Lenovo Unveils Modular ThinkPad X1 Tablet With Intel Core m7 Processor, 10 Hour Battery, And Rechargeable Active Pen

| Posted on |

Lenovo has unveiled its newly expanded and highly innovative X1 tablet portfolio, featuring new additions such as the adaptable ThinkPad X1 Tablet with its unique modular design; the ThinkPad X1 Yoga with world’s first OLED display; and the thinner and lighter ThinkPad X1 Carbon ultrabook.

The modular design of the ThinkPad X1 Tablet offers unique functionality through simple clip-on optional modules:

  • Need more battery? The Productivity Module increases use up to 15 hours total
  • Ready to present? The Presenter Module includes a pico projector and HDMI port
  • Creating in 3D? Add the 3D Imaging Module with its rear-facing Intel RealSense camera

The full size ThinkPad keyboard with the iconic TrackPoint has three adjustable typing angles and recreates the classic ThinkPad keystroke feel. Keyboard and tablet together weigh just 2.4 pounds for an ultra-light laptop experience, and it is the first Windows tablet with LTE Advanced support for connectivity from virtually anywhere. The ThinkPad X1 Tablet also features a removable rear panel for serviceability and upgrades.

ThinkPad X1 Yoga is very thin at just 0.66 inches and light at 2.8 pounds. It is also the world’s first convertible featuring an optional Samsung OLED display that reproduces rich colors and deeper blacks. With a patented Lift and Lock keyboard that retracts keys in tablet mode, X1 Yoga also features an active pen for highlighting and writing notes directly on webpages using the Microsoft Edge browser. The pen is also housed and charged inside the system so it won’t get lost.

ThinkPad X1 Carbon continues to stand out as the world’s lightest 14-inch business ultrabook, and elegant notebooks available today, and is thinner, lighter and more powerful than ever. Focused on customer-centric design improvements, Lenovo says it listened to customer feedback and made a number of improvements, including more display options, increased memory and storage capacity, improved connectivity and made the X1 Carbon lighter at 2.6 pounds.

With a unique combination of performance, connectivity and security focused features available in all three products, the new ThinkPad X1 family features:

  • Up to 1TB high-density, low-power Samsung M.2 NVMe SSD storage offers speeds up to five times that of standard SATA SSD
  • Ultra-fast enterprise class connectivity with the Qualcomm® Snapdragon X7 LTE modem with 4G LTE Advanced Carrier Aggregation support for up to 300 Mbps download speeds
  • Fast and secure WiGig wireless docking for a cable-free desk environment
  • Touch Fingerprint reader and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security chip for peace of mind
  • Built tough to withstand the rigors of mobile working by passing more than two hundred Lenovo stress tests
  • The ThinkPad X1 family also includes a number of accessories specifically designed to match and enhance the overall user experience:
  • ThinkPad X1 Wireless Touch Mouse is a thin and light dual mode mouse optimized for travel. Flip it over to use the integrated touchpad presenter for easy navigation through slides.
  • The ThinkPad X1 In-Ear Headphones have been optimized by Dolby for the X1 series and engineered with dual drivers to improve phone calls, music and movies.
  • The X1 Sleeve, with its soft-touch interior and easy-to-open magnetic flap, is the perfect transport companion for your X1 Carbon or X1 Yoga.
  • The ThinkPad 65W Micro Adapter is 58 percent smaller and 50 percent lighter than a standard power adapter and is the ideal lightweight travel mate for the ThinkPad X1 Carbon and X1 Yoga.

“Lenovo’s customer-centric engineering focus enables us to design and build products where end-user needs come first. The new X1 family demonstrates our relentless pursuit of innovation that elevates the products above the norm,” says Johnson Jia, senior vice president, Personal Computing Group, Lenovo. “Optimizing our products with unique features and for greater performance, better cloud access and class-leading security and durability will help customers use technology as their secret weapon.”
