In our Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 8 review, we loved its slim, lightweight design and bright, vibrant 1080p display. We gave it the Editor's Choice award for its fast performance and class-leading keyboard. 

The new Carbon X1 Gen 8 looks identical to the Carbon X1 Gen 7. It maintains the same sleek shape and stealthy finish as its predecessor. Just about the only difference is that there's an "X1" stamp under the iconic ThinkPad logo.
