Pick the ThinkPad X9 14 Gen 1 if the display is what you stare at all day — refresh rate, brightness, or sharpness is where the difference will be most visible. Its strongest claims are refresh rate, thunderbolt ports, panel type, among others. The single most decisive one: Refresh rate — 100.00% more. 120 Hz vs 60 Hz.
