Thin and Light Powerhouse Laptop! | Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Review

[@northy179]

I've watched about 10 other videos so far on this laptop and this is the first to answer a lot of the actual questions I had, so thank you for giving it a proper review and not just a quick read of the spec sheet.

[@BoYoKaKo]

agreed - what a great review - this channel deserves MANY more subs.....

[@rae6261]

Agreed

[@davidarchangels6500]

So this x1 extreme or P1...?

[@beck320]

So this is one of the best laptop reviews I've seen! Def would watch more like this

[@elinpelin17]

Mine came with the Samsung SSD. It's lightning fast on boot up, but I cleaned installed Win10 on arrival and upgraded all firmware(s) and there are a few. I also compared the built quality to other 15 inch laptops including Dell XPS and the X1 is by far the best more solid computer. Once you have it everything else looks flimsy. And thanks for the review.

[@youngbloodbuilt]

I have been looking for well made reviews on this laptop that cover all the bases and this is by far the most thoughtful I have seen, thank you!

[@retrodonut1185]

I'm just happy they still include the little red nub mouse.

[@retrodonut1185]

@@voltare2amstereo back in the day I used to play og Starcraft with one of those nubs.

[@Montisaquadeis]

The trackpoint is the only input I will use on a thinkpad besides a real mouse. AKA I disable the trackpad in BIOS/UEFI and leave it permanently off. At least I did when I had the Thinkp[ad T420 for about a year.

[@Calebmepapi]

When will they update this like the new carbon 😓😓😓

[@imacomputer101]

What a nub....jk...It just seems like more work to use the nub and it's not as precise. I enjoy the smoothness and precision of a good glass touchpad. I don't know...maybe I need to try the new one.

[@matthewe293]

I hope it never goes away, just brings you back to the 90s

Anyone else notice the "thicc" notepad @6:33

[@MattVoran]

How do you not have more subs!? A real review here people.

[@bd1a210]

One of the best reviews of this machine, hope to see an updated review on the gen 2 model

[@AtliJarlMartin]

As a W- and later P-series user exclusively, I've been running the P1 Gen1 as my main mobile machine as a compliment to my P70 and P51, your review is excellent! I just got the new X1X Gen3 a couple of weeks ago, and it is phenomenal! The biggest difference between it and the P1 Gen1 is the new 4k display, which I can safely say is one of the best displays I've had on a ThinkPad. My P70 has the 4k non-touch, but it's not got any of the bells and whistles the X1X 4k display has.

[@Poire33]

9:00 That dual laptop view is so cool! It looks like they're friends hugging each other!

[@KnarfSondiers]

Best review of this laptop on KZbin! Thank you!

[@andresvargas7450]

Thanks for the small details, those really matter. Just learned something new today

[@zusurs]

I agree that X1 is one of the best laptops out there. What I wanted to add, though, is that I believe that this kind of approach to advertising is the best - send famous youtuber device for free, no obligations, and be sure, that you will get both genuinely good review AND people are even more impressed that brand gave it away with no obligations. Hats off to Lenovo marketing department.

[@Calebmepapi]

When will they update this like the new carbon 😓😓😓

[@ShinShinoke]

@@Calebmepapi What update is that?

[@Calebmepapi]

ShinShinoke the sixth gen carbon just came out the new x1 extreme will be coming this summer, hopefully with front facing speakers and improved processing and heating and cooling systems

[@TheRetroFuture]

Super clean review! Love the aesthetic. Love the laptop. Would love to see some more IBM refurb stuff!

Ironically, 2 years ago I found TDNC and after that I found your channel.

[@TheRetroFuture]

@@RandomInnVGMs ah thanks!

[@mikej7476]

A tip for those (like myself) that HATE fingerprints all over your laptops. Buy laminate SHEETS! They come in packs with multiple size choices. I ALWAYS laminate my laptops and the fingerprint issue is never a problem again. I even laminated the graphite surface on my XPS 15 around my keyboard and besides solving that horrible fingerprint issue on graphite, it looks like I spray painted a clear coat on it because it is so shiny looking, it always looks new. P.S.... I know everything about metals and graphite and there abilities to dissipate heat. There is NO heating problems so you don't have to worry about that.

[@cluster-bom]

That 3 second pause and stare...... Priceless....

[@jeffharro1]

This guy deserves way more subscribers.

[@EpicHardware]

3:36 you are wrong! the intel ssd is not slower, it has much faster 4k speeds, typical workload benefit from that not from the maximum speed

[@Tigerex966]

best review so far of the extreme

[@hullahupp]

Unfortunately nobody is testing the operation with a thunderbolt dock and an external display when internal display is closed (because it is below the desk on an office container), if there is a heat / noise / durability problem because of the covert back outgoing ventilation slot. Would you mind analyse this topic in your next review of Lenovo Extreme Gen. 2? Thanks for your great videos!

[@starwars1022]

I use mine like this all the time, works perfectly (but this is the newest model from now)

[@igorzkoppt]

And unlike many others, you can actually open it and do maintenance, change the battery etc. I simply can't even consider buying a disposable 'black box', and reviews should take account of this in their evaluation.

[@Tigerex966]

yes

[@MaZEEZaM]

Great review, pretty awesome that they gave it to you.

[@johnemory7485]

Did they fix the trackpad? I went through and returned three Thinkpad X1 Carbons last year because the trackpads were unusable. There was delay, deadzone, and drift, like most windows laptops i've used in the last few years. I also found the nipple mouse was less responsive than the Thinkpad I used in 2006, do you find similar issue? I bought a mac, again, despite the keyboard issues, for the first time since 2002 after I decided to stop fighting windows trackpads. Chromebooks work well enough for me, they have spectacular trackpads, but I need to be able to run an IDE. ChromeOS native just isn't there, and Crostini doesn't have solid USB passthrough, yet. Hence the need for a full featured OS on bare metal. There don't seem to be any good solutions on the market, today.

[@samuelmurillo2244]

Thank you John for posting your REAL experience. There are so many Thinkpad fanboys (especially on Reddit) that try to hide problems about Thinkpads in order to make it look like the "Perfect" laptop. Those same Thinkpad fanboys trash Apple's machines and never speak negatively about Thinkpads. When someone speaks up (like you) and tells about their REAL experience the ThinkPad fanboys downvote them and attack the complainer.

[@rokero171]

That shot of the fan at 5:43 for me is enough to proof that this is one well built machine, Amphenol connectors aren't cheap, and if this is the level of components quality that this laptop have, should last forever, like IBM thinkpads.

[@FinoMarg]

X1 extreme gen2 has been relaesed hope u review soon

[@beyornd-two]

Excellent review, thank you! Gonna get this badboy :)

[@hawkeye454]

Fantastic laptop! All of my Thinkpads are 5+ years old, perhaps one day I'll be able to get one of these epic X1 Carbon models.

[@The-Cat]

But this isnt the Carbon it's the X1 Extreme :p

[@ShiggitayMediaProductions]

Great video and LOL at the outtake at the end. XD

[@mikemetcalf2573]

Great video! I would love a X1 Extreme gen 2 review! (:

[@The-Cat]

Lol I just bought one yesterday and OMG touching that material for the first time my reaction was "Oh dang that feels good" Coming from an HP ZBook 15 (2017 model) I got from work I'll sure as hell be using my own Thinkpad instead! The Zbook got a great keyboard ( or perhaps i've gotten used to it) but the Thinkpad oh dang people arent kidding when they say it's the best. I prefer mechanical keyboards but this non-mechanical on a thin and light is so awesome. just wish the backlight was just a tad more brighter but it's no dealbreaker. I'm a software engineer so the keyboard is high priority on my list of demands. Just need to switch the Fn and Ctrl in BIOS settings back to the position I'm used to instead of this ThinkPad traditional reversed way. I've taken this Thinkpad on my lap in bed and yea I notice the fans a bit of a sound that i got to get used to but when I place the laptop on a flat surface the fans sound way better. Theres a certain sound frequency difference that i can distingish (sensitive ears most people wont notice what I can hear) still no dealbreaker though as it isnt constant or annoying. It's my first Thinkpad ever so I'm not a red-nipple user however I like it way better than the black-nippe I've got on my HP ZBook ( that thing even broke off on the Zbook I dont know how.... ) the red-nipple on the Thinkpad is even rubberized so theres a good grip on it it feels great! the trackpad is precise and smooth no complaints. The image quality o my 4K panel here is gorgious and colors are really amazing without being over-saturated, brightness is better than what I came from so no complaints I even think its too bright at 100% if I didnt have dark mode on everything. The fingerprint reader works really well it's not like the ZBook (swipe finger) This one is place your finger and you're done, I think it works in combination of face recignition i'm not really sure but I have found no probs with it and in fact I now loathe having to enter a pin or password on my Zbook lol ( for some reason the swipe-fingerprint reader wont work anymore on the HP) in 2 days from now i'll be taking this baby to work and see how the wifi + bluetooth holds up. My HP ZBook sometimes looses bluetooth signal to my MX Master mouse due too all the other bluetooth and wifi signals in the air. So i'm hoping the ThinkPad has a better antenna strength or placement so that i wont have to reconnect my mouse everytime throughout the day. If I encounter any issues with my bluetooth signal i'll be sure to update this comment. The NVME SSD is QUICK! and My Laptop didnt come with a bunch of Lenovo bloatware, just Windows Pro bloatware. My unit is European, just mentioning it incase theres a regional difference I know pricewise theres a huge regional difference I dropped more money on this laptop than I ever did on any of the custom desktop PC's i've built in my life but theres no regrets yet. It's a thinkpad and it's meant to last longer than an average flashy fashion gadget (I'm looking at you iFruit folks). Eventhough it's no flashy laptop. Overall I love the look and feel of it. It's very low profile yet it screams " I MEAN BUSINESS!!! " the red led on the lid says it's a Thinkpad while the embosed THINKPAD branding is black and very low profile. I prefer it way more than the old white/silver/grey logo. However It would of been a nice touch if they could make it pulse on and off softly or even turned off completely as an option. Just my lil two cents on that. Anyway my little user-review first-impression that nobody asked for all written up in a coment section few people would care to read or thumbs up. lol But for the careful consumers out there I hope there's some use out of it. Cheers !!!!!!!!! SIDENOTE: If I dont update this comment or reply to my own comment about the bluetooth then assume that it is functioning properly in a very bluetooth/wifi congested environment. (man this keyboard just lets me type on-and on absolutely fantastic)

[@elinpelin17]

" just wish the backlight was just a tad more brighter " Have you noticed that the backlight of the keyboard has two levels and I personally never use the second level, it's too bright in my experience.

[@The-Cat]

@@elinpelin17 Thank you :D I actually already set it at it's highest but i'm just being "picky" about it because I'm more used to the ZBook having a brighter backlight due to the keys being thinner. The Thinkpads backlight does the job good enough so it's all good :D

Nice review! Subbed!🔥

Good video. Watching on a ThinkPad W540.

[@XenonG]

This "X1 Extreme" shares chassis and parts with the Thinkpad P1.

[@davidarchangels6500]

Which would u buy honestly...?

[@XenonG]

@@davidarchangels6500 P1 if you can get the top bin Workstation GPUs, but for most regions only with X1. After looking what they did with the new Gen 4... Better off with the Legion 5 AMD/Intel, yes the Legion 7 has issues that make the cheaper 5 series a better buy. Not as great screen choices though unless you go with the 5 Pro.

[@yeshwantkethineni3694]

Hey I love your channel but please upload the video in actual 21:9 (no hardcoded black bars) if over 90% of the video is in 21:9

[@zusurs]

Yeshwant Kethineni I second this. Would make it much nicer to watch on widescreen phone without the need to manually enable forced fullscreen. We are missing native 21:9 content so much!

[@surrodox]

@@zusurs But 21:9 video on a 16:9 screen looks ugly with big bars on it

[@yeshwantkethineni3694]

surrodox2001 Then have a completely 16:9 video. Or even a 18:9 video. Just don't have hardcoded black bars if over 90% of the video is ultrawidescreen anyways. KZbin's theater view accomodates for wider videos; by hardcoding black bars you waste data and shrink the image. Same for phones

[@TheRetroFuture]

I liked it.

[@eiffe]

Get a Thinkpad to watch this video natively 😂

[@medleysa]

Undervolt the CPU and performance goes up significantly. Temps go down, performance is more stable, and multi-core benchmarks shoot way up. Same with the Dell XPS 15. Solid machine all around.

[@Calebmepapi]

When will they update this like the new carbon 😓😓😓

[@SenpaiSilver]

I'm one of those weird people that love having buttons on the top of the touchpad, I used to have an Elitebook.

[@mr.skeltal8687]

This aspect ratio is wack i can barely see the top of your head lmao

[@conheo4]

[@eiffe]

he probably rendered the video on the X1 😂

Yeah... Why is the video ratio still 16:9 when the shown footage is 21:9 & KZbin didn't trim the vid? Why?

[@nathanmead140]

@ because youtube likes the old 16:9 screens (i like them better too)

[@KingZu555]

@ if you look around 4:00 you can see hes using different aspect ratios throughout the video

[@richardgilmore5607]

I am about to get this model as a remanufactured unit at 4k 1tb i7 and a great peice Your review helped me on the choice. Are you still using yours and how is the heating issue on the bottom when being used as a laptop. :)

[@matt31662]

Nice review thanks. Out of curiosity, what do you think it’s behaviour would be if you had 2x70w usb-c plugged in?

[@ThisDoesNotCompute]

Best guess is that it would simply ignore one of the chargers. Unfortunately I don’t have two USB-C chargers handy to test this.

[@suryanshpatel604]

Can't tell if the vudeo is 16:9 or 21:9

[@ishyandmikkischannel8811]

The professional version of this is called the Thinkpad P1. The only difference I can tell is the P1 has different GPUs (the Quadro version) plus is missing the camera slide over at top. So if you want to do Maths calculations buy the P1. If more gaming then the X1 Extreme. Only downside? With the best high resolution anti glare screen the battery doesn't last very long. It used to be available with Intel Xeon processors.

[@danielbocanegra3695]

[@SjaakSchulteis]

I would only use the trackpoint, as I did in the times I owned a Thinkpad.

[@vpr5562]

Hey there. A review for the carbon 6th gen is also worth it, i think. Especially if you would like to work on the go with photoshop, lightroom etc.

[@NFM1337]

I was considering this but worried the gpu might be a little weak for CAD and CT-scan stuff. Went with a Razer instead. I miss the TrackPoint (I hate big TouchPads) and I'm a little bit bothered by the battery life. USB-C charging would have been great too. Great review!

[@CrustyAbsconder]

I have a question for you not related to this video. I am laptop shopping, but I want to replace the SSD and install one with Linux. Most of the information on the web about the nightmare of doing this is over 4 years old. I am under the impression that now, installing Linux on a laptop is not hard ( if you use a 2019 version of a Linux distro ). Supposedly, only a few BIOS settings have to be tinkered with. But I was looking at a 2018 Samsung Odyssey Z, and I can't find any Linux reviews of that. Any insights into this topic ??

[@abgersaurus]

I have this laptop, I did a lot of mods, repaste, new thermal pads, removed the mesh on the bottom and upgraded the screen to a 144hz and still get 10 hours+ on battery. it's great ;)

[@Makta972]

Hey how hard is to remove the mesh ?

[@curiousgeorge6921]

490s vs x1 carbon which one is better they seem to have same specs?

[@michh2836]

Lenovo 😍 ThinkPad

[@erikh8685]

Would you recommend using throttlestop and undervolting on a fresh window's install or is the base install with the lenovo software is suitable?

[@ThisDoesNotCompute]

The base Windows install -- at least on my machine -- was very clean, with just the normal apps that come bundled with the OS. Lenovo didn't add any bloatware (which it shouldn't, at the price the X1 Extreme goes for). You should get similar results in ThrottleStop either way.

[@elcacaro3849]

How could I dock this to use almost as a desktop? I want to use it with 2 screens.

[@MrTeckish]

Why won’t anyone make 1440p laptop panel? 4K is too high and 1080 is too little in resolution

[@CNHabs]

Most people wouldn't tell the difference between 1080p and 1440p on a tiny 14' screen. Most apps come standard in 1080p as well.

[@MrTeckish]

CNHabs it isn’t how clears thing are on a 14” screen....I just need to be able to open multiple windows for multitasking and play some games at a decent frame rate. The 4K screen is cool for productivity but not good for gaming

[@fasilyousaf7759]

What software did you use for the testing?

[@Go.el_Hadam]

I love thinkpads. I have two of them.

[@kingmonkey88]

I use the buttons all the time with the track pad.

[@JoeJHX]

What software are you using to monitor the throttling?

[@giulio7288]

can be the i5 in place of i7 less energy hungry and so less noise or is it the same of the i7?

[@psycl0ptic]

what tool are you using that shows 'throttling'?

[@jl25735]

I'm trying to decide between this one, and the carbon.

[@vladimirljubopytnov5193]

How is that drive slower? max throughput is not that important, most other scenarios favored the x1 drive according to your own numbers :).

[@Trusteft]

I have to say Lenovo makes some good laptops. I have my Y50-70, for 5 years now. A wonderful piece of hardware. If I had money to get a new Windows laptop I would most likely go for another Lenovo. What's the piece of software you show which shows power consumption, throttling, etc? Thanks for the review.

[@tikishark1]

Where may I find the blossom wallpaper from your review? Thanks!

[@2010ngojo]

Don't think thermal throttling means there's not enough power via type c. That would be more of a power limit. Seems like it's hitting thermal limit.

[@joehdah5395]

Why would they remove the buttons on the bottom!!

[@brianwong]

The battery life is really bad on my X1 Extreme 1st gen, I only get 3.5 hrs on "better battery" mode just for web surfing. On performance mode, it's on 2h45m. Because I work on the road, I returned my X1 Extreme for a full refund.

[@Tigerex966]

was that before the latest bios update?

[@brianwong]

@@Tigerex966 This was AFTER the bios and Nvidia driver update and after leaving it with the service center for a week where they formatted the machine and reinstalled all the drivers.

[@hbarudi]

Looks good for a laptop, how laptops have changed since just a few years ago those specs were desktop only or for very thick gaming laptop, in fact just in 2016 you had to have a very thick laptop to get those specs, but now the only thing left is the excessive windows 10 performance consumption even without much stuff open. The next goal for manufacturers is to make a Tablet PC touchscreen with pen at full hd or greater and at least the mentioned i5 cpu, the nvidia max q thing, and at least 16 gb ram and 1tb ssd. For gaming, I can certainly game on those specs very well since I play usually older titles with less system requirements.

[@kirishima638]

Does the touchpad and palmrests look like crap after a few days of use?

[@ThisDoesNotCompute]

The material seems pretty durable - so I’d say that it won’t really show wear, but fingerprints are visible.

[@MightyJabbasCollection]

Very nice production values here.

[@The-Ry-Guy]

I recommend undervolting the CPU and GPU.

[@yatsuk]

The Ry Guy but the point to buy a powerful cpu and to do undervolting? Isn’t better to buy something like core i7 8565U and to get a full performance for the less money?

[@SebastianReichenbach]

Can you tell us what app you are using showing the thermal throttle is active?

[@mrb4285]

That's intel xtu. It's power limit throttling in the video. All the 8750h CPUs do that. I have the same laptop and have under volted 125mv and my turbo clocks are higher and my temps are cooler too

[@SorinMiron]

How is it that every review of the x1 extreme says it's a great machine ... And I have it and it completely sucks. 3h battery life, 0.8ghz to 1.6ghz when battery powered, throttles at 80 degrees when you enable virtualization (and no fix in sight), the integrated graphics can't deliver a decent frame rate on the 4k panel in normal windows and you just need to deactivate it (not to mention a lot of other quality control issues)

[@The-Cat]

What the... Sounds like you havent been looking at your settings lol I've been youtubing and typing comments and programming on (Better performace profile) for over 4 hours on battery and indicator says i've got 2 hour and 19 min remaining on the 4K panel. Granted i've got Dark Mode turned on on any application that offers the option/theme so not much white on screen if that makes any difference. CPU clocks are variable based on what task is being run up to a limit based on your battery saving profile. When I switch it to "Best Performance" I see it clocking up and down as if it was plugged in. Not the 1.6Ghz you claim it maxes out. Just be sure you adjust your Battery performance profile. On Better Performence I'm seeing the same as you but thats the whole point of that profile setting, on Best performance I dont see the same as you I have no performance issues. I cant say much about framerate issues on integrated graphics because i'm in hybrid mode and want to keep it that way but if you're having issues then I can already tell you might have an individual unit prob. NEXT UP i'm gonna enable virtuaization too and check it out since I need it enabled too :D Hope you can figure out the battery issue you got cause I can honestly say it's not normal

[@SorinMiron]

@@The-Cat I have tried a lot and believe me I'm not in any power saver mode. Let me repeat that: 0.8ghz in best performance on full load 100% CPU usage with temps going from 65 to 80 and back during the same workload and fans spinning constantly. That's like a computer from 7 years ago .. or worst. Maybe I just have a bad unit ..

[@The-Cat]

@@SorinMiron Oh damn :( I'm very sorry man. You really should get Lenovo spprt to look at it its seriously not good at all. I honestly dont have those issues as you, I also just went into BIOS and virtualization was already turned on so I cant reproduce the same experience as you are having. I'll check what BIOS version I have so you can check yours if its the same as mine. Maybe its a BIOS version difference that has that prob

[@The-Cat]

I have updated my BIOS because my laptop was delivered just yesterday it came with the following details: UEFI BIOS Version M2EET36W (1.18) UEFI BIOS Date 2019-01-08 Embedded Controller Version N2EHT23W (1.08) With those details I could not reproduce the issues you had. I updated my BIOS to the following details: UEFI BIOS Version M2EET37W (1.19) UEFI BIOS Date 2019-01-31 Embedded Controller Version N2EHT23W (1.10) I still cant reproduce the issues you are having. I'm holding my fingers crossed now just hoping you got a faulty BIOS version and the latest one would fix it for you. If not then definitly seek some contact with support cause those problems is not what your ThinkPad should be performing and it's too expensive to skip out on getting a correct functioning laptop

[@SorinMiron]

@@The-Cat thanks for checking this. Really glad everything works for your unit. I had this issue since my first BIOS update (was working fine before) and I have it even now after updating to 1.19. Do you mind running the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility benchmark when plugged, battery powered (full speed) and posting the scores?
