Imagine carrying workstation-level capability in a form factor this effortless. Its slim profile does not mislead. Lenovo is tucking serious power into it.

A New Era for ThinkPad?
Perhaps the most talked-about change is the absence of the iconic TrackPoint. Die-hard ThinkPad users may notice this. Lenovo is signaling a shift. The X14 Aura Edition boasts a spacious haptic trackpad. This caters to modern user tastes. Lenovo reassures its fanbase that TrackPoint isn't going away. Many other ThinkPad models retain it.
ThinkPad X14 Aura Edition joins the pack. More opulence with an ultraportable chassis joins the venerated line of business notebooks under Lenovo's umbrella. This ThinkPad model stands out for people looking at premium, light items. It never quite compromises performance across the board.
