  Yes, if you look at a photo of the X220 lid, what looks like a cosmetic accent across the lid near screen-top is actually a seam, between the nice alloy traditional lid, and some plastic that's barely held on, painted to look the same. Even minor impact can break the little plastic screw hole tabs that hold the screen-top edge of the lid. Absolutely not what you want from a ThinkPad, which has a legacy of being durable. https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fgiving-the-x220-a-new-chance-in-life-v0-mvsitozcql5e1.jpg%3Fwidth%3D1080%26crop%3Dsmart%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3Df41aaadcebd9989724d77d611b76e113ca30858b https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.... A disappointing thing about this is that someone changed the design, to this, to be more fragile and non-ThinkPad. In this way, it's similar to the series of regression changes to the keyboard, and now the TrackPoint.
