The new ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga uses expensive materials and is Lenovo's new flagship business convertible. It is also the thinnest ThinkPad so far, but that results in some compromises, for example in terms of performance as well as input devices.

Enough with anorexic laptops. We have past the point of diminishing returns on thickness. Focus on other aspects instead of beancounting thickness.
This looks like a device that came from the depths of hell to scare all Thinkpad fans.
Hard pass. A clickpad that shitty is not acceptable. Oh wait I avoid all laptops with clickpads of all kinds entirely - that means 99% of the junk out there. 1% of the laptops that have proper buttons - especially the gaming ones left are the only decent ones, since in ultrabooks, you will find only clickpads of varying and unknown degrees of quality.
Lousy junk. How is this a Thinkpad in any way but name?
"...When the device is closed, the lid and the base unit sot flush at the left front, but the lid is slightly protruding at the right side..."
I have the same issue with mine also. It looks like this is a general issue. :-\
aside from this everything else is fine, I cannot understand the criticism on the other points. The trackpad is not as smooth as the glass versions of the X1 carbon/yoga lineup but responsiveness, haptic feedback and clicking is almost on MacBook Pro level. The keyboard is also better then on the X1 Nano but again worse as on the regular X1 carbon/yoga lineup.
Of course, you have to make compromises for the thinnest and lightest convertible. All extremes are marked by compromises. Also it's seems his unit have more than one defect.
Except this isn't the lightest, there are many lighter 2-in-1 laptops under 1kg that are more convenient to use as a Tablet.
Looks good overall but I was expecting unibody Titanium for something this expensive, not slapping on a thin sheet of statement piece slab on the lid.

Looks good overall, but Titanium being used only on the lid on a "X1 Titanium Yoga" would be a major deal-breaker if I were getting on of them.
OK, more precisely the lightest and thinnest 13.5" convertible, better?
Good you don't have to buy it. Good for me that I didn't have to pay for it 8). I'm happy with the titanium cover and the carbon-magnesium-chassis.
