Redesigned with collaboration in mind

The 10th generation of our premium ThinkPad X1 Carbon laptop is built on the Intel® Evo platform and powered by up to 12th Gen Intel® Core™ vPro® processors. It still has the legendary ThinkPad keyboard, only now we’ve redesigned the keys to create better airflow, in addition to rear exhaust ventilation. We’ve also transformed the camera into a Communications Bar to improve videoconferencing.
