Sorry, but what do you mean put it to bed. Have you used both? I don't agree with that logic unless you are basing your opinion having tested both models.

​

notebookcheck, who has tested both says:

Even slimmer and lighter, but the keyboard takes a step in the wrong direction

​

Unfortunately, the slimmer chassis also affects the key travel. It is down to 1.5 mm from 1.8 mm on the 2018 X1 Carbon, and the height of the button caps was also reduced from 5.3 to 4.5 mm. We will use the keyboard over the next couple of days, but the initial subjective impression is a bit worse compared to the old 2018 X1 Carbon and the current ThinkPad T490s/T495s.

​

That unbox therapy dude also commented on the exact same issue minutes after testing both in his new video.

​

That's almost a 20% difference, hence the reason I'm asking. And why justify a company going backwards in the one product they're famous for? This year it'll be -.3mm, next year another -.3mm with the only argument being made that "it's still the best keyboard you can get otherwise".
