ThinkPad X1 Carbon

The X1 Carbon might be the bestselling model in the entire ThinkPad lineup, and it’s certainly one of our enduring favorites. Its 14-inch Full HD multi-touch display and sleek profile (which measures just over 0.6 inches thick when closed) make it a great all-around featherweight machine, while snappy hardware like an Intel Core i5-8250U, 8GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD allow the sixth-gen X1 Carbon to easily meet your everyday work and entertainment needs.

Through the end of Wednesday, the coupon code THINKQUICK shaves $1,160 off the ThinkPad X1’s sticker price, letting you score one for $1,399.

ThinkPad T580

The X-series might be keeping the ThinkPad lineup nicely updated with the latest laptop trends, but for many, nothing beats the classic T-series models like the ThinkPad T580. With a 15.6-inch 1080p screen, this is a more normal-sized laptop for those who aren’t enamored with today’s super-thin ultrabooks (it’s still pretty light and slim, though, at just under 0.8 inches thick). Its 8th-gen Intel Core i5-8250U processor and 8GB of RAM give you the juice your need for a day’s work, and you get a snappy 256GB SSD for some high-speed storage.

The checkout code THINKQUICK knocks almost 50% off the Thinkpad T580 right now, letting you grab one of these no-nonsense workhorse laptops for $999 and save $950 off of its MSRP.

ThinkPad X390 Yoga

Although it still offers more classically inspired ThinkPads like the T-series models, Lenovo has made sure that its flagship laptop line hasn’t remained stuck in the past thanks to cutting-edge designs like the X390 Yoga. This 2-in-1 laptop features a 13-inch Full HD multi-touch display that can fold down flat on its 360-degree hinge, allowing you to use the ThinkPad X390 Yoga laptop as a tablet. This super-flexible design is paired with an Intel i5-8265U CPU, 8GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 256GB SSD.

The ThinkPad X390 goes for $1,859 at Lenovo’s online store, but the promo code THINKQUICK cuts it down to just $999 for a short time and enjoy a nice $860 savings.
