The ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 2 is the most powerful ThinkPad ever. It's a great laptop for any PC enthusiast or creative professional who demands the best performance. The AMOLED display is one of the best you'll find in a 15.6-inch laptop.
Pros
  • Beautiful AMOLED display
  • Powerful components
  • Comfortable keyboard
Cons
  • Disappointing battery life
  • No Thunderbolt 3

Reviewers from pcmag have found:
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme is a desirable laptop for creative pros. It's not quite the stunner that the ThinkPad Carbon is, however. It faces formidable competition from the refreshed XPS 15 and MacBook Pro. Still, except for its battery life, it's a couple to pick with my unit.
Pros
  • Gorgeous 4K display
  • Sleek design
  • Excellent battery life
Cons
  • Lackluster graphics performance
  • No Thunderbolt 3 port
