I haven't had any problems with my X1. But maybe i got lucky and won the "lottery". A great machine IME Other options might be T480/T490 series - for "close" to X1 thinness the T490s (T480s) are an option. I previouly had a T470 and also had no keyboard issues Dell XPS dev editions are nice but I prefer the TP keyboard
