This is really, really bad. Main: the performance of the Cabon x1 7th generation with Intel i5 processor 8265u is 30% less compared to the Cabon x1 6th generation. Settings do not help. In my tests intel i7 8650u gains 9200 points, i5 8250u – only 5600 points, after 5 seconds is reduced to 4200 points, the frequency is reduced to 1800 MHz. This is a common test of the archiver. Opening the screen at an angle of 140 degrees – the display cover rubs against the table, the paint is erased from the end. Keyboard – became much worse, the course is reduced, the smoothness of pressing disappeared. No different from the faceless Dell XPS keyboard. The appearance of the keyboard is a copy of dell XPS. This is unacceptable – the elegance of thinkpad is lost. The holes for the speakers much collect dust.
