Current models with 16:10 screens?
I'll be in the market next year for a replacement for my X270, and hope to buy a machine with a 16:10 screen. I've been focusing more on older models than new ones, and can't find a clear list of current models with 16:10 screens. I see that the X13 Gen 2 has 16:10, and the X1 Carbon Gen 9 (too expensive for me to consider). Is there anything else I should be looking at? Thanks for any information.
Re: Current models with 16:10 screens?
X1 Nano is 16:10
I know nothing, but I would expect that next year more of the lineup moves back to 16:10. Hopefully the T and P-series.

Re: Current models with 16:10 screens?
Ah, I should have found that for myself. Thank you!
Re: Current models with 16:10 screens?
To add to the list on The Verge, the newest X1 Extreme Gen 4 and P1 Gen 4 machines have 16" diagonal screens and are both 16:10, with two choices of screens:
WQUXGA (3840 x 2400) IPS
WQXGA (2560 x 1600) IPS
And the X1 Carbon Tablet 3rd Gen has a 13" diagonal 3:2 screen:
QHD+ (3000 x 2000) IPS
All three of these models are on good sale prices for consumers right now. I now have one of these X1 Extremes and two of these X1 Carbon Tablet 3rd gens.

Re: Current models with 16:10 screens?
Thank you - and I hope this question isn't bad thread-drift: but does anyone have views on the two different resolutions? Is the higher-resolution actually usable? I assume you expand the fonts, etc., but I'm not sure that all applications can handle this.
Re: Current models with 16:10 screens?
Higher res is usable with scaling applied. The higher res screens often offer more brightness and better colors, too, but higher resolution results in a shorter battery life.
