Lenovo upgrades ThinkPad lineup with Intel; X1 Extreme Gen 3 starts at $1,749

lenovo thinkpad x1 extreme gen 2 review

Lenovo just refreshed to its mobile workstation lineup, which includes the ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 3 laptop and the company's ThinkPad P series. In total, five ThinkPad mobile workstation models are getting the upgrade to the latest Intel 10th-generation processors and Nvidia graphics, and you'll be able to pick one up next month in July when they become available.

If you value a balance between productivity and mobility, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme will be the model you'll want. Boasting a similar silhouette from the iconic ThinkPad X1 Carbon series, the third-generation Extreme model comes with a slightly larger 15.6-inch display in various configurations ranging from a standard FHD panel to a 4K OLED touchscreen model that supports HDR 500 True Black. And at just 0.72-inches thick, the 3.75-pound Extreme looks more like a standard Ultrabook than a workstation, but don't let that fool you.

Intel unveiled its experimental new Lakefield processors last year, and now the company has announced plans to launch them in devices this year. The five-core Lakefield CPU will power traditional power-efficient laptops like Samsung's Intel variant of the Galaxy Book S, which is launching this month, and exciting dual-screen form factors like Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Fold, slated to arrive later this year.

Lakefield will be available in Core i5-L16G7 and Core i3-L13G4 variants, each utilizing Intel's Hybrid Technology. "Hybrid" means it uses both a 10nm Sunny Cove core for heavy workloads and four low-powered Tremont cores designed to extend battery life for less demanding tasks.

Lenovo’s new ThinkPad laptops offer choice of Intel or AMD hardware

lenovo announces new thinkpad l x and t models for 2020 02 x13 yoga black hero front facing

Lenovo has refreshed a few of its ThinkPad lines heading into March 2020, and it's not just the machines themselves that have received a refresh. It's also the naming scheme, which Lenovo hopes is easier to follow and keeps things clearer as it announces revised models in the future.

The ThinkPads being refreshed include the T, X, and L lines, leaving the higher-end X1 line alone for the moment. To make things simple, the naming convention simply appends the screen size to the series, e.g., the T14 is the 14-inch T-series. The new models will be designated as Gen 1, and like the X1 series will be updated by generations from here on out.
