Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 20FB-005XUS Notebook Review

[Redaktion]

Carbon footprint. We compare our second more affordable Core i5 FHD SKU against the pricier Core i7 WQHD SKU to see if it's worth saving some few bucks for less pixels and performance power.

Why is the performance of Intel Core i5-6300u is so weak? Is this the same situation in Thinkpad T460s?

[Sergiy]

Because it's an ultra-low power CPU (u stands for ultra-low power)

Why is the charging so slow? Wouldn't it be the same as the other SKU , with "quick-charging" option? The power adapter is the same for both laptops.

Was the brightness setting used for both laptops for battery test the same? Weird that i5 would have a higher idle power consumption?

How do you calibrate the color, I have bought this model and are now calibrating the color?

I find it interesting that he thought that this was a weak and slowly-charging computer. In my experience, it seems to be a comparatively nimble system, especially when compared to the fourth-generation Core-i series products from Lenovo and others.
