Lenovo's ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga 5G is a crazy thin Intel-based jaw-dropping convertible PC

Lenovo's ThinkPad line has a long legacy, and with CES 2021, many new refreshes to existing models like the famed X1 Carbon and X1 Yoga.

But Lenovo also has an entirely new model: ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga 5G.

Thin as a tablet, packed with an Intel 11th Gen Core i7 processor, optional 5G connectivity, and a remarkable 3:2 aspect ratio, this 2-in-1 laptop (with an included pen) is the ultimate mobile productivity machine.

ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga 5G Specs and features

As the name implies, Lenovo is using real titanium in this laptop — specifically the lid. It's cool to the touch, very light, but also incredibly resilient. Lenovo also uses its other famed materials like a magnesium chassis with carbon for the lower half.

The result? A 2.54-pound (1.15kg) convertible laptop does everything a Windows computer can do in 2021. It's just a bit over 11mm thin, which means the keyboard deck is actually as thin as an iPhone 12 Mini.

But it's not just thin and light. Lenovo ships the X1 Titanium with up to 11th Gen Intel Core i7 vPro (i7-1160G7), 16GB of RAM, and up to 1TB SSD for storage.

For those who want to be connected all the time, there's an optional Qualcomm Snapdragon X55 5G modem (which falls back to 4G LTE is there is no 5G).

The 13.5-inch display is also attractive as it is a 3:2 aspect, which is like what Microsoft uses in its Surface line. The 2256 x 1504 screen supports Dolby Vision with a decent 450 nits of brightness.

Touch and inking are also supported, with Lenovo tossing in one of its smartpens in the box.

While there are only two Type-C Thunderbolt 4 ports Lenovo adds in a Type-C Ethernet dongle and a larger dongle with extra ports including HDMI and Type-A for expandability.

Like all ThinkPads, there is support for Lenovo's TrackPoint system and familiar smile-keys. While the keyboard is shallow, it's as good as you would expect from Lenovo. The two top-firing speakers with Dolby Atmos are not the most powerful, but considering this laptop's size and features are quite good.

The X1 Titanium Yoga is also certified with Intel Evo, which ensures fast resume and long battery life, Wi-Fi 6, and other modern features from the 11th Gen of processors.

So, how is it? I've been using the X1 Titanium Yoga all weekend, and so far, it's been flawless. I'll have a deeper dive later this week, but so far, this is my favorite laptop of CES 2021. If you have questions about this laptop, leave them in the comments, and I'll try to answer.

ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga will be available to order starting January 2021, with prices starting at $1,899.
