- ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1 offers optional accessories. The full-size backlit ThinkPad keyboard, with TrackPoint, Haptic Touchpad, fingerprint reader and a detachable kickstand, connects via Bluetooth. It can magnetically attach to the lower half of the display for a classic laptop mode giving a full performance laptop experience. The Lenovo Precision Pen provides a more precise and easier way of writing and sketching to enhance productivity. lnv.gy/49eD73T
I hope it has gen 13 or 14 processors.
Can this bluetooth keyboard swap the FN-CTRL buttons? That's all you need to make it good. It'd be the best BT KB on the market.
agreed
why not available in the UAE?
Only windows or with Android os?

Can the keyboard connect to other computers besides the Fold?
Hi there, @loserpro43210! Thanks for reaching out. The keyboard is specifically designed for ThinkPad X1 Fold 16 Gen 1 as it magnetically attaches to the bottom of the system. Where are you planning to use the keyboard? Let us know., we're here to help. -Maru_Lenovo
@@Lenovo yeah I know. It’s also the only external keyboard that has both a Trackpoint and a (modern) trackpad AFAIK and would be useful for other devices like the Yoga Book 9i whose keyboard has neither.
(PS. I’d use the YogaBook in stand mode all the time so it won’t bother me that the keyboard won’t fit in laptop mode.)
I understand. However, it does not have the appropriate attachment port for the keyboard. -Maru_Lenovo
@@Lenovo attachment port? I thought the keyboards are all bluetooth and any attachment is physical-only (not electrical/data) via magnets.
Anyway, even so, I already doubted the keyboard would be able to pair to any other PC since the original Fold keyboard does not (as I've heard).
Scratching my head to think who is this for? This costs more than a top end Legion in exchange for all kinds of inconvenience and janks and less horsepower.
While I agree that there is indeed more jank, this is more a practical demonstration of experimental technology. The biggest hamstring that the X1 Fold faces by far is passive cooling; that's far more suitable to an ARM processor like the Snapdragon X Elite.
As for use cases, this laptop is likely positioned at high level employees and executives who need the maximum amount of screen real estate and are constantly on the move through airports, terminals and other places. A laptop like this is highly portable and can even be used as a presentation tool like an easel. Paired with portable monitors, it could even be used like a tri-fold poster of screen real estate, providing a workstation with very flexible screen options.
The other major issue is the $2499 price tag; not even because that's a good price (it isn't), but the base spec of the laptop comes with a paltry 8GB of memory. Only Macs can work with a memory pool that small, and they rapidly hit their limits during multitasking. The real base minimum specs (12th gen i7/16GB/256GB SSD) comes in at a whopping $3299. With NO accessories. Hard pass, but maybe with that Snapdragon processor and the Frore line of silent coolers might revitalize the market for it.
@@davidmalkowski7850 I can't imagine any single one of my 50yo+ bosses/executives who are bona-fide genius in their fields yet barely able to operate Teams or Google Meet to pull out one of these during any kind of meeting or presentation and working it like a pro.
Now a 40-something senior lead who graduated high-school playing Red Alert may be more likely but even for them they' do 90% of their work on phone delegating tasks, checking emails, corresponding with clients etc... Their computer are always a lean mean business machine (compliment to Lenovo) for writing proposals/reports/reviews and whatnot.
Can't see them, or anybody fully utilizing the pure touchscreen (which sucks for typing due to lack of tactile feedback) with the foldable design. And they sure as hell not going to be assembling the LEGO magnetic dock and keyboard every time they pull it out.
Tablets will forever be too cumbersome for any tasks you can do on a phone, and not powerful or ergonomic enough for anything you'd want to sit down and pull out a laptop to do.
