I personally have a X1 carbon 4th gen (2016) and I just love it. Thinkpads are very good laptops with extreme good consumer support. I've looked on the french lenovo market and could not find E590T, only E590. So I don't know the differences. I'd personally recommend one with the WQHD resolution rather than full hd (2560x1440) because it's just awesome. HTH, -- David
