If only they would make a laptop with an AMD processor, no discrete graphics + someone makes a decent keyboard with a trackpoint for it, I'd immediately buy 2, I don't care about the price. It's also likely that I'd be able to convince my employer to switch from thinkpads to this. Btw, it's ironic that the much cheaper T series Thinkpads work much better with Linux and are much more reliable than the X1 series.
Intel processors of this generation are just not energy effiecient and run too hot.

- cue_the_strings 4y agoWOW! I think I'm going to pre-order one, trackpoint be damned! My wife is a bit suspicious of these laptops, let's see how this one fares. I just need to check if it'll work with my Thinkpad Thunderbolt 3 dock (or something similar, I can buy another dock) to output to 2x 4K (actually 3840x2560, so bigger than 4K) monitors. I can currently both power my Thinkpad, and connect all the peripherals, with 1 USB-C cable. It's not something I'm willing to forgo.
- Terretta 4y agoIt does work with 2 x 4K TB3 docks, and you only need a single cable with USB-C charging and monitors you can daisy chain.
- cue_the_strings 4y agoI know that the Intel one does, I'm just looking for definite confirmation that the AMD one does. I'll shoot them an e-mail.
