Product specifications
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 (14ʺ 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 don €™t stop there. The packaging is 100% plastic-free and comprised in part with rapid-renewable materials made from bamboo-sugar-cane fiber.

Raise the Bar on Collaboration
A Communications Bar, positioned at the top of the display for easy laptop opening, houses two cameras (FHD / infrared (IR)) €” or upgrade to the premium 8MP & IR Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) with Computer Vision €” both options include a webcam privacy shutter. Additionally, two 360-degree mics with AI-based noise cancellation, combined with Dolby Voice and Dolby Atmos deliver a superb audio experience. Plus, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 is Zoom-certified.

You Spoke. We Listened: We €™ve Redesigned Our Legendary Keyboard
Our redesigned ThinkPad keyboard now includes tactile markings to help people with visual impairments more easily find the correct keys. We €™ve 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 / 4.72ʺ. 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.
A Feast for the Eyes
Razor-thin bezels frame an optional stunning 14ʺ 2.8K OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate.
