I bought the ThinkPad X1 Carbon (6th Gen) with the following specs:

Intel® Core™ i7-8550U (1.80GHz, up to 4.0GHz with Turbo Boost, 8MB Cache)
16 GB (Onboard)
256 GB SSD PCIe
14" FHD (1920 x 1080) IPS anti-glare, 300 nits

Have you tried Elementary or Mint recently? I've been really impressed with Elementary - including in those specific areas you brought up as common deficits in Linux distributions.

I think the key is for distributions to focus on specific niches that Windows and Mac fail at and based on their values, business models, etc. will always fail at.
