I jut don't care that much much about color accuracy.

Software availability is worse for me, as ARM still causes problems. The AMD CPU are pretty nice.

The ThinkPad still have some advantages to me. There are some design choices I much prefer. Granted, when recommending to other people, they likely wouldn't value those same things.

I bought a ThinkPad recently, just as I have done for 15+ years now. At the same price point I would say its at least competitive.

But yeah, if Linux on M-Series continues to make progress, maybe I would would consider it. I'm not using MacOS as I daily driver.




The X1 Carbon Aura Edition looks like a nice MBA-class machine, I just wish Lenovo were a bit less stingy on its battery since even the most efficient x86 CPUs are more power hungry than M-series SoCs. They’ve also stated that they don’t intend to support Linux with it which is concerning.
