The perfect balance of performance, portability and energy efficiency
Take a load off
You'll want to take your super portable T Series notebook everywhere. And as the thinnest, lightest T Series ever, starting at just 3.91 pounds, .83 inches thin and with new touch-screen capabilities available; you can—without compromising display size or power.

Work longer with energy-saving features
New T Series laptops increase energy efficiency by more than 25% over previous T Series models, extending battery life and increasing your mobile computing time—a life saver for on-the-go pros:
  • Lenovo Battery Stretch lets you make temporary selections in extreme situations to extend battery life.
  • Switchable graphics lets you move to lower quality graphics when you need to maximize mobile computing time.
  • Integrated graphics reduce power consumption by using only part of your laptop's RAM.
  • LCD backlight displays and SSD drives use less battery power and create less heat.
  • Optical disk drive and audio automatically switch to a low power state when there's no activity.
  • Green Power Scheme and ThinkPad EnergySaver technology help preserve mobile computing time.

Picture-perfect graphics
T Series laptops give you superior graphics performance.
Switchable graphics let you power-up stunning graphics for important presentations, then power them down to preserve battery life. And they're easy to use. Just hot-key between Performance and Power Saving modes, or switch via the software user interface. No reboot required!

LED backlit displays are mercury-free and generate 25% brighter displays, boast crisper colors, consume less power and weigh 70 grams less than conventional CCFL displays. Use the wide dimming range to reduce brightness while still experiencing a clear display in dim environments.

DisplayPort video port (on select models) lets you attach a high-resolution digital DVI monitor using a DisplayPort connector. Use this next-generation display interface technology for everything from notebooks to monitors to TVs to projectors.

Stay connected
T Series offers several ways to connect for the best wireless performance:
  • Mobile broadband-ready models let you connect to a mobile broadband network and switch to a different carrier during the life of the system.
  • Ultra-Wideband Bluetooth capability lets you clear cable clutter and free up your USB ports by using Certified Wireless USB technology. Take advantage of this technology today using a wireless USB hub and in the future as wireless USB devices become available.
  • WiMAX capability is available to ready your T Series notebook for this emerging long-range wireless broadband technology.
And like all ThinkPad models, T Series notebooks come with convenient Access Connections™ software to manage your connectivity options as you move from location to location.
