The black chassis weighs between 2 and 2.9 lbs and integrates a fingerprint reader with match-on-chip anti-spoofing technology. Connectivity includes Bluetooth 4.1, four USB ports and Intel Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C providing 40 Gbps bandwidth for data, video and power delivery. ThinkShutter offers a physical webcam cover for privacy.

UltraNav Input And Legacy OS Ready

The signature ThinkPad UltraNav combines a touchpad and pointing stick for precise navigation without leaving the home row. A backlit keyboard supports low-light work while a 4-in-1 card reader handles common media formats. Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics drive the internal panel and external displays through Thunderbolt 3 or HDMI. The Windows 7 Pro licence suits organisations maintaining validated application stacks that have not yet migrated to newer operating systems.
