I have the OG X1C (i7/8/256). I got a free battery swap included in my purchase, and the guy who came out had it done quite quickly.
The 2012 is still going pretty well for me and quite useful as my #2 dev machine. I have a much higher powered desktop. I'd like a new X1C, but won't replace it until it breaks - and currently it looks like I better not hold my breath for that to happen; it's holding up incredibly well.
How's that for reducing waste; buying top spec laptops and making them last not 2, not 3 but 7 years and going.
