Also, to clean up the design, the screen hinges could be black again, like they were for older X1 Carbon models. For example, we think the big X1 logo on the palmrest is superfluous. With the new ThinkPad Z series, Lenovo has released a competing high-end design - is the X1 Carbon outdated compared with these "new generation" ThinkPads? We would not say that, but there are aspects of the visual design that could be changed. The disadvantage of this type of coating: it is very fingerprint/smudge prone. The chassis is also completely rubberized, which makes the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10 reminiscent of the ThinkPad X300 from the year 2008. It is not the very dark grey used on other 2022 ThinkPads, such as the ThinkPad T14 G3. The X1 Carbon is using a classic ThinkPad design and typical ThinkPad materials - it is completely clad in black, and true black at that. A more detailed description of the chassis and its quality can be found in our comprehensive review of the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9. It is a chassis that is mature enough for everyday use. As the ThinkPad X1 Carbon G9 was a huge redesign, the X1 Carbon G10 is a refresh, which keeps the old design intact. Lenovo uses the same chassis design for at least two generations.
