At the heart of the X1 Carbon Gen 12 lies the Intel Core Ultra 7 155U processor. This "Ultra" series CPU is a game-changer, integrating a dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for AI acceleration. This means tasks like noise cancellation, video effects in conferencing, and content creation are offloaded to the NPU, providing faster, more power-efficient performance and significantly extending battery life during sustained AI workloads. With 12 Cores and a Max Turbo of 4.8GHz, it delivers exceptional responsiveness for everything from complex spreadsheets to heavy-duty business applications.
Supreme Multitasking and Speed
This configuration comes equipped with a generous 32GB of cutting-edge LPDDR5x RAM operating at a blazing 6400MHz. This ample, high-speed memory is soldered to the system board to maintain the laptop's thin profile, ensuring you can run multiple resource-intensive applications, browser tabs, and virtual machines simultaneously without slowdown. Complemented by a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, you’ll experience instantaneous boot-up times, lightning-fast application loading, and vast storage for all your critical data with enhanced security features (Opal 2.0).
Ultra-Portable Design with an Elite Display
The legendary ThinkPad X1 Carbon design continues its tradition of extreme portability. Constructed from a robust yet lightweight mix of carbon fiber and magnesium, it starts at a mere 1.08 kg (2.37 lbs) and is incredibly thin at less than 15mm. Its signature Black finish gives it a professional, understated look.
The 14-inch WUXGA (1920x1200) IPS display features a modern 16:10 aspect ratio, providing more vertical screen real estate for documents and web browsing. With 400 nits of brightness and 100% sRGB color accuracy, the anti-glare panel delivers crisp, vibrant visuals that are also certified Eyesafe® for reduced blue light emissions, making long work sessions easier on your eyes.
Enhanced User Experience and Collaboration
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 redesign focuses on the user experience. The iconic TrackPoint and TrackPad have been refined, with a larger TrackPad for improved navigation. The legendary ThinkPad Keyboard now features tactile markings for accessibility and moves the Fingerprint Reader (F.Pr) into the power button for faster, more secure sign-in via Windows Hello.
For communication, the laptop features a new Communications Bar housing an FHD 1080p + IR camera with a physical privacy shutter. Combined with dual 360-degree microphones, Dolby Voice®, and Dolby Atmos® speakers, it provides a superb collaboration platform, ensuring your calls are crystal clear and you’re always presented perfectly.
Enterprise-Grade Security and Reliability
Running on Windows 11 Pro, the laptop is ready for business environments with enhanced security and management features. In addition to the Fingerprint Reader, the IR camera enables facial recognition (Windows Hello). Built to meet stringent MIL-SPEC 810H standards, this laptop is tested for durability in extreme conditions. The 3-Year Warranty provides peace of mind and commitment to long-term reliability.
