X1 Series
At the top of the ThinkPad lineup is the X1 series. These are the best of the lightweight ThinkPad laptops, offering long battery life, robust security features, as well as the classic ThinkPad TrackPoint nub in the keyboard. They’re also designed to be sturdy, with Lenovo proudly claiming that these Thinkpads have been taken all over the world (and crucially, survived), including to the top of Mount Everest, to the bottom of the ocean, and even into outer space on the International and Mir Space Stations.
If you like the sound of these premium X1 models, we suggest starting with the X1 Carbon to see how far Lenovo can really push their laptops, and if it’s right for you.
X1 series
The X1 laptops are excellent picks, but those high-end models may be too expensive for the type of laptop you’re looking for. In this case, we recommend checking out some of the X-series — slightly older models that are far more affordable while still offering some of the best features around.
If you like the sound of the X-Series, the best option is the ThinkPad X390. All ThinkPad X series laptops come with Intel processors, speedy fast solid-state-drives, and options for between 4 and 32GB of RAM.
Yoga series
Lenovo also offers Yoga versions of X series devices, including the ThinkPad X1 Yoga. Yoga versions of X series ThinkPads feature a touchscreen and are fully convertible thanks to a 360-degree hinge. That means it can be switched to 4 modes of use — laptop, stand, tablet, or tent mode.
Some Yoga versions also have integrated pens, like the X1 Yoga, which lets you digitally ink on the screen and mark up your PDFs and other documents. The latest versions also offer plenty of power for those who want a versatile 2-in-1 that can handle plenty of office tasks.
T Series
Just below the X series is the T Series. These are traditional clamshell-style ThinkPad laptops focused more on professionals or businesses. Some may also see these devices as alternatives to MacBooks. Current T-series models include the ThinkPad 14-inch T490, ThinkPad T480, and the 15-inch ThinkPad T580. 15-inch versions come with a number pad alongside the main keyboard. Some 14-inch T-series laptops also feature long battery life, with Lenovo promising the T490s can last you 20 hours on a single charge.
T-series ThinkPads also feature options for touchscreens, and a wide range of connectivity options, including USB-C and USB-A ports.
- As with all laptops, think ahead a few years and make sure you get a ThinkPad that’s ready for that future, instead of just right now. That includes school, jobs, entertainment options, family, and much more. Lenovo thinkpad
- There’s a general feeling among the ThinkPad community that models a couple of years older have a more durable design, while current models are a bit easier to break.
This isn’t always the case, but if you want to save and need a tough laptop, it’s okay to go back a couple of years and see what ThinkPads are available. You won’t lose out on too much performance, as long as you stay within a couple of generations.
- If you’re having trouble comparing ThinkPad series, start with screen size. It’s an easy spec to understand, and a great way to narrow down your options based on the type of display you really want to have. thinkpad laptops
