New laptop time. Thinkpad recommendations?

My lappy has bitten the dust, and I'm in the market for a laptop. I'm thinking about going Thinkpad.

I only plan on this being for web browsing, text editing, coding, etc. Any gaming is done on my desktop.

What would be a good Thinkpad model? I do t mind getting an older/refurbished one. Haven't been on the laptop market in nearly 8 years, so I don't know what to look for anymore

I've been on this hunt lately as well, but because I want to believe there could be a suitable option for a Linux tablet ...

Regardless, for just a new thinkpad the X1 carbon has remained a solid choice for all around work-flows (research, student, development, business, etc.)

The X1 Carbons are great ultralights. I've had 2 and both still running strong.
