Transcript

This laptop costs almost as much as this car. Almost. Yes, this is a brand new Lenovo X1 Carbon that's going for 260,000 Kenyan shillings. One of the most expensive business laptops. It weighs 1kg, lighter than a healthy newborn baby. It has a 2.8K OLED touchscreen display with a refresh rate of 120Hz, that means scrolling through your ex's photos is now smoother on this laptop. A 1080p camera with a privacy shutter, unlike your masking tape covering the webcam. It has a spill resistant backlit keyboard with Dolby speakers embedded beneath the keyboard. The fingerprint scanner is also on the keyboard deck. Has a 65 watts Type-C charger, so iPhone 14 and below, you can surely upgrade your phones now. The battery life is about 6 hours, so that's nothing special. It has all necessary ports, unlike most laptops that come with lots of Type-C ports. Now, this 260,000 laptop has a matte black finish that fills up with fingerprint marks so easily. Also, an unnecessary bump on this end. This particular model comes with an Intel Core 7 chip with 32GB of RAM and 2TB SSD. So, life choices. Lenovo X1 Carbon or a Toyota Vitz?
