Extreme reliability you can count on
We use the US Department of Defense's MIL-STD 810H standards to create a balance of reliability and durability for our ThinkPad laptops. We test against 12 standards and more than 200 quality checks to ensure they run in extreme conditions. These tests cover harsh variables like Arctic wilderness and desert dust storms, including temperature, pressure, humidity, vibration, and more.


We take care of security so you can take care of business
The ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 5 laptop features ThinkShield, our built-in suite of security solutions. The match-on-chip fingerprint reader integrated with the power button encrypts your biometric data. Likewise, with the discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM), your critical info remains yours. Plus, the Intel® Hardware Shield, exclusive to the Intel vPro® platform, integrates hardware-based PC protection.


Engineered with one eye on the planet
Even with all its productivity- and creativity-enhancing features, this ThinkPad was designed with the planet in mind. We used recycled post-consumer content (PCC), such as plastic and natural materials, including the speaker enclosure, the battery compartment, and the adapter. It also comes with recycled and/or sustainably forested packaging and recycled PCC cardboard cushioning. Learn more about Lenovo’s goal for a more sustainable planet.
