    Hi everyone,

    I just received my 2014 X1 Carbon and I have noticed that the adaptive display function keys are slightly flickering continuously.

    Does this happen to anyone's keys? I notice it mainly if I pay attention to the keys and it is more noticeable in the webpage/internet function keys than the F keys.

    Is this normal?

    Thanks in advance.

    I never noticed this until you mentioned it. Mine does it too. It is very subtle though, you really have to be staring right at it continuously.

    Thanks for the reply. So I take it this is a normal thing that is a component of the adaptive display? Does anyone's not flicker?
