Best Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon keyboards: Logitech, Razer and more

Lenovo offers some of the best keyboards on its laptops, especially when it comes to the Thinkpad series. They’re great for typing as the keys feel more ‘clicky’ and have more travel when compared to keyboards on other notebooks like the XPS 13 or any of the MacBooks. The newly launched ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 is a fine example, as it includes an excellent keyboard that’s well built, accurate, and offers key travel of 1.5mm.
