MODERATORS
Doesn't the reduced thickness also contribute to higher Temps and the jet engine fans?
If it was a bit thicker, some of the empty space could be used to push air through and cool the components better.
But if it were like that, how would it die after two years of updates, necessitating you to buy a new one, huh?
Checkmate poors!
Not really.
My ThinkPad X1 Carbon is around 2.5 lb. So thin that sometimes I forget it's in my backpack.
Battery life is at least 5 hours when working but when I'm just reading and doing light things can be way more. (With Linux).
I barely notice the fan even when transcoding and CPU at peak.
