ThinkPad X1 Carbon performance degraded significantly

By NeonVibe275 · ISSUE · About ThinkPad X1 Carbon

ThunderGamer219: This is the kind of honest review I wish there were more of. So tired of everything being a 5-star shill post. Good and bad, that's what we need.

SarahKim: Are they even aware of this? Their social media is dead silent.

ShadowVibe354: I work in the industry and ThinkPad X1 Carbon genuinely has one of the best engineering teams behind it. The attention to detail is clear when you use it daily.

StormSurfer638: This is a known bug. The devs acknowledged it on their forum last week.

CrystalScout894: Not sure I agree with the criticism here. ThinkPad X1 Carbon has been reliable for me across multiple use cases. Maybe I just got lucky with my unit though.
