Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 Review: Fast but not flawless

 

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 accomplished what it sets out to do, offers the most powerful ThinkPad you can buy. But it's not class-leading.

“The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 isn't a perfect performer, but there's plenty to like about it.”

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 Review

 

Trim, light design with sunny 16-inch screen ; Roaring performance ; HDMI and USB-A ports, as well as USB-C/Thunderbolt ; Superb keyboard ; Wi-Fi 6E

No OLED display option ; A bit pricey ; Another couple of hours of battery life would be nice

We miss last year's gorgeous OLED screen, but Lenovo's refreshed ThinkPad X1 Extreme remains a top choice for creative pros.

Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme review (gen 4, 16-inch, Intel i7+ RTX 3060)

 

Last on my list for the year is the Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme. Like the X1 Carbon, I was very excited to get my hands on it and see how well it

superb build quality and practical design ; good input devices ; many hardware/screens configuration options, and upgradeable RAM/storage ; up to RTX 3080, with a MUX ; enticing balance of performance, quality and portability ; alright speakers for the...

only a 350-nits 60Hz QHD+ panel option, and not the nicer model from the Legions ; limited power control ; single SSD slot on the 3060+ configurations ; high CPU/GPU temperatures and noisy fans with demanding loads ; crummy webcam ; MSRP is expensive,...

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 Laptop Review: Powerful and Well-Rounded

 

After testing its predecessor in late 2020, I was excited to get my hands on Lenovo's latest iteration—the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 laptop. And as expected, the Gen 4 proved that its premium components and smart design are worth its high price.

Tall and roomy 16:10 display ; Top-notch specs ; All-around solid design

Pricey ; No OLED configuration option ; Battery life isn't great ; Gets hot and loud under heavy use

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 Review: Bigger (Screen) Is Better

 

A 16:10 display is a notable improvement.

+ Strong performance ; + Bright, colorful screen ; + Powerful speakers

- Single-channel RAM ; - Pricey

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 4 has switched to a 16:10 display and the latest components from Intel and Nvidia, making for a powerful laptop that can show more of your work—as long as you're willing to pay enterprise prices.
