Lenovo launches new high-end laptop models

MANILA, Philippines -  Lenovo, the second largest personal computer company in the world, launched two new high-end laptops for its business customers to highlight 20 years of ThinkPad innovation in the Philippines.

Lenovo Philippines country manager Vicky Agorrilla said the ThinkPad X1 Carbon and the ThinkPad T430u Ultrabook would meet the demand for extremely thin and light laptops with the performance users need to accomplish their professional and business goals.

“Very few brands are fortunate enough to become an industry icon with loyal fans. Lenovo’s commitment to innovation continues to deliver best products in the industry and we’re excited to debut our business class Ultrabooks,” Agorrilla

She added that both laptops are powered by 3rd generation Intel Core processors, and boot and wakeup in a flash and offer impressive battery life.

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon priced at P94,990 is the world’s lightest 14-inch Ultrabook, weighing less than three pounds but provides eight hours of battery life and equipped with optional 3G mobile broadband and hotspot technology.

On the other hand, the ThinkPad T430u Ultrabook priced at P61,990 powers the business and personal computing needs with more than seven hours of battery life.

Last month, Lenovo introduced IdeaPads S300 and S400 that would expand the company’s ultraportable IdeaPad product line and at the same time strike a balance between portability and performance for consumers who want more computing power than a netbook and longer battery life than a traditional laptop without the premium price of an Ultrabook™.

The IdeaPad S300 and S400 combine comfort, simplicity and responsiveness to give consumers an affordable PC with quality construction, low price point and solid performance.

The S300 and S400 make great travel companions as it is less than an inch thick at 21.9 mm to be exact, and weighs only 1.8kgs. The Lenovo IdeaPad S300 is priced at P21,995 while the IdeaPad S400 is priced at P24,995.

Lenovo is a $30 billion personal technology company serving customers in more than 160 countries. Formed by Lenovo Group’s acquisition of the former IBM Personal Computing Division, it develops, manufactures and markets reliable, high-quality, secure and easy-to-use technology products and services.
