This.

I love my current one to bits (X1c 7th gen) - almost weightless, sturdy, excellent battery life, excellent connectivity, wonderful keyboard.

Oh, and the 1080 screen, which isn't great, but did help improve battery life significantly over the other offerings. I get a full work day out of mine without a charge, which is most useful whenever I'm in the field.

I have 4 of them for family members. Myself uses Dell XPS15 but it's from the employer. I will get myself a Carbon X1 more likely for personal usage.

Lightweight, robust, powerful enough for development and daily use, we had them for a few years, no complain so far.
