Surprisingly, Lenovo also allows you to configure this laptop with up to 32GB LPDDR4x RAM and up to 1TB PCIe SSD.
ThinkPad X13s comes with a communications bar with a 5MP camera with AI-based auto framing plus IR camera option for Windows Hello and standard triple-array microphones to deliver intelligent noise suppression during calls.
What they are saying:
“Protection from advanced attacks is a top business priority for today’s hybrid workforce. No matter where work takes place, Windows is designed to offer protection from the chip to the cloud. We are proud to have integrated the Microsoft Pluton security architecture with Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 compute platform on ThinkPad X13s. This integration will add even more security for identities, data and applications on Windows 11 PCs.” – David Weston, Director of Enterprise and IS Security, Microsoft.
