A few hours from CES, Lenovo renews part of its range. The ThinkPad X380 and X280 are computers primarily intended for professionals. The two machines have many things in common, starting with the processors used, Intel 8th generation chips (which have twice as many hearts as last year). The X360 and X280 are equipped with the same graphics chip, an Intel UHD Graphics 620, which although not a "gamer" graphics card, can decently have fun with the less recent games.

The RAM of both computers can be up to 16 GB, but the memory frequency of the X280 is adjustable up to 2133 MHz while that of the X380 can run up to 2400 MHz. Storage on SSD can be up to 1 TB.

Dolby Premium on the X380

A major difference between the X280 and the X380 could be connected to the SSD connectivity, which should be more efficient on the X380, but this remains to be confirmed by tests. The X380 hosts a Dolby Premium Audio system while the X280 hosts Dolby Advance Audio. The ThinkPad X280 has a 12.5-inch screen and the X380, a 13.3-inch screen. Both have a 1080p resolution (1980 × 1080), the X380 theoretically having a more colorful screen with wider viewing angles thanks to an IPS LCD panel.

The ThinkPad X280 is the lightest computer, so the most portable of the two (at 1.2 kg), while the ThinkPad X380 is more "imposing" (1.4 kg) and complete (note for example the presence of a card reader on this model) and a little faster (SSD performance).
