Did I Just Find The Perfect Laptop? By Unbox Therapy

So I've been on this mission. Looking at different computing devices, I did the iPad Pro experiment in which I just couldn't get used to that tight cover. I know it's slim, its slender, but I started to long for a more tactile. Click now I have an extensive history with the MacBook products, but you know that keyboard has changed a lot over the years, we're now using butterfly switches which will loves if I wanted to find the ultimate laptop or typing experience, click keys, who should I look towards and of course, Lenovo ThinkPad came into my head because I was like man I, remember back in the day, I had a t-series with a real nice keyboard, I'm hoping that maybe this thing is the ultimate laptop typing experience: it's the x1 carbon. It's thin, it's light, it competes directly with the MacBook Air. Of course, this is on the windows side, this one.

What's the spec all right, do we have this back here? We don't have the spec use. The one I have is the classic black Perkins. We got the box in the box scenario. This is a nice looking box over here. All right, ooh Oh boom, see man elevate, good night, listen, Shh, woo-hoo, nice and thin I don't know jack.

Am I switching the windows at night, MacBook time? Okay, that's pretty slim type-c connector as well on the power adapter. Here we go mmm-hmm! Look at that! It's thin! It's light! Yes, there's actual carbon! We have a headphone jack, a USB on the other side, Type C. This is a networking breakout for a wired connection via the docking station, another USB in a full size, HDMI out so different from the styling that we're seeing so commonly on laptops. Today, military utilitarian get the job done, make the trade do the deal. Business is getting done here.

Let me give us a little taste. I see a little curvature to each key cradling, the fingertip, oh yeah, yeah. Okay, that's a keyboard which keys on there there are letters you type them you hit them. There is travel and the whole thing. It's super solid, there's, no flex in the deck whatsoever.

Since you're all business. You can cover the front-facing camera very nice. You still have the little red touch, point tracking surface there, certain ThinkPad people, they love that thing I never got used to it. I'm, probably on a trackpad myself fingerprint scanners over here I might be a little nicer to see it somewhere where you're going to touch more frequently like the power switch. But anyhow you have the fingerprint scanner there.

Let's go ahead and boot it up a matte screen. It's somewhat anti-reflective when compared to the glossy stuff that we're used to seeing also happens to be touch screen, so you could reach up and tap away now. Another thing I've always liked about the ink pads look at that all the way down to there. Kirk was telling me he's at yoga the other day. What poses that sleeping dog? It's a sleeping dog! You see, I know my yoga.

Look, you know what you hold it like that, oh, my god, it's slender super light. What is the weight of this? Will 2.5 so lighter than a MacBook Air, so you're saving 0.25 pounds quarter of a pound, quarter-pounder you're saving a quarter founder? Maybe you want the quarter pound? Maybe you need to carry this and a quarter pound. What is the screen size? This is also a bit bigger right, 14 inches, so the MacBook a 13 inch. This is a 14-inch plus it's a quarter pound lighter okay. There, that's full brightness I feel like I, didn't show you before.

If I'm at a Starbucks I'm on this you're, like that, guy he's probably doing something series you see the same guy, but he's got the MacBook Shh forget about him. That guy he's no trouble. You can listen to it yourself. I mean you can hear them, but they're, not they're, not slapping you in the face. Now an area I'm a little concerned is the speaker performance.

Okay, sound is coming on the bottom meter. There are two speakers that fire against the table they're right there. Oh, you know what I mean it is better coming off the table. Oh, I just noticed the eye lights up on big pads. That's a futuristic touch.

This is like thinning light, ultraportable hacker. This is you're Neo. It's the matrix, post-apocalyptic future. This thing scuffed up a little. You slide it into like a bag.

That's beat-up! This thing is so light. It's just like a Frisbee Will's MacBook Pro is a 15-inch laptop. It's like four and a half pounds bring that laptop over here. Well with us, your favorite part of the day. Ah, this is powerful.

Graphics card. Okay, like we understand it's, not a one-to-one comparison, give her a shot yeah, it's pretty light, no hold it holds each one, don't hold it going: oh yeah, yeah yeah! Obviously this one's heavier yeah, so you're converting, so you're, converting over you're done with this I'll just throw this out, for you feels good, though right MMM give the keys a little tinkle. Oh yeah, you sure now, hey yeah, that's what I like this Oh. If you're in like a Starbucks, that's a little much well, if you type like that, but I'm doing the same here. But you know what, though, like what build quality for the keys is actually pretty good.

It's the only way to test it. You press on the corner of the space bar. If the whole thing you know kind of works with it, yeah kind of all presses down. That's how you know it's like a good design. Hmm-Hmm-Hmm! Oh this, don't do that.

Buddy! Hmm, I haven't exclusively used Windows on my laptop in a very long time. So what would you say? Will he do to the idea of me getting rid of the MacBook Air and just going x1 carbon for a bit? You don't think windows is gonna. Do it for me, I think, so it does email. It does YouTube pretty well you're trying to say I, don't do very much hmm huh I'm into it. Man I'm looking to try more stuff out than go to Starbucks.

I can be Neo. I can do the blue pill. Furthermore, I can do the red pill to I. Do both pills. Let's tell them what the configurations are.

You can get an F, HD, IPS anti glare. You get the same display with multi-touch, that's the one we have right here, but it's only 300 myths look at those nits Jack. If you step all the way up to the HD RWA HD display it gets glossy. You get Dolby Vision because of the HDR thing, and you go up to 500, nits storage, 256 up to 1 terabyte 16 gigs of ram on all the versions up to an eighth generation Intel Core i7 8650, you that's 1.9, gigahertz up to 4.2 gigahertz turboboost okay, it starts at 1300, so the MacBook Air starts at 1200. This starts at 1300 they're orbiting in the same solar system.

It's an interesting package I feel like I'm having a bit of a throwback, a bit of laptop nostalgia going on, but in a modern form factor in terms of size and weights. But for now I'm going to start a little Windows experiment. Multi-Touch, really nice keyboard, mm-hmm I'm, going to touch this keyboard, and I'm going to see what happens. Okay. Let's do it yeah.
