Grabbed Lenovo Yoga Slim 9i for $1100 open box excellent.
Slim 9i has best in class 3840x2400/120Hz/750 nits display and bigger battery, while X1 is 20% lighter with gen 5 SSD.
Is X1 Carbon worth extra $400 and why are they so expensive?

I prefer the cheaper 15" Yoga Slim 7i Aura Edition with 32GB RAM/1TB (you can upgrade SSD). The screen is not OLED but side-by-side my OLED laptop, it's hard to tell the difference with the great glass screen on the 7i. I think open-box excellent on BB is around $900.

That's why I am trying to understand the appeal of X1 carbon for $1500+ vs Yoga Slim 9i

Im still gonna buy 3-5 year old thinkpads for a couple hundred bucks and be pretty happy with it, but theres not a single windows laptop I've seen that makes spending this much worth it.
Maybe the snapdragon thinkpads will eventually come close to the performance and cooling of a mac, but im not gonna hold my breath. Its like every windows laptop is borderline cheap chinese crap.
