FHD IPS Multi-Touch Display
This refurbished ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen is equipped with the FHD IPS multi-touch panel — one of four display options Lenovo offered on this model. The 14-inch 1920×1080 touchscreen delivers 300 nits brightness, 170° viewing angles and responsive 10-point multi-touch input, adding tablet-like interaction to the renowned ThinkPad keyboard and TrackPoint experience. Ideal for annotating documents, navigating presentations and general touch-based navigation alongside traditional keyboard and trackpad use.
Nearly 20 Hours Battery Life
The X1 Carbon 6th Gen was awarded MobileMark 2014 battery life of up to 19.3 hours — one of the highest ratings ever recorded for a business ultrabook. In real-world use, the 57Wh battery comfortably delivers two full working days between charges for light to moderate users. Rapid Charge brings the battery to 80% in approximately one hour. This extraordinary battery life, combined with a starting weight of 1.13kg, makes it one of the best travel laptops ever produced.
Carbon Fibre Flagship Build
Lenovo built the X1 Carbon 6th Gen to EPEAT Gold certification and MIL-STD-810G military durability standards. The display cover uses carbon fibre reinforced plastic and GFRP hybrid. At just 15.95mm thin and from 1.13kg, it is lighter than many 13-inch ultrabooks despite its 14-inch touchscreen display.
Thunderbolt 3 and Dual USB-C
Both USB-C ports support Thunderbolt 3 — enabling 40Gbps data transfer, 4K or 5K display output, USB Power Delivery and single-cable ThinkPad docking. HDMI 1.4 provides direct monitor output. The side docking connector supports Lenovo ThinkPad mechanical docking stations. Two USB-A ports (one Always On) and a microSD card reader cover everyday needs. Three independent displays are supported simultaneously.
