Now: X1 Carbon 1st gen. its tough as old boots and light as a feather. sadly its also pretty old now

Soon: Undecided, was going to be an x1 extreme until they put the price up by £500 for no reason so itll likely be an xps15 or a 13-14" laptop and an eGPU next

> price up by £500 for no reason

The reason is that it's an "extreme" model. It has a better processor and way better graphics card. You can also still get this year's "non-extreme" X1 Carbon, the 6th generation. That's still the same price.

no i mean the X1 extreme was originally £1384 for the base model, then a few weeks ago they increased the price to £1859 for no reason at all (in the US, canada and japan its still around £1400)
