Why Choose This Product?


How Do You Show Respect for the Planet?

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 (14 Intel) laptop still uses carbon fiber for the chassis but better yet some of that carbon fiber is recycled from post-industrial remnants and is used along with 90% recycled magnesium. Plus, the chassis, the battery pack, the speaker enclosure, and the power adapter all include recycled post-consumer content. And we dont stop there. The packaging is 100% plastic-free and comprised in part with rapid-renewable materials made from bamboo-sugar-cane fiber.


Elevated Performance & Lasting Battery

You Spoke. We Listened: Weve Redesigned Our Legendary Keyboard

Our redesigned ThinkPad keyboard now includes tactile markings to help people with visual impairments more easily find the correct keys. Weve moved the fingerprint reader to the keyboard, resulting in a larger sensor for a better experience. Plus, our TrackPad is even larger now, at 120mm / 4.72. Our beloved red TrackPoint still lets you navigate but with a double tap, it opens the ThinkPad TrackPoint Quick Menu to optimize audio-visuals, set alerts against muting, and even take notes with the Dictation Toolbar for handy speech-to-text transcription.


Stand Tough With Battle-Tested ThinkPad

We use the US Department of Defense's MIL-STD 810H to create a balance of reliability and durability for ThinkPad laptops. Meeting or exceeding 12 standards, 26 procedures, and 200+ quality checks ensure that these devices run in extreme conditions, including harsh variables like Arctic wilderness, desert dust storms, extreme temps, pressure, humidity, vibration, and more.


Your Face. Your Fingerprint. Your Fortress.

Biometrics provide extra protection on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 laptop, from the fingerprint reader to facial recognition software. ThinkShield, our comprehensive suite of security solutions, boasts discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) to safeguard critical data with encryption. Plus, AI-powered Intel Threat Detection Technology helps prevent ransomware, cryptojacking, and more. When it comes to security and protecting your assets, weve got you covered!
