Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5 ultrabook

This new ultrabook targets professionals who need a light 14.0" device with a carbon-fibre chassis and a fingerprint reader. It ships with Windows 10 Pro and an Intel Core i7-7500U processor reaching 3.5 GHz. The 8 GB of memory is soldered and cannot be upgraded.

2 TB NVMe storage and 8 GB memory headroom

The 2 TB NVMe drive provides ample space for large project files and local databases. Eight gigabytes of RAM handles typical office multitasking and light virtualisation, but memory-intensive workloads such as video editing or heavy container use will exhaust the fixed capacity.

Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C decides compatibility

Two Thunderbolt 3 ports deliver up to 40 Gbps for data, charging and dual 4K video through a single USB-C connector. Buyers who need Thunderbolt 3 docking or external GPU support are covered; those requiring newer Thunderbolt 4 certification or additional legacy ports must look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will the USB-C charging port on this ThinkPad X1 Carbon 5 work with my older USB-A chargers using an adapter?

The laptop charges through its USB-C port with Thunderbolt 3 support up to 40 Gbps; legacy USB-A chargers cannot supply power through that port even with a passive adapter.

How can I confirm the 2 TB NVMe SSD and 8 GB RAM are recognised after first boot?

Open Windows 10 Pro Settings > System > About to see the installed 8 GB memory, then check Disk Management where the 2 TB PCIe SSD will appear as the primary drive.

Does the box include a Thunderbolt 3 cable for docking or is only the power adapter supplied?

The package contains the laptop with its 14 inch FHD IPS display, fingerprint reader and UltraNav touchpad plus the USB-C power adapter; a Thunderbolt 3 cable for 40 Gbps data or video is not included.
