I'd look at the Xeon Lenovo machines (I think it was P series I was window shopping), Asus for design/gaming (their dual screen models are so nice in person, I found them to be slimmer than I expected), and Dell for something really solid/mass produced.

Essentially... Xeon Lenovo for "ultra enterprise", Asus for speed/looks/features, Dell for a "good laptop".

My first gen X1 carbon has been brilliant. It’s dated but I still use it for some things. Had run Linux and FreeBSD without issues over the years.
