We also like its quad speakers and long battery life which lasted 15 hours and 39 minutes during testing. We gave the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 a 4.5 out of 5-star rating and our coveted Editor’s Choice award. At a weight of 2.5 pounds and 12.4 x 8.7 x 0.6-inches in dimensions, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 is ever-so-portable. It’s on par with Asus ExpertBook B9450 (2.2 pounds, 0.6 inches), HP Elite Dragonfly (11.9 x 7.8 x 0.6 inches, 2.5 pounds) and 13-inch MacBook Pro (12 x 8.4 x 0.6 inches, 3.1 pounds).
