Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 Aura Edition Review

The Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 Aura Edition arrives as a sleek and arguably more modern entry into the brand's longstanding ThinkPad series.

Sleek, lightweight chassis ; Decent power ; Fantastic OLED screen

Meagre port selection against rivals ; Battery life isn't as good as rivals

The Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 Aura Edition makes for a solid Windows ultrabook with decent power, a sublime OLED display and solid battery life. It also looks sleek and is remarkably portable. Just watch out for the meagre port selection against key...

Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 review: an iconic laptop continues to evolve

The Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 is a brand-new addition to the ThinkPad family, with a very un-ThinkPad-like design that nevertheless appeals, not only to businesses.

Solid build quality ; Thin and light ; Good productivity performance ; Great OLED display ; Excellent keyboard and touchpad ; Range of consumer and business features

Battery life isn't great ; Expensive ; Thinness a bit of a gimmick

“The Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 is a well-made ThinkPad that doesn't really look like one.”

Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 Aura Edition Review: No More TrackPoint

Lenovo finally ditches the iconic little red nubbin on this ThinkPad, which raises the question: Is it still a ThinkPad?

Thin and sleek. Great OLED panel. Responsive haptic trackpad. Includes HDMI despite its size.

Too expensive. Not as fast or long-lasting as the competition.

Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 Aura Edition Review

Lenovo targets Apple's MacBooks with an ultraportable work laptop for small offices that can't afford the ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Overall, the ThinkPad X9 14 succeeds in design, pricing, and display quality.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 is a sleeker, more luxurious ThinkPad. However, its performance and battery life are mid-pack.

Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 Gen 1 Aura Edition review: Does it hold up to Lenovo’s best?

Great in some places, a disappointment in others

Bright and vivid OLED display, Sturdy aluminum chassis, Haptic touchpad feels great, Punchy speaker system

Poor price-to-performance ratio, Average battery life, Light on ports

A gorgeous display, sturdy aluminum chassis, and excellent speakers can’t save this Lenovo business laptop from a poor price-to-performance ratio and mediocre battery life.

Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 Gen 1 review – Futuristic Piece of Razor-Thin Metal

The Lenovo ThinkPad X9-14 Gen 1 marks a bold, perhaps even controversial, departure for the storied brand. Yes, the absence of the iconic TrackPoint will undoubtedly be jarring for longtime devotees, signaling a clear shift towards a more modern,...

Stunning, premium, and durable aluminum construction ; Exceptionally thin and lightweight design ; Gorgeous, color-accurate, and PWM-free OLED display (100% sRGB/DCI-P3) ; Outstanding battery life (17+ hours) ; Strong performance with Core Ultra 200...

No iconic TrackPoint (major departure for ThinkPad purists) ; Limited physical ports: No native USB-A or Ethernet (requires adapters/docks) ; CPU runs very hot under sustained heavy load ; Glossy screen is reflective, despite improvements over typical...
