Lenovo revealed four new additions to its ThinkPad range today, one of which is the thinnest ThinkPad it’s ever created.
ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga Gen 1
That ultra-slim ThinkPad, which you can see in the image above, is the ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga Gen 1, and it’s a mere 11.5mm thick. The thinness doesn’t mean Lenovo has skimped on features, though. The fact that it’s a Yoga means the hinge rotates 360 degrees, turning this 2.54-pound X1 from a laptop into a tablet “and everywhere in between.”
Inside you’ll find an 11th-generation Intel Core processor up to Core i7 vPro, coupled with up to 16GB of LPDDR4x RAM, a 1TB PCIe SSD, and Windows 10 Pro. The display is a 3:2 aspect ratio 13.5-inch 2K Dolby Vision touch screen. In terms of ports, Lenovo included two Thunderbolt 4, USB-C, and a 3.5mm audio jack, and the 44.5-Whr battery offers just shy of 11 hours between charges. Wi-Fi 6 and 5G are also supported depending on your chosen configuration.
ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9
Next up is the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9. It’s Lenovo’s answer to the perfect business laptop, offering a 14-inch 16:10 aspect ratio display in either full HD or Ultra HD configurations complete with low blue light output to help with long work sessions. Lenovo also moved to a rear heat venting system so the laptop (and your hands) should stay cool.
Up to an 11th-gen Core i7 vPro can be configured with up to 32GB of LPDDR4x 4,266MHz RAM, a 2TB PCIe Gen4 PCIe SSD, and optional Wi-Fi 6 and 5G. It’s Intel Evo certified, includes a power-on touch fingerprint reader, human presence detection, dTPM 2.0 chip, and a privacy screen option along with webcam privacy shutter. Audio on video calls should be nice and clear thanks to the inclusion of Dolby Voice, and those calls can last a long time due to the 57-Whr battery offering up to 16 hours between charges.
ThinkPad X12 Detachable
The ThinkPad X12 Detachable Gen 1 is for those who need the flexibility of a tablet and laptop in an ultraportable form factor, but want clear separation between the two. It consists of a 12.3-inch IPS FHD+ tablet equipped with up to an 11th-gen Core i7 vPro chip, 16GB of LPDDR4x RAM, and a 1TB NVMe SSD. The 42-Whr battery offers just shy of 10 hours of battery life.
A detachable folio keyboard can be used to turn the X12 into a laptop and comes complete with backlit keys and a TrackPoint. There’s also the option of using the magnetic Lenovo Precision Pen with Tilt for drawing directly on the Gorilla Glass 5-protected screen. The keyboard can also help protect the display when not in use.
ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6
Finally, we have the ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6. This redesigned business Yoga has an increased screen-to-body ratio and a dual fan rear venting Intelligent Thermal Solution to keep the convertible cool whether you’re using it as a laptop or tablet.
Inside the aluminum body you’ll find up to an 11th-gen Core i7 vPro processor, 32GB of LPDDR4x RAM, a 2TB PCIe Gen4 SSD, and a 57-Whr battery offering up to 15 hours between charges. The display is a 16:10 aspect ratio 14-inch FHD+ or UHD resolution touch screen boasting 100% Adobe sRGB, and up to 500 nits of brightness. On the UHD version, there’s support for HDR400.
Lenovo included a Dolby Atmos speaker system, Dolby Voice, and four 360-degree microphones, making this a great choice for video calls. In terms of connectivity, there are two Thuderbolt 4 ports, two USB 3.2 Type A, a HDMI 2.0, and 3.5 mm audio jack. Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi 5, and LTE 4G and 5G options are available.
The ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga can be ordered this month starting at $1,899. The ThinkPad X12 Detachable is also available this month priced at $1,149 upwards. The ThinkPad X1 Carbon arrives in February starting at $1,429, and the ThinkPad X1 Yoga is also available from February starting at $1,569.
