At this year’s Consumer Electronics Show world renown brand Lenovo Dazzles with some great new devices. One of them is the ultra thin and ultra slim Thinkpad X1 Carbon. At just 1.14 kg and 0.62 inches thin is their thinnest notebook yet.
What is great about the X1 Carbon though is that it does not sacrifice performance to achieve this unbelievable design. At 14 inches the display has either an FHD 1920×1080 resolution or WQHD 2560 x 1440 resolution. The graphics are powered with Intel HD Graphics 620. Dolby Premiere Audio is packed into the X1 Carbon as well to match the visuals with the audio.
Despite being this thin the X1 Carbon can hold a processor that is up to an Intel Core vPro i7-7600U. Its system memory of up to 16GB it can also hold up to 1TB for storage. The battery life is also nothing to ignore as it can last up to 15.5 hours, and an hour of charging can restore 80% of power.
The X1 Carbon is still not done yet as it also has the Qualcomm Snapdragon X7 LTE-A. This means not just faster speeds but better connectivity even when wifi is out of range.
Overall the Lenovo X1 Carbon is pretty impressive with putting so much into so little. There is so much more to this machine than just it size, with all those features the Lenovo X1 Carbon looks very promising.
