The T Series is Lenovo’s workhorse laptop lineup, created to cover the needs of professionals who need performance and durability with the latest technology. The T Series is getting three new models: the 14-inch ThinkPad T14 and T14s and the 16-inch T16.

The T Series is a robust design, but it does not serve the needs of professionals in the field. That’s why the ThinkPad X12 Detachable is set to deliver a tablet and laptop experience for those who are always on the go. According to Lenovo, the X12 Detachable is designed for “highly mobile professionals, such as insurance, healthcare, or law enforcement workers.”

• Security: Fingerprint reader on the keyboard, Windows Hello (optional), webcam privacy shutter, Nano Kensington lock slot

The X12 includes a detachable, backlit keyboard with a three-button TrackPad, so you can easily use it for traditional computing tasks in laptop mode. It also has an optional magnetic pen, allowing you to make the most of the X12 in tablet mode.

If you need a tablet-laptop hybrid and the large screen of a traditional laptop, the ThinkBook 14 2-in-1 Gen 4 delivers the best of both worlds. This convertible PC has a thin profile at just 16.85mm thick and weighs just 1.64kg, but it has a large 14-inch 16:10 display. It also has a glass-like Mylar touchpad and a Magnetic Slim Pen for more precise inputs on the touchscreen display.

Aside from these brand-new laptops, Lenovo also has three new accessories perfect for those who work at multiple locations. It shows off the ThinkVision M14T Gen 2, a touch-enabled mobile screen with a dual USB-C input for power and display.
