Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 1 - Unboxing and First Impression By BsianDad

Get everyone is Asian day here: we've got a special one today we're going to do the unboxing and first impression of this Lenovo ThinkPad x13 gen 1. This is a 13-inch business class laptop, and I have actually done a review video of the x13 yoga gen one. Now that one is a two-in-one version. That means that you can actually flip the screen around, and it comes also all the styles, so you can actually convert it to a tablet and then also right on the screen. Now, if you haven't checked that review video out I'll put a link in the description below, so you can actually check that out if you're interested after this, so I've got a bit of an idea what to expect for this version of x13. Now this x13 is the clamshell traditional one that you normally see so got a bit of idea on that now I did say this is a special one, so this one I've got here is the intel version of it, and so what I've got special is I've also got the AMD version of the x13 gen one as well.

Now, I'd like to first make a big thank you to AMD for sending me this front here, so I can actually have one of these rare occasions where I've actually got both of these on the do different types of configurations. So this one is an i5 of the x13 and right here I've got is the dozen 5 version of the x13, so these will head very nicely, compete against each other there. So this is going to be a dual unboxing there, so I will create a follow-up video after I spent a little of time with these two computers so expect that a little, and I'll put a link in the description below when that is made available. So, let's start off with the unboxing. As always, as you know, I've got my good old trusty knife here so which one should I start off with.

Lets might as well go over the intel. First, all right. Let's get this one going, so let's just make that little slit. These are easy with the Lenovo and just do that one more time. It is dangerous.

All right I'll, just bring that up. I might, since I've got the marker, I might as well just undo the last one for the AMD version as well. There we go I'll just make that clean cut there. Let's put this one away, and I might as well put the ain't even over here and let's start with the intel version here. So this is going to be quite interesting to see.

So as always, let's bring this up here. So, let's first off is pull this box out now we've got. What here is power? Cable, as I always like to do, is look at the power cable. First, I'm just put this over here now. What do we get? We've got a 65 watt, power, adapter and then a three prong thing, and this runs off an USB c.

So that's good to see. Let's chuck this on the side here, and then we've got also the laptop okay. Let's pull this thing up? Oh, that's nice! It's actually using cardboard, so they're actually being very sustainable, environmentally friendly. So it's very easy to recycle, that's good to see that from Lenovo. Oh, and then we've got this laptop here now.

These all right, so let's have a look at what this one here we've got now this one is very nice and clean. Is there anything else, besides that I'll just have a quick look, all right, just some documentation, we don't need those we'll read that a little later, I'm going to move this down to the bottom here around there all right. So this is the intel version I might as well bring out the AMD version out as well. So let's start that one out as well too, I have a feeling it's going to be very similar in what we're going to get. So I think we're going to get oh the screen there we go again, I'm expecting six, five four watts, and we've got 65 watts as well and, of course it should be USB.

It is USB, so I'll just put that along this over here and let's drop it down there again good to see carbon looks like cardboard. That's nice and sustainable, that's great to see- and I might bring this one out here- I'll just drop that down there and again on these. Here, let's bring that up: okay and here's the AMD version, so I'm going to keep the AMD to my left side and that which is your right side, all right, so first off fuel wise, they both feel the exact same, so they both have that nice sort of like Powderly carbonyl plastic, so that can take a fair bit of a beating which is great to see I'll just check this on the AMD version same as well, too, that whole polycarbonate all the way through very nice texture. These will last for a long time. These things here they weigh pretty much nearly the same here.

They pretty much weigh the same, but pretty much, there's only a few differences. Besides the chipset itself. I do know the AMD version with the intel version. It will support thunderbolt if it's got that configured most of them do have thunderbolt 3 configured, whereas the AMD version, it's only the USB 3.2 gen 2 for so for those two ports there. So it doesn't have the intel thunderbolt, of course, for the AMD version, but we'll get some things a little from maybe a little more surprises from the AMD version of anyway.

So, let's first off, let's have a look at the buffs of the slides here. Oh, they do take a fair bit, see as you can see. Oh, there we go now. I do just need to take those things off now. This one came with that one there, this one didn't that's all right.

Okay, so straight up both look those keyboards the exact same. They pretty much will use the ThinkPad keyboard, which is pretty well known with this same again, both function, keys on the right hand, side, sorry left-hand side there, and you can do the swap around for the control keys anyway. Anyway, let's get past the trackpads the same as well, everything looks the same. We still got fingerprints scanner on both of them and the power button is on there. Now, I'm just going to have a quick check now with just the hinge-wise that will go 180 degrees for the AMD and with the intel version again, it'll probably be 180 degrees as well too.

That's pretty easy! Now I might as well just do the quick one finger test on both of these here. Just so, you can see how they go. So I'm just going to link that yep they're both pretty much. The hinge is the same here. So let's take a little of effort, so just hold that down and pretty much go all the way through there and I might as well just do the same.

I'm just going to do one of them anyway, because it's the same. I know people ask me this question: if it does the lid open, as it turns, and I'm going to have to tell you it does not? So it's got a nice very, very nice shot clam system, but it does take a little of time to open up one finger. Of course. Okay, now I'm going to bring the set now this one. Okay, here is the intel i5 version, and this one is the dozen 5.

Now this is the dozen pro 5 okay. So what makes the difference here so with the intel they've got the v-pro and with the pro version it will do the AMD management pro system there so and for the big organization they actually have this manageability as well security built in and so that actually can it department can actually manage these two computers in a way. So it's pretty good to see all right, lets kind of boot, these things up, I do have very two different one so, and we will boot these up now I will be running the benchmarks and also the thermals and testing out the temperatures and fan noise of both these two computers in my review, video so do check those two out, but here we go. I don't think we've got one fired up how about this one here this one's probably been image with my organization, so that's probably a reason why it's far away this one's completely going to be maybe need some more power for this. Sometimes it does need more power, but that's right we'll get this one through.

This will have probably finished its setup already, whereas this one has not but pretty much it. Let's have a quick look at this one here, all right, so we can see the screen here is quite nice, so you've got this sort of little fair bit of bezel on the top and a fair bit of bezel on the side. Sorry, on the bottom, but on the side, it's not too much it's about a medium length of bezel, I got a, probably admit, so it's doing all right there and of course it's got a 720p webcam on both of these, and we've also got the privacy shutter on those two as well too. So I will get this one going. It's probably just needs to be connected to power and that's quite usual.

Some of them do. They haven't been fully set up yet, so I'll connect these two power, but this is just unboxing having a quick first impression as well. I will be putting these two x13s through its pace and, if you haven't actually subscribed to my channel, do subscribe just to get the notifications when I do upload the video out for you and if you actually enjoy this video or find it informative, smack that, like button for me and again, if I haven't subscribed to the channel subscribe, my channel do upload a new video every week as well, and, of course, imperfections in life makes it beautiful and interesting I'll see you next video.
