ThinkPad X390

ThinkPad T490
The highlight of ThinkPad T490 is that it features Nvidia’s latest MX250 stand-alone, dual far-field microphones and improved speakers with higher sound quality. The ThinkPad T490’s borders are narrowed by 22% and the QHD screen options for Dolby’s view are also available. There is also a ThinkPad T490s with a silver body. The T490s does not carry a separate graphics card, so it is lighter than the T490.
ThinkPad T590
