The X1C is very comfortable to type on and I can blaze along with minimal errors. The X!C flat out demolishes the KB on the Macbook Pro. All in all they are fairly close in most benchmarks but the X1C gets the edge for me at least as it just feels smoother and snappier than the macbook Pro did. Those are just a few and I could have gone on. None of that on the X!C under Windows 10 or Ubuntu. ![]() On my Macbook Pro I would often get the dreaded beachball and the transitions and animations would sometimes lag.

The X1 Carbon demolishes the Macbook Pro. The Macbook Pro weighs about 3 pounds while the X!C weighs in at about 2.50 pounds. The X1C, while maintaining similar build quality is also almost a half a pound lighter. It’s clean and sexy looking! You can’t go wrong with either.

I sold it and recently purchased a Lenovo X1 Carbon 5th Gen (2017). I had the Macbook Pro nTB for about 3 months after it was initially released.
