Lenovo released its new ThinkPad X1 2021 series in early March. The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6 features a new 14-inch 16:10 display. As usual with Lenovo, their starting prices are very high at the moment. The PC maker had announced that the Lenovo X1 Yoga Gen 6 now available to buy in the US.
The ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 6 is almost identical to the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9, but the convertible includes a high-resolution UHD+ 4K (3840 x 2400) display.
Lenovo has not only given the 6th generation of its business convertible a completely new case but has also installed a 16:10 panel for the first time in many years. Another surprise is the touchscreen itself, which has a matt surface and therefore, is particularly advantageous in very bright surroundings or outdoors.
There is better components built-in the Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, there are significantly more connections that are even more modern, and the keyboard is also better. There is also a better sound system with 4 speakers and the battery life is long.

Lenovo X1 Yoga Gen 6 is now available to buy via the Bhphotovideo.com and Newegg.com online stores at a starting price of $1,812.
