On the occasion of the 30th anniversary celebration of ThinkPad, Lenovo officially released a new generation of folding screen notebooks ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022, ThinkPad new Z series notebooks Z13/Z16, ThinkPad X13s.
As a very disruptive and innovative laptop , ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 adheres to the three brand genes of "technology innovation, craftsmanship and quality, and excellent experience". With a new folding structure design and flexible and changeable usage mode, it fully adapts to more diverse application scenarios in the future, achieving a dual leap in productivity efficiency and experience.
Folding technology innovation, leading the future transformation of the industry
Review the 30-year brand development history of ThinkPad, and launched countless classic models and innovative technologies, from the stunning ThinkPad 701c butterfly machine to the ThinkPad 570 nicknamed "Transformers", from the world's first ThinkPad TransNote with a handwriting board and touch screen notebook, to the world's first ThinkPad X41t with a rotatable screen, ThinkPad has been passed down from generation to generation and has been continuously improved, and has been loved and talked about by countless people.
Now, with the new release of ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 folding screen notebook, ThinkPad has once again set off a wave of industrial transformation. The ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 pioneered the innovation of water droplet structural hinges to achieve a seamless experience of screen closure. In addition, through the movable double-layer skeleton design of the inner and outer double-layer skeleton, the shear stress generated during folding is greatly offset, so that the screen can still remain as mirror-like after repeated opening and closing. All the new structural designs are changing the user experience and affecting users' new understanding of future notebook products. ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 shows a new realm of laptop evolution with brand new technology.
In addition, the ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 folding screen notebook has also achieved a comprehensive "evolution" in body thickness. It is only 17.4mm after folding. It is remade from recycled materials and is covered with nylon material. It is combined with carbon fiber to form a sturdy body, which has both environmental protection and sturdy characteristics. The whole machine is thinner, portable and beautiful.
comprehensive performance leap, helping to release efficient productivity
As digital transformation continues to deepen, hybrid office scenarios have become the mainstream working method at present. The ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 is equipped with the 12th generation Intel Core i7 processor, which can help users to cope with work needs in multiple scenarios with higher efficiency. With the dual battery design, the battery life of the laptop has increased to 11 hours, allowing users to maintain working energy at all times. In addition, ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 is equipped with up to 32GB of LPDDR5 memory and 1TB NVMe 4.0 solid-state hard drive , which brings a fast data throughput rate and can effectively ensure the smooth operation of the system. The device will not stutter during the simultaneous processing of multi-tasks, and it will also be more efficient when transmitting large-capacity files.
The powerful hardware configuration must be matched with an efficient cooling system. ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 has created a "graphite bridge + immortal wing" cooling system, which allows heat to be conducted between the B and C surfaces of the notebook. The "immortal wing" at the bottom axis can form a complete heat flow channel in the middle of the screen, and then it is combined with the metal magnesium frame with heat conduction to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the body, so that the ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 remains stable for a long time, thus effectively helping to release efficient productivity.
multi-mode switching, enable unlimited business scenarios
Faced with the continuous changes in user usage scenarios, the new ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 creates a variety of forms and modes. Through deep adaptation with Mode Switcher 2.0 software, the task interface can be flexibly displayed in full screen or split screen state, and can help users complete their work efficiently in the most efficient way in different business scenarios.
At the same time, ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 creates a full-size magnetic Bluetooth keyboard with tracking point buttons, force feedback trackpad and fingerprint recognition, providing traditional, standing, horizontal, mobile and other mode designs. There are also familiar small red dots on the keyboard and vertical large-screen applications, allowing users to work on desktop in traditional notebook form, but also gain a user experience beyond tablets in mobile office. In addition to the dedicated backlit keyboard , the new digital stylus will also bring a new touch and handwriting experience. The accessory will be purchased according to different needs of personal use scenarios.
In addition, ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 has two versions, Wi-Fi and 5G, which ensures high-speed network connection in different environments, helps users break through network constraints, and can achieve seamless switching between diverse office scenarios.
ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 is exploring the cutting-edge of technology, deeply implementing the concept of environmental protection, remade from recycled materials into nylon material covering, and combined with carbon fiber to form a solid body, with excellent touch, achieving high-end and beautiful appearance while bringing reliable protection to the whole machine. In addition, the product packaging is also made of environmentally friendly bamboo fiber , implementing the concept of green environmental protection in every detail of the product.
breaks the boundaries between thinking and vision, empowers business users to flexibly respond to changing challenges, cross-ethnic folding screen laptop ThinkPad X1 Fold 2022 adheres to the brand concept of "taking thinking about the era of evolution" and interprets the new future of productivity transformation with technological innovation.
