Ready-to-work ultraportable

This new Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen laptop ships with Windows 10 Pro, an Intel Core i7-8550U processor, 8 GB of LPDDR3 memory and a 2 TB NVMe PCIe SSD. The 14.0" FHD IPS display shows 1920 x 1080 resolution without touch input. Weighing between 2 and 2.9 lbs, it includes a fingerprint reader, ThinkPad UltraNav touchpad, webcam, Bluetooth 4.1 and four USB ports.

Suits mobile professionals; not for memory upgraders

The carbon-fibre chassis passes 12 military-grade tests and over 200 quality checks, making it reliable for frequent travel and IT-managed fleets. Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C adds 40 Gbps data and charging flexibility. Because the 8 GB of LPDDR3 is soldered, buyers who need more memory or user-replaceable RAM should look elsewhere.

Soldered 8 GB LPDDR3 decides fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the fixed 8 GB LPDDR3 configuration, which cannot be increased after purchase. If your workload fits within that capacity, the quad-core i7-8550U up to 4.0 GHz, 2 TB NVMe storage and lightweight 14" chassis deliver a complete, secure Windows 10 Pro package.
