When I talk about premium business laptops, the first thought that comes to mind is the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon, but now that Gen 12 is here, I’m reconsidering that first thought.
The X1 Carbon comes back with a classic sleek design, a bouncy keyboard, and a beautiful OLED display. But it’s trying to pull me in with a $2,199 price tag, a small touchpad, and below average battery life. It’s a good laptop, but not good enough to earn a spot among the best business laptops.
