quality from the down firing speakers are muddy and you don't get a clean audio source. Just my 2c
Good morning, I have an Ideapad 720s and the fan noise is terrible. The fan kicks in at 40 degree celsius (105 fahrenheit). Even when browsing or watching TH-cam the fan ramps up to full speed for 10 seconds before turning off completely for another 10 seconds. This repeats ad infinitum. Im not the only one who has this problem but Lenovo hasnt offered a fix in a year now. Really disappointed because it is an otherwise great laptop.
According the last generation before which is y520 (45 mwh) it has more battery (54 mwh) and last 1 hour longer (4-5 hour) than previous generation (previous generation about 3 hr max when use)
Hey Mathew, mathieu here. Can you comment on on fan noise when doing regular task like browsing internet and watching videos, are you able to keep the fan fully turned off or does it always make a little noise like the xps15?
Love your laptop videos also man. Even though phones are more interesting to most people, I'm glad I can always come to you when I'm looking to buy a laptop!
I had absolutely awful experiences with the XPS 9570. It took two units exchanged before I got one that didn't have a ton of major issues and then I had a fan bearing go caput within a month. I bought an X1 Extreme based on the few early reviews and so far the quality control is on a whole other level. I don't have any backlight bleed, the keyboard is amazing, the system is silent during most of my work and much quieter while gaming than the XPS was - not that I game that much. Excellent inputs too. I wish the display was a bit brighter however. ThinkPads are certainly an acquired taste in terms of aesthetic. Overall very happy with it though - it feels as premium as the MacBook Pro does (different style of course) which is no small feat. There are always compromises when you want a notebook to do it all but they nailed it pretty well. In any case I'm happy to see more companies trying at this segment because it wasn't too long ago I was stuck with the 15" MacBook Pro because they were the only ones on the block!
I had the 4k with i7. Performance was always great and I still think it would be my favorite laptop if Dell could just sort out the little things on the software and hardware side. When paying 2gs I expect as close to perfect a device as possible you know? I don't know if you noticed it in your review of the X1E but did you notice the somewhat odd fan behavior while gaming? It seems like it doesn't crank the fan up as much as it will when just putting on a CPU load. Not an issue in practice but weird all the same.
Hi. Are you facing any overheating issues of the laptop. Is there thermal throttling while doing the simple work like excel or watching videos on TH-cam ?
Thanks for commenting on the noise level. I don't know why I have to go through 10 reviews and nobody comments on the noise level. The only way is to buy and return it if the noise drives you crazy (which is common in these powerful notebooks). For people that use these for business or require concentration, noise level is very important. You don't want to walk into a meeting and get everybody distracted.
Hi, I recently bought a X1 extreme with core i7 processor, 16 gb ram and 4k display. I feel the computer is very sluggish. Is there anything to do with the 4k display or it’s probably just a defective unit?
What's the 16 GB memory stick of choice for the X1 Extreme. Wanting to upgrade my machine to 32 GB, I know it comes with a 16 GB DDR4 2666MHz, but what's the best to buy. I know the Samsung SSDs are the best to buy, and then maybe the WD black after that. But what about the memory,... what's the best of the many 16 GB DDR4 2666MHz choices out there? Thanks!
This is an excellent machine, but considering its slightly thicker than the XPS 15, I'd like to see better cooling. Of course, it still cools better than the MacBook Pro any day.

hi matt! just wanted to know if you could tell me if it will help with thermals if i get 16gb 1080p for this. not a content creator or anything, but looking for a laptop for business and programming softwares.... wanted a laptop that a graphic card :) hope you could tell me more !
No....I haven't notice any screen bend. It feels really durable. The screen is actually thicker than I expected looking at it now!! Great laptob!! Review is on point!! Apart from the heat, it feels and works excellent. I've had it for about 2 weeks!!
Thanks the the great review! Quick question... Is there a limit on how much TB's i can add on each m.2 slot? I want to add two 2TB SSD making it a total of 4TB. Lenovo says each slot can handle a max of 1TB so a total of 2TB, is that correct? I wasn't aware that there is a storage limitation...
Thanks for the quick reply.. I was not aware that there are such limitations. I understand that that's the max that is offered by the Lenovo store but I didn't know it was an actual limitation. I was looking into installing 2 of those baby's www.amazon.com/Samsung-970-EVO-2TB-MZ-V7E2T0BW/dp/B07C8Y31G1/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1540380104&sr=1-5&keywords=samsung+evo+2tb+ssd Do you happen to know what's the limitation from? is it from the processor or the chip set?
