While most of the ultrabook manufacturers are opting for thin and light aluminum body, Lenovo tried a new approach with the ThinkPad X1 Carbon by employing a cabon fiber case.

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon has a 14-inch display and sports the latest Intel Ivy Bridge processors.

Details of the models and respective configurations of the ThinkPad X1 Carbon are not complete but here’s the closest picture we can paint.

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon specs:
14-inch LED display @ 1600×900 pixels
Intel Core i5, i7 Ivy Bridge processors
4GB DDR3 RAM
128GB SSD
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n
1 x USB 2.0 port
1 x USB 3.0 port
miniDisplay port
Windows 7

We expect Lenovo to bring this ultrabook to the Philippine slater this year and hopefully price them competitively. Lenovo’s target market for the ThinkPad in the country is mostly the enterprise and Small & Medium Businesses (SMBs) so we don’t see these units in store shelves.

Asus is soon to launch its 1080p IPS display ultrabook with discreet graphics.. It will be interesting to see the response of Lenovo and the others on this.
