Here it is the new X1 Yoga and X1 Carbon! If you had to chose one, which one would you use? Hit me up on discord if you have any questions! discord.gg/mattmoniz
Hey
When are you gonna do a review on the m15 r2, so far there havent been any proper reviews, you would be the first
As soon as I can score one
Hey Matthew, when are going to review Legion Y540
Love your videos
Matthew Moniz you are super awesome 👏🏻
I’m in love with x1 carbon
I wish reviewers of small laptops would let us know the size and weight of the charger. It's very important to people who want a small computer for travel.
I wish I could upvote this comment a thousand times...
Charger is quite compact. light. Also if you buy a slim power bank you can more than double your batter life for like $80
You can get a more lightweight USB-C charger for the X1. As long as its over 60 watt i believe. your comment is very valid. For example the charger for the X1 6gen was more heavy than the machine itself (so to speak).
@@jentler3600 thanks for the info
How dare you always make the exact video I’m looking for the day I’m looking for it?
Lol
Another reason why I prefer Thinkpad over Surface Pro is the fact that it comes with full-size HDMI connector, rather than the mini-display port. I have been to many boardrooms for presentation and I don't have to worry about forgetting to take a dongle with me to connect to presentation screen.
Got both but never used the Yoga features. The standard X1 makes the better laptop.
LOL. You used the words timeless and five years in the same sentence
The keyboard is 8 years old. IT'S TIMELESS!
Been waiting for this video I'm almost about to buy one of these two so thanks for uploading. Straight ordering it as i see this video
You're welcome !
too
Spilled a whole cup of coffee on my Carbon 7th gen two days ago and it works perfectly still!!!
"In fact, it seems to run a little faster"
Please review ThinkPad X1 Extreme (2nd Generation) 2019.
and include the comparison of these high end models
i bought the new x1 carbon 2019 4k and the same exact specs in the video. Its awesome
Moonface00z how’s the battery life? I just got the same but the FHD screen
“Great keyboards for the last five years “ typing this from my thinkpad 25th anniversary edition
They're so good!
Yeah... Lenovo need to make more of these
They both use different kind of keys though
Matt, appreciate all your reviews. Excellent, succinct with depth and sharp conclusions.
Request for advise of 2020 C940 (14") vs X1 Yoga - hope to make decision during Black Friday sales.
(Don't understand so few ports for non thinkpad C940, 9i etc. (headaches for needing ports for dongles)
The Yoga's just flat out more useful, typing from the first gen thinkpad yoga!
Good balanced review between Dave 2D and Jarrod, concise and detailed enough.
The Keyboard on the Lenovo X1 is amazing. Its the keyboard from the IBM Thinkpad Labtops. It has a really nice click to it
Are the keyboards used in all ThinkPad models the same? I have the ThinkPad L13 yoga, does it have the same keyboard as say the ThinkPad x1 yoga, or the x1 carbon?
@@ryfidelity7854 I'm looking at a pic of the Lenovo X13 yoga keyboard on the link below. It's definitely the same keyboard as the other Lenovo. That is my favorite keyboard ever. www.notebookcheck.net/Lenovo-ThinkPad-L13-Yoga-20R6S00800.485828.0.html
3:23 my mom ask me what the hell are you watching
Did you tell her to come here and take a look?
Very clear, concise and accurate comparison. Didnt have to waste my time. Thank you so much.
Late comment -- and suggestion for new comparisons. I currently use a Surface Book 2 (16GB RAM/1TB SSD; I had a Surface Pro 4 prior to this). I like the screen ratio and the battery life is ok. The screen mechanism is somewhat clumsy, and I'm not impressed with the wi-fi card/performance.
Here are my "wishes" for my next laptop:
* Screen shape: 3:2 is better than 16:10 is better than 16:9, preferably at least 13 inch.
* I'd prefer a touch display with inking. Probably not 4k screen -- Windows doesn't work very well with high resolution (menus, etc. on some non-standard programs that I use).
* Good video camera for video meetings. The Surface line has good cameras. MUST have Windows Hello video support.
* I'd prefer 32 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD
* Must have better wi-fi card. I'd also like to have LTE, or even better LTE + 5G.
* Decent keyboard. The keyboard of the Surface Pro is adequate. The one of the Surface Book is better. ThinkPad keyboards are even better. HP keyboards can be good. I've been less impressed with Dell keyboards, but I may be wrong (XPS 13 from 2016).
* Must have: good *real life* battery life. The Surface Pro 4 "promised" 8-9 hours; in reality I saw 1.5-5 hours. The Surface Book 2 "promised" 17 hours; I've seen 7-10 hours.
* Not too heavy.
So what should my next laptop be?
* HPs new Dragonfly? Checks most boxes, but is 16:9 screen ?
* New Surface Pro 7+? Smallish screen, max 16 GB RAM (SSD can perhaps be upgraded from 256GB).
* ThinkPad X1 yoga? How good is the video camera?
* Dell Latitude 9420? How good is the video camera? How good is the keyboard?
For all: how good is the battery life?
Hey Matthew, great review as usual. I like the music you used for this video. It's strange that i noticed and commented on it but i did enjoy the music for some reason. Not intrusive whatsoever.
Thanks man !
How exactly can you miss the giant speaker above the keyboard of the Yoga?
Very easily it doesn’t sound good at all it’s like there isn’t one
oof. 4 Dolby speakers
Just got my X1 YOGA. It definitely has 4 speakers, 2 top and 2 bottom firing speakers. Can't compare with the X1 carbon but the sound is very decent.
How do you like it?
Getting mine on Monday
Did you consider XPS 2 in 1? C930?
I only see negative comments so far...
@@caraveli2573 I really love it. I have been looking for the right laptop for a long time. They are either too slow (fanless Surface Pro 6 with i5) or too loud (Surface Pro with i7 with Boeing-like fan) or too heavy or too flashy/ugly (I don't understand how people can like the latest HP Spectre 13") or too plastic-cheap or they have unbearable MacBook-like keyboards. At the end, I found that 14" was the right dimension for me (not necessarily for everybody) because a 12" to 13" screen is too small for my tired eyes and 15" laptops are too heavy for my tired vertebras. So, in the 14" ultrabook category with high res screen and good keyboard, what choice do to REALLY have?
X1 Carbon or X1 Yoga. That's it. I wanted both UHD and Touch screen so I had only one choice: X1 Yoga.
Everything else is a bonus. Lots of ports. Fast NVMe drive, nice understated look and robust construction.
OK, there is ONE thing I am not too happy with. It gets hot. We had a hot summer and I was wearing shorts quite often when working at home. I can tell you that this machine gets pretty hot and having it on my lap was not comfortable at all. With pants on, no issue so i'll have a comfortable winter :-)
I considered XPS 2 in 1 but the new model wasn't ready when I needed it. Also, Dell is following Apple in Dongle-land and I don't like it. In addition, it's a 13" screen and I find them too small for my taste. I almost went for the C930 but I decided against it because having an HDMI port is very useful for me as I do a lot of presentations and not having to carry another dongle to connect to a beamer is just very convenient. In addition, the feeling of robustness and high quality is not the same (this may be more perception than reality but perception matters).
@@philippelambinet1425 thank you very much for your feedback!
I couldn't have said it better.
Your reasons for buying the X1Y are exactly the same as mine.
I'm glad you like so far, and I know I will too.
It's my first Windows pc in 15 years, and I'm very excited to go back.
My first step was 8 years ago, when I changed iPhone to Android, and now my macbook to thinkpad.
Apple have gone down hill....
Thanks again!
Hi Mathew,
I Suppose the latest 4th Gen X1 yoga has a 4 speaker system ?
yes 2x 2 Watt on the bottom and 2x. 0.8 Watt above the keyboard. IMO the Yoga has the better speaker system compared to the carbon.
0:19 "buy haemorrhoid cream!"
😂😂😂😂
It really can save your day, trust me :)
Matt...the Yoga has better speakers. You neglected to mention that the Yoga has a new sound bar unlike then Carbon. They both have the same keyboard.
Mario Peraza ifbb pro yeah he totally messed that up. 4 Dolby speakers. Superior sound over carbon.
A tablet form factor of 16:9 makes little sense in portrait mode. But then again, it also makes little sense in landscape mode. If you want to use your laptop for productivity, that is.
Lenovo: Trackpoint

Matthew Moniz: Nipple
Concise and to the point. Great review, Matt!
Thank you David!
Great video, under 5min, concise and to the point. My vote is for the Yoga!
Thanks David! I'm with the carbon I prefer the traditional clam shell
@@MatthewMoniz me too👍
Good content, thanks. Could you please compare the x1carbon with the other brand ultrabooks within the same class. Thanks in advance
Go for x1 if you like something durable. I bought a gen 6 few months ago, it's just awesome. Compare to others in the same class like macbook or dell xps, x1 is better in many ways. Basically I can use it anywhere and anyway I want regardless dust, moist, heat,... the keyboard is outstanding, battery can survive 1 and a half workday but of course if you only do some basic office work. The one should be mentioned is speakers, they're just horrible.
now subscribed for you subtle and your not-so-subtle jokes! Very informative indeed!
Just ordered an X1 Carbon 7th gen sight unseen. Retiring my 8 year old ThinkPad X201. Or at least putting her in mothballs. I hope the X1 is a worthy upgrade. I went for the X1 carbon over the Yoga as I wanted to try a super light ultrabook this time around.
Hey how has the X1 carbon been treating you? Honest feedback?
can you make a video about the best 2 in 1 laptops in 2019? the ones that are for digital artists while good enough for gaming.
The Yoga has an all metal case, the X1 is a metal frame with a plastic case. That probably accounts for most of the difference in weight.
X1 carbon
Abit early today, nice video as always!
Thanks man!
Heads up...x1 yoga gen 7 is running up to 12th gen i7 1280p. Much better performance than the i7 you quoted.
I'd hope so! You're comparing the Yoga in this video which was filmed in 2019 to the latest one that just came out in 2022.
@@MatthewMoniz haha...reading comprehension owns me...I thought you titled it x yoga gen 7. My mistake
Funny looking back from 2024 how these pre covid era laptops paid little attention to webcams. It now makes laptops made prior to 2019 pretty defunct given they're now an important necessity.
Why do you only have 400k subscribers? You're way too good! :) I hope you get more subs! 👍🏾
Thanks hardik I appreciate the kind words!!
Thanks for responding! 🙈 Now maybe you could help me get that free laptop? 😉🙈
2:28 this variance can be explained by the low-power DDR3 RAM in the 2 ThinkPads
Dell's latest 13" Latitude is actually a solid competitor. Hell, even the L390 series are good.
My Dell 9350 is barely 5 years old (1 month out of 4 yr warranty) and now goes to sleep spontaneously. I've done IT support for 30 years and I've tried everything to fix it. Think I'll go back to Lenovo. They never gave me any trouble even after 8 years. They're like the Lexus of laptops.
no1un0 they truly are the best.
Hi Mathew, I've been following your channel for a while, and you're doing an awesome job. I actually bought an Alienware 13 R3 after seeing you reviewing it. However, I am a heavy linux user and I very rarely use windows. I wonder if you can help and include something on Linux compatibility when you review a laptop. Again, thank you very much I truly appreciate what you're doing.
"Whereas the Yoga just has 2 speakers on the bottom"
In your own video I can see a large speaker grill on top, in-between the hinges, other reviews also mention it.
That's right! Plenty of reviews mention that the Yoga has the four speakers: two on top and two at the buttom. This totally makes sense because as you flip the X1 Yoga the sounds gets muffled. Got a Gen 1 X1 Yoga and would see the for speakers as good improvement.
I hate matte gaming type displays. Makes the computer look cheap. Definitely going with the Yoga.
please do an update version of this comparison
How does the keyboard locking mechanism work when the yoga is used as a tablet?
Hey Mathew, Can you please review the MSI GS65 9SG 2019
Ordered my X1Yoga4 last night (10/9/19) using HUGE discount code THINKPADSALE (case sensitive). This gives you exactly the same Black Friday starting price as last year’s X1Y3 toward this years X1Y4!
I Paid $1,673 to customize the following rig:
i7-8565U
512 Samsung NVMe
16GB DDR3
FHD 380 nits
The lefty strat is awesome!
best video of the year
Thanks Paul!
How do you compare the x1 yoga to the yoga c930? Which one should I get? Thanks
They're both great id say get whatever is the best deal but the yoga has a better keyboard and is a bit more refined
The pen isn't that easy to lose when you buy it with your own money. I've been using my iPad for about a year and never have I even dropped the pencil.
Thanks for great video review. How is the PWM ? I would like to know about screen flicker?
Please do a comparison of x1 carbon and xps13. Thank you in advance Matt!
Yes sir !
Over 2000 bucks for an Intel-U processor without dedicated graphics? 51 hour watt battery and down-facing speakers?
WHAT?!
Inten Ditore what are some better alternatives
They're always on sale for way less than that
@@davidlyday7373 HP probook G6 is quite good
Got my 6th gen loaded in mint condition for 850 shipped, hard to say no.
awesome laptops , i like the carbon more just because it's carbon lol, dope video Matt
Me too! I prefer the carbon as well
where are the x1 extreme reviews!!
Don't have one yet!!!!!!!
are the keyboards exactly the same with both ? Same feedback and key travel etc ?
waswaniable no, the 8th gen has the keys actually lowered a bit into the computer. The keys are much more satisfying to me compared to the retractable keys in the carbon.
Hi Matthew. Just wanted to ask you if you noticed the shallower keys on this model versus the last model. Would be great to hear your thoughts on it.
Love you matthew
Thanks Daniel! Hope you're having a great day!
Are the keyboards the same for all ThinkPad models? Like the ThinkPad L13 yoga vs the X1 yoga or X1 carbon keyboards?
What camera are you using?
" I want this to be the best nipple you've ever touched"
I'm so done...Comedy gold love it 😆😂🤣💀⚰
Hi, I wanted to buy 2 in 1 and ordered the 2019 X1Y. The XPS 13 with same specs was $400 more, and the c930 came out the same price. Do you think I made the right decision choosing the X1Y over the other two? Thanks
Definitely yes. X1Y will last you better for years longer than either of the other 2
do one with the extreme
As soon as I get one in the studio, I certainly will!
@@MatthewMoniz waiting for it
@@MatthewMoniz waiting for it too. Also thank you for not being like most other tech youtubers who mainly focus on the latest and greatest smartphones that barely anyone will buy.
@@MatthewMoniz Please do! I need to know if it's at the top tier of your list for content creators! Will its dedicated GPU be enough?
is this laptop (i7/16Gb) suitable for AutoCAD and Matlab programming? I understand that it has an integrated graphics card. What'd a 2 in 1 that can run AutoCAD or a budget 2 in 1 gaming laptop? thanks.
Which is a better laptop between Lenovo X1 Carbon and Lenovo X1 Yoga all with the following specs
Core i7 8th gen 16GB RAM | 512GB SSD 14"
Should I buy x1 carbon 2019 or Razer blade 15, or even sell XPS 13? Which one is better. My main focused is performance in editing and videos, and then gaming.
Razer Blade and XPS 15 have dedicated graphics cards, so choose either one of them
Love the window shadow in the background
Thanks for the info
Thanks and you're welcome!
Can the yoga handle photoshop and Lightroom reasonably well on its own? And then if docked with an eGpu?
Can someone confirm this for me please ?
What about vs X1 tablet?
I was looking at these notebooks when I found the fujitsu U939X. 2 lbs and can bes used as a tablet as the yoga. Only 13,3 screen though. If you get one please review as well. From these I would go for the x1 as that weight would count (I looking for a business notebook for my wife, being a tablet is only a sight plus not worth the weight).
Dont forget that the X1 comes with a touch screen option also
Yes the yoga does hence you can draw on it. They both have their advantages
You should get the c940 or c740 if you don't need all those ports both are cheaper and have great features also the c940 has a bigger battery
You left out the part where the Yoga's hinges are gonna break in a couple of years.
And the screen is going to start to flicker and they will cancel offering any extended warranties.
I have a first gen Thinkpad Yoga 14. I take it everywhere, in a backpack, in panniers on a bicycle, and I've dropped it three times, hard, twice with the screen open. I've found the hinges to be pretty tough.
My problem with this great keyboard: the Page Up & Page Down buttons soooo close to the arrows (left, right, up and down). I have a lot of mis hits. So annoying! Anyone else with this problem?
I returned my X1 Carbon and bought a 2015 MacBook Pro. Really happy now!
Thank you very much!. Q: the x1 carbon touch screen heavier than the carbon w/o touch screen? thx
LOL, they were sooooooo close to getting my money with the x1 Yoga 2019. This could have been a reall MacBook Killer, with the frosted glass touchpad, that awesome (non-butterfly hinge🙄) keyboard, metal case, a *touch screen w/ stylus*, and the lack of the dongle-life. If only they had made the RAM upgradeable, like the L380. Or even if they offered a 32GB or 64GB version for that longevity, at a reasonable price. Freaking Apple charging $800 bucks for 48 additional GBs of RAM in their 16" MBP?!?!? You could probably get an entire L380 on discount for that price, an entire laptop!
Also, I prefer the clamshell to the 360 hinge. Very little wiggling when typing w/ clamshell; annoys the heck out of me, especially on a glossy screen.
alas.....
As per the review, both are good contenders...
Hey Mathew, do we have international warranty on these laptops?
Hey I've a quick question. which one should I choose? MSI GS65 RTX2060 32GB Memory 512GB Storage 240HZ Refresh Rate Display (or) Acer Predator Triton 500 RTX2060 16GB Memory 512GB Storage 144HZ Refresh Rate Display. I'm not a big gamer, I might not game at all. I'm looking to buy any one of these laptops for Video Editing on Davinci Resolve. Can you please help me.
Whoch one is best for developers and designers???
I have the option to buy x1 carbon 8th gen fhd low power 400 nite or the x1 yoga 5th gen wqhd display 300nits
All the other specs are exactly the same - what’s the difference between these two screens and he effects on productivity performance ?
Do they have the same keyboard? thank you.
u failed to mention whether the x1 carbon 7gen is touch screen or not
You failed to check the spec sheet
Matthew Moniz loFl. again, u failed, and u failed in life...hence u r youtubing
My yoga doesn't turn on, i guess it's a broken power button, does somebody know how to fix it?
At 2:02, aren't those speaker grilles just above the keyboard of the X1 Yoga? i'm sure they are not air vents or just there for design lol
They're airvents
Matthew Moniz Lenovo’s webpage says they are speakers. Two up firing on top of keyboard and two down firing on the bottom are woofers.
SOG989 They are indeed speakers. Says so right on Lenovo’s webpage. Not sure why he insisted they were air vents. Does not give me a good feeling about the rest of his review.
PT76251 I have both. They’re speakers. The sound bar is a speaker not air vents. The Yoga has better sound system
Than the carbon
I use the X1 Carbon as my daily workhorse working as a Web developer. It is a really nice piece of tech both look and performance wise. The only regrettable thing is that the RAM is soldered, so no upgrading to 32GB for me 😢.
YA the ram is a downfall but i'd imagine most wouldn't need more than 16 in an ultrabook but a few obviously would like the option!
If maybe going to use for IT COURSE like cyber security software engineering in the future. And maybe have a game match sometime. Do u have any recommendations???
Are the keyboards identical? Looks like there is a difference! :-)
Hello, are the keyboard the same for both version?
They need to keep it in black 😎👌
😍😍
Any thoughts between these and the Gygabite Aero 15?
is the keyboard on the carbon backlit? might be a dumb question but idk
Best Video🔥👍🏻
Thanks dude !
Which one best Lenevo x1 yoga or HP x360...?
Interesting Laptops!
Keyboard is same in both laptops right?
I am torn between both. Which is better on glare between both?
Is the carbon better than last years?
If you don't want glare get the fhd model I believe it's matte
As a Lenovo yoga 730 owner, I'm never buying a Lenovo laptop again. This thing is plagued with problems that others have experienced (look at reviews) and Lenovo refuses to acknowledge and repair these defects
Lorenz what problems do you have? Just bought the x1 yoga. Would like to know what to watch out for.
I bet he's talking about the flickering screen problems....just google it.
I thought these are advertised at 18+ hours battery life. Why did you say 5 Hours? what test did you do?
