Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 14 Inch Intel Ultra 7 155U 4.8GHz 16GB RAM 512GB SSD Touchscreen Laptop with Windows 11 Pro
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 laptop still uses carbon fibre for the chassis - but better yet some of that carbon fibre is recycled from post-industrial remnants and is used along with 90% recycled magnesium. Plus, the chassis, the battery pack, the speaker enclosure, and the power adaptor all include recycled post-consumer content. And we don’t stop there. The packaging is 100% plastic-free and comprised in part with rapid-renewable materials made from bamboo-sugar-cane fibre.
Elevated Performance & Lasting Battery:
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 boasts the world’s first laptop powered by Intel Core Ultra processors, making it ideal for creating and on-the-go productivity. Enjoy optimised performance with workloads pushed to dedicated AI engines, including the low-power neural processing unit (NPU) for sustained tasks and resiliant battery life. Go ahead, turn on auto-framing or low-light enhancement for your online meetings, even when unplugged! The Intel vPro Evo Edition, for multilayer security, professional-grade performance, reliable stability, and complete management for IT.
Raise the Bar on Collaboration:
A Communications Bar, positioned at the top of the display for easy laptop opening. Additionally, two 360-degree mics with AI-based noise cancellation, combined with Dolby Voice and Dolby Atmos deliver a superb audio experience. Plus, the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 is Zoom-certified. Make calls, listen to music, or watch a video and enjoy the sublime sounds.
You Spoke. We Listened: We’ve Redesigned Our Legendary Keyboard:
Our redesigned ThinkPad keyboard now includes tactile markings to help people with visual impairments more easily find the correct keys. We’ve moved the fingerprint reader to the keyboard, resulting in a larger sensor for a better experience. Plus, our TrackPad is even larger now, at 120mm. Our beloved red TrackPoint still lets you navigate - but with a double tap, it opens the ThinkPad TrackPoint Quick Menu to optimise audio-visuals, set alerts against muting, and even take notes with the Dictation Toolbar for handy speech-to-text transcription.
A Feast for the Eyes:
Razor-thin bezels frame a stunning optional 14″ 2.8K OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate. Sharp, clear details make content pop and colours more vibrant than ever on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12 laptop, especially when driven by high-performance Intel Arc graphics. But perhaps the best part yet? It’s easy on the eyes with Eyesafe certification, so you can put in the long hours to meet your deadlines and not worry about eye-strain and fatigue.

What our customers say
I totally recommend Elive, great online shopping, extremely good customer service and product received promptly. Thank you for the great service
Keep it up guys!
From KawaKawa
I highly recommend Elive for your tech needs, more so than other popular vendors. I cannot sing their praises highly enough, regarding the level of customer service and support I’ve experienced with them. I was in the market for a NAS (first time user of such a device) and Scott was so professional, helpful and forthcoming with advice, even before I was committed to purchasing from Elive. I informed him I was just “looking around” and would call back at a later time. My previous experience has been that would often get minimal assistance in such a situation, but not with Scott. He spoke with me at length for over 15 min on the phone, even looking up information online for me while we spoke, so as to better answer all my newbie questions. His advice was invaluable and given the reasonable pricing of the product, I subsequently decided to purchase from them. There was a minor hiccup post delivery, but the Elive team proactively and immediately helped resolve it, within a day. I’m very pleased with my Synology NAS (Scott’s advice helped me choose the exact product/model for my needs). My experience with other tech vendors (including a very popular one) has often been fair to average, so it’s particularly refreshing to be thoroughly satisfied with my entire dealings with Elive.
