This Laptop's Sure to please
Lenovo's new thinkpad X1 extreme has been designed for road office warriors who also want to have fun apart from working. It's been further enhanced from the previous model with the concept of ”work hard, play harder”.
The ThinkPad XI Extreme fea- tures a large 15.6-inch display with high resolution and becomes first in 0 the renowned series equipped with a graphic engine from Nvidia to let you play graphics-intensive games as well. With a powerful processor, a gen- erous amount of working memory and plenty of fast storage, the X1 Extreme is capable of handling data- intensive workloads, video and photo editing, graphics rendering, and vir- tual and mixed-reality experiences. It's a strong performer in multiple fields such as education, training, healthcare and modelling.
Like its predecessors, the ThinkPad X1 Extreme is very tough too. Its chassis is made of four layers ofreinforced carbon fibre formingthe top cover structure, including a core layer that absorbs shocks. And with so much power on tap generating extra heat, a new aluminium-alloy bottom cover keeps itrunning cool by dissipating the heat more efficiently.
Like all ThinkPads, the X1 Extreme is tested against 12 military- grade requirements and more than 200 quality checks to ensure it can operate in extreme conditions Lenovo says the X1 Extreme under- goes some ofthe most stringent prod- uct testing in the industry. It says the laptop has been tested in the arctic wilderness and desert dust storms, from zero gravity to spills and drops. The one I got my hands on was powered by fast 8th Generation Intel Core i7-8850H 2.6GHz and was equipped with 64 gigabytes of DDR4 2,666MHz working memory or RAM and two SSD (Solid State Drive), each 512GB.
The graphics horsepower comes from Nvidia GeForce 1050Ti with 4GB of GDDR5 video memory. The X1 Extreme runs on the Windows 10 Pro 64-bit operating system The one I got to test came with a 4K UHD touchscreen display with 3,840x2160-pixel resolution. The display was very bright with 400 nits and 100 per cent compatible with Adobe 8+2-bit colour depth, so it's very good for photo editing. The display has Dolby Vision tech- nology, making the laptop great for watching 4KHDR YouTube clips and movies streamed from Netflixor iflix. The laptop also has Dolby Audio Premium for better movie sound.
effects. When connected to headphones you can also enjoy Dolby Atmos multi- channel sound effects. With its thin and light design, the X1 Extreme allows you to have work- spaces anywhere, from home to office, coffeeship and on a plane. It's18.7mm thin and weighs 1.8 kilograms. You get up to 15 hours of battery life, so you can work and play longer on the go. Rapid Charge will then refuel the X1 Extreme up to 80 per centinjust 60 minutes for more work or play time,
The touchscreen capability brings voice-control features with Cortana and Amazon Alexa offering a new dimension to PC interaction. With Cortana Premium, you can speak commands from across the room. The integrated 360-degree far- field microphones ensure your voice carries its weight. For example, you can wake up your laptop with a sim- ple phrase and quickly and easily find files and calendar events. You can even put your system into standby mode to improve battery perform- ance.
During the test, I found the X1 Extreme handled business applica- tions very fast. The laptop started up and shut down instantly. Photo edit ing was done fast and it played games and HD videos smoothly The X1 Extreme is also built for expansion, with two USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports on its left side. Each onecan simultaneously support high-resolution displays and high performance data devices. So the XI Extreme supports up to four inde- pendent displays making working with complex computations,

The laptop also comes with fast 802.11ac 2x2 (MIMO) network con- nection to allow you stream 4K movies from the Internet when con- nected to a fast MIMO wireless router. Italso supports Bluetooth 5.0 wireless connections. For security, the X1 Extreme comes with a match-on-chip touch finger- print reader on the right side of the keyboard The Lenovo ThinkPad XI Extreme has a starting price of Bt79,990, depending on the configuration of CPU, memory, storage and type of display.
