Lenovo took to IFA 2025 to roll out its next generation of ThinkPad mobile workstations and business laptops, built around Intel’s latest Core Ultra 200HX processors with up to 24 cores and integrated NPUs for accelerated AI tasks. These new models are designed for pros who need uncompromising performance in fields like design, engineering, data science, and creative production.
The ThinkPad P16 Gen 3 is the ultimate desktop replacement in mobile form. With up to NVIDIA RTX Pro 5000 Blackwell graphics and 24GB of VRAM, it’s built to crush 3D rendering, simulations, and other heavy workloads. Lenovo slimmed down the chassis this time, making it more portable while keeping the raw horsepower intact.
The ThinkPad P1 Gen 8 balances workstation-level power with a sleek, travel-friendly design. It pairs Intel Core Ultra processors with up to RTX Pro 2000 graphics, making it ideal for creators, developers, and CAD specialists who need reliable performance on the go.
For those who need performance at different price points, Lenovo also refreshed the ThinkPad P16v Gen 3, P16s Gen 4, and P14s Gen 6. These laptops are thinner, lighter, and still certified for mission-critical tasks, giving professionals flexible options without sacrificing compute power.
Originally unveiled at CES, the ThinkPad X9 Aura Edition made a return at IFA with a bold new Glacier White finish. Offered in 14- and 15-inch sizes, it delivers over 40 TOPS of AI-enhanced performance, powered by Intel Core Ultra processors and Windows 11. Beyond the performance, Lenovo is transitioning its Smart Share experience into Smart Connect, bringing seamless file transfer and cross-device control into a unified app.
