The world’s first ThinkPad X13s with Qualcomm’s third-generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform is available for sale in China, weighing 1.06kg and lasting up to 26.2 hours with 16GB LPDDR4 and 512GB SSD hard drive, supporting 5G and WiFi6 networks and pre-installed with Windows 11ARM system for 7,999 RMB.
This world’s first launch of the third generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform, how it actually performs, I believe it will attract a lot of attention. As the world’s first 5nm Windows PC platform, it consists of a combination of four 3.0Ghz cortex-X1 large cores and four 2.4Ghz cortex-A78 energy-efficient cores. Compared to notebooks equipped with second-generation Snapdragon 8cx, it offers a 40% increase in CPU single-core performance and 85% increase in multi-core performance. Meanwhile, Qualcomm Adreno690 GPU performance achieves up to 60% improvement over its predecessor and even supports a 120Hz gaming masterpiece experience. Combined with the mainstream configuration of 16GB LPDDR4 and 512GB SSD hard drive, it is not a problem for daily office, internet browsing, audio and video entertainment, or even leisure game playing.
It also performs very well for the longevity that business hearts value so much. The third-generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform is astonishingly capable of maintaining a similar power consumption compared to the thousand generations while delivering a significant performance increase. And when compared to its x86 architecture competitor, it achieves up to 85% inter-generational performance improvement and up to 60% energy efficiency improvement. The excellent energy efficiency, paired with the ThinkPad X13s’ large 49.5Whr battery, can achieve up to 26.2 hours of battery life, truly achieving “all-day use” endurance performance. At the same time, it is equipped with a 65W fast charger, which also charges quickly to meet the fast pace of business work.
Because of the excellent energy performance of the 3rd generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform, the ThinkPad X13s not only allows the fanless design to reduce operating noise; it also reduces weight and thickness to achieve an ultra-slim design of 1.06kg and 13.4mm, allowing users to easily carry this 13.3-inch screen ultrabook to work on the move anytime, anywhere.
And the third-generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform features the Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 mobile connectivity system, which, combined with dual Wi-Fi clients, enables the fastest WiFi 6/6E rates available; it also has a built-in 5G SIM slot and comes with 12 months of traffic with the purchase of the ThinkPad X13s at the Lenovo official store. With its own 5G and WiFi6 high-speed network, users are always online like a cell phone and can get a high-speed and secure network experience.
The third generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform is capable of performing an outstanding AI arithmetic of 29 trillion operations per second (29+ TOPS), almost three times ahead of competing platforms, which makes your ultrabook smarter. For example, when conducting web conferencing, Qualcomm Spectra ISP enables users to always have clear video results by reducing camera startup time by up to 15%, while the latest generation 3A algorithm also satisfies the effects of auto-focus, auto-white balance and auto-exposure; and with dual-array microphones and AI noise reduction, it also delivers an ultra-high-definition conference voice experience with significant noise reduction.
All in all, with the 3rd generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform, ThinkPad X13s can get all-day network/endurance capability while providing excellent computing power and benchmarking in network meeting experience and carrying experience. thinkPadX13s has been officially launched at RMB 7999, and it is believed that more products with 3rd generation Snapdragon The ThinkPad X13s is now officially available for RMB 7,999, and it is believed that more products with the third-generation Snapdragon 8cx computing platform will follow to meet consumers’ requirements for higher standards in notebook computers.
