Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 (14”) Laptop - 13th Generation Intel® Processor - Black

Takes productivity to the next level

Co-engineered with Intel®, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 meets Intel® Evo™ laptop design requirements, hardware specifications, and key user experience targets for consistent responsiveness, instant wake, all-day battery life, fast charging, and intelligent video conferencing. This Evo-certified device also includes Intel® Unison™ for seamless connectivity with your Android or iOS smart phone for calling, messaging, and file and photo sharing—all done from your laptop.

Collaborating remotely never looked or sounded so good

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 laptop includes a highly functional and stylish Communications Bar, which houses an FHD camera or a hybrid FHD and infrared (IR) camera. Or go big with the FHD / IR mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) webcam with Computer Vision’s added security. And, of course, all cameras include the webcam privacy shutter. What’s more, 4 x 360-degree mics with integrated AI-based noise cancellation and Dolby Voice® deliver superb audio. With the quality of video calls this amazing, you may never want to commute to an office again.

Effortless connection with your phone

With Intel® Unison™, you can put your laptop at the center of all that you do. Wirelessly connect your phone—either Android or iOS—to your ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 laptop. Transfer files quickly and easily, even edit your photos and videos seamlessly on the big screen. Make and answer calls directly from your PC, with full access to your phone’s contact list. You can even receive notifications on your laptop, as well as messaging. No need to switch devices when you can do it all in one place.

Bumps up the coolness factor

The legendary ThinkPad keyboard is designed for ergonomics and comfort—and part of that comfort means improved airflow. The underside of the keys facilitates air intake when in use. Combined with the dual fan and rear venting, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 notebook delivers improved thermals. So whether you’re powering through your day, or your night, or both, the ThinkPad X1 will stay as cool as you are.

Vibrant visuals that suit your needs

No matter how you look at it, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 laptop features stunning displays that meet your workday needs. Whether you require richly detailed graphics with super-high screen resolution, or extra security to combat prying eyes, we’ve got options for you. Ranging from a widescreen ultra extended graphics array (WUXGA) touchscreen to a 2.8K OLED display, to a WUXGA with ePrivacy, all of the 14ʺ panels feature a 16:10 aspect ratio with maximum screen real estate. What’s more, almost all selections include Eyesafe® certification to reduce eye fatigue.

Security that works 24/7

Biometrics provide extra protection on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 system—from the fingerprint reader integrated with the power button to the facial recognition software that works with the IR camera. ThinkShield, our comprehensive suite of security solutions, is integral to all our business laptops. Features like discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) safeguard your critical data with encryption. Presence detection automatically locks your device when you move away, while the optional PrivacyGuard display prevents wandering eyes from seeing what’s on your screen.

Trusted ThinkPad quality

We use the US Department of Defense's MIL-STD 810H standards to create a balance of reliability and durability for our ThinkPad laptops. We test against 12 standards and more than 200 quality checks to ensure they run in extreme conditions. These tests cover harsh variables like Arctic wilderness and desert dust storms, including temperature, pressure, humidity, vibration, and more.

Feel good about the planet

At Lenovo, we take sustainability seriously. We’ve committed to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, making us the world’s first PC and smartphone maker and one of only 139 companies with a net-zero target validated by Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). For the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11, that means low-temp soldering and 90% recycled magnesium on the C cover. We use 98% post-consumer content (PCC) recycled plastic in the speaker enclosure, 25-30% PCC recycled plastic in the battery enclosure, and 90% PCC recycled plastic in the power adapter. Packaging is entirely plastic-free.

From virtual customer service agents to driving loyalty and retention. From leveraging AI to mine customer conversations to delivering a platform for developers. The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 11 raises the bar for interactions with Zoom One, Zoom Spaces, Zoom Contact Center, Zoom IQ for Sales, and Zoom Developers.
