Sadly Thinkpads no longer are what they used to be. I got the X1 Extreme Gen 5 couple of years back and have had all kinds of problems with it. Blue screens, problem with fans sometimes getting stuck at 100%, constant problems connecting to the dock, not to mention bad battery life... My coworker had to get a warranty replacement when the usb-c port stopped working without any apparent reason only after a month of use. And other coworkers with newer models are also reporting issues.
They may not be as good as they used to be but my T14 is so much nicer to type on than anyone else's laptop.
It's a damn shame too. I love my T530 so I got a T460 and it is so shite. Although I did get unlucky with a cracked mobo but still. Even the x260 I have feels slower than my 530
What OS do you run. My last three x1 carbons have not had much of an issue running Linux.
I can tell you’re not an Arch user.
At the risk of falling into a trap.... I use a downstream arch distro
You get better reliability from Apple than ThinkPads now. At way more money and with restrictions on what operating systems you can use.
