Laptop Recommendation: Lenovo X1 Carbo vs. Nano

In the market for a new Lenovo Thinkpad. I've been on a 14" T-Series for the last 3-4 years, but I want something lighter this go-around.

Doing a search of recent threads here, the Lenovo X1 Carbon seems to be the gold standard, but the recently released Nano is intriguing. It's got a smaller screen (13" vs 14") and is about 0.4 pounds lighter (2.0 vs 2.4).

Anyone have any experience with the Nano? Is sacrificing an inch of screen size worth the weight savings? Any difference in keyboard feedback?
