Same procedure as every year: A new year has arrived, CES in Las Vegas is underway and Lenovo launches a new version of its ThinkPad X1 Carbon. Since 2014, Lenovo has announced a new X1 Carbon at CES every year and they are not gonna stop in 2019, because the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is a very popular business-laptop. It is also one of the most well-known models of the ThinkPad-lineup and one of the more expensive ones.

The new Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 2019 is not just merely a CPU-update – although of course, the newest Intel Whiskey Lake processors are included. For the first time since 2017, Lenovo introduces a new chassis to its high-end ultraportable line. This enables various changes that weren't have been possible with a simple platform-update. Of course, the newest version of the ThinkPad X1 thinner & lighter than the previous one, with a thickness of just 14.95 mm and a weight of 1.11 kg (X1 Carbon 2018: 15.95 mm / 1.13 kg). Meanwhile, the port selection remains unchanged, the new X1 Carbon 2019 still sports full-size HDMI as well as two USB A ports, different from the likes of the Dell XPS 13 9370 or Macbook Air 2018.
