20XW0029MX
Responsiveness reimagined
With the Intel® Evo™ platform, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 laptop delivers a powerhouse combination of performance, responsiveness, battery life, and stunning visuals. With up to 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 vPro® processors, you can count on an exceptional experience, anywhere.
Cool under pressure
The new one-bar hinge, dual fan, and rear venting for an improved Intelligent Thermal Solution mean you can put in long hours on the job, and the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 laptop will stay as cool as you are.
Security integrated seamlessly
With an updated suite of built-in ThinkShield security solutions, safeguards your ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 and your data. Biometrics provide an extra-secure fingerprint reader that is standard and is integrated with the power button—so you can log in and boot up instantaneously. Human-presence detection automatically locks your device when you move away, and in combination with the optional IR camera, it enables zero-touch login even from sleep. Plus, choose the PrivacyGuard display panel to ensure wandering eyes can’t see what’s on your screen.
Vibrant visuals easy on the eyes
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 features a refined 16:10 display with narrow bezels and a rich, high-resolution screen. Choose the UHD+ panel with Dolby Vision™ to improve your viewing experience. Powerful Intel® Iris™ Xe graphics render amazing picture clarity and color accuracy—whether you’re video-conferencing, browsing, or watching media. Not only is this low-power panel energy efficient, but it’s also TÜV Rheinland-certified for reduced blue-light emissions to promote eye-care health.
Enhanced remote collaboration
The Dolby Atmos® Speaker System on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 laptop includes two upward-firing speakers and two downward-firing woofers—this creates an immersive sound experience you’ll enjoy for work and for play. Dolby Voice® and four 360-degree far-field mics combined with a high-definition camera for visual clarity improve remote collaboration and ensure you’re heard loud and clear during calls.
Future-proof
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 laptop offers a true smartphone-like experience in an always-connected PC. Speedy WiFi 6 lets you jump on crowded public platforms fast while avoiding lag-time and buffering. And with the optional 4G / 5G WWAN*, you can enjoy faster, more secure access to your network and uninterrupted video streaming. Stay connected to what matters most, no matter where you are.
Military-grade tough
ThinkPad laptops are tested against 12 military-grade requirements and more than 200 quality checks to ensure they run in extreme conditions. From the Arctic wilderness to desert dust storms, from zero-gravity to spills and drops, you can trust these laptops to handle whatever life throws your way.
