But Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme pushed the performance boat on almost every front, connected the 8th generation Intel Core i7 CPU to the Nvidia Max-Q GPU and wrapped the gift in carbon-fiber and aluminum case.
This paper is a laptop that is the dream of display users, but does it last up to the promotion and price?
X1 Extreme is available in most areas, although specific models may vary. An entry-level notebook costs $ 1,673 (£ 1,619.99), and has core i5 CPU, no discrete GPU, 8GB RAM, 256GB NVMe storage and a 1080p non-touch display.
Review Specification The cost of hardware is $ 2,834 (2,679.99 pounds, including VAT), but there is a whole range of hardware gifts as you will see in the special details given below.
For American customers, Lenovo also provides an 'awesome' version, which includes the Intel Core i7-8850H six-core processor vPro (2.60GHz, up to 4.30GHz with Turbo, 9MB cache) which is over 3,200 padded.
This processor is available in Europe as an optimization option, but it is expected to pay the same number of euro as the dollar.
In essence, this is not a machine that will be bought by people who are value-sensitive, but this laptop has sufficient quantity of high quality technology.

But it also needs to be very practical. And, unexpectedly not in its ThinkPad series, Lenovo is a part of the equation in nail Thinkpad X1 Extreme.
There is no part of this portable that the average user of the day will feel the day they receive it.
All connectors are arranged with sides, buttons and ports are all clearly labeled, as well as keyboard and touchpad are large and responsive. All this is good, all users are ready for fast acceptance, and are ready for business.
There are lots of lovely touch and refinements, but for us, the standout visual feature is a wonderful screen of 15.6 inch. It is exceptionally bright, very colorful and remarkably crisp.
Our only complaint about the display is, and it is an easy to find point, on this basic resolution and brightness, losing track of the mouse pointer at the normal level is very easy.
The only important aspect of this overall design is how heavy it is. Over 4lbs (1.84kg), this is not a system that you want to keep for a long time, and it is not a computer that you can easily lift with one hand.
Said that even on this weight, this is the most weighty Thinkpad that makes Lenovo, few grams of T580 is less.
For those who have never owned Thinkpad, the only warning we give is that against the traditional keyboard logic, the function key is on the left side of the bottom row instead of the CTRL.
This is not a big problem for most users, but it may be some acclimatization for those who use desktop computers with this keyboard set with traditional keyboards.
It's powerful with a laptop, when you start pushing the system, and can kick the fan with X1 Extreme, it's clearly audible. However, to capture the fan at the maximum speed, the GPU has to capture completely, and most of the time it will not happen.
Port allocation is excellent with two full Thunderbolt 3 connectors, and the only disappointment is the use of a proprietary power supply port instead of type-C. At least the power connector is a strong effort, not a terrible needle that can fall so easily. Note that X1 charges flat in approximately 2.5 hours.
An oddity is that where x 1x is roughly the size of the ethernet port, instead it has a small adapter to replace the network extension port and ethernet.
Our concern will be to lose this small adapter, because it is easily replaceable Lenovo from somewhere else.
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Specifications
As soon as the configuration runs, it is one of the most powerful portable computers you can buy.
While Lenovo did not push the boat completely out and used the core i9-8950HK or Xeon E CPU, Core i7-8750H is a vertical six-core and twelve-threaded silicon animal.
It only requires a single core to crush the majority of office computing tasks, and to be well-passionate and to assign the other five to work around the world. It is the perfect hardware to make NVMe storage and most of the 2400MHz DDR4 RAM, despite the challenges put in front of it is ready for a very spectacular display.
And in the graphics department, where most laptops reach the capacities of their capabilities, X1 Extreme has Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 TI with Max QT technology and dedicated 4GB of DDR5 memory dedicated to trust.
