Lenovo is trying to grab the attention of consumers with its Lavie hardware announcements, but the company hasn't forgotten about its Think-branded hardware, which gets nine new additions today.

CES 2020 Bug ArtLet's start with the ThinkPad X1, of which two new models have been announced. The first is the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 8, which boasts 10th gen Intel Core i5 and i7 processors combined with up to 16GB of LPDDR3 RAM, up to 2TB of storage, and battery life of 18.5 hours. Add to that a 14-inch display (FHD, 4K Dolby Vision, Touch, and HDR options) with up to 500-nits brightness, Dolby Atmos, and an enhanced keyboard layout. There's no release date beyond 2020 yet, but expect prices to start at $1,499.

The other ThinkPad is the X1 Yoga Gen 5. Internally it's very much like the X1 Carbon Gen 8, but battery life is limited to 15 hours, and it's a little heavier. However, in return you get the flexibility we've come to expect from a Yoga laptop, including tablet and tent modes. The Yoga also has a release date of 2020 and prices start at $1,599.

Lenovo ThinkCentre M90a

If you don't need a portable PC, then Lenovo would love to sell you the new ThinkCentre M90a. It's a 23.8-inch all-in-one with an 88 percent screen-to-body ratio and 1080p resolution E-Privacy display allowing for optional screen blurring and Face ID software. Lenovo also included Dolby Atmos and a way to hide all the cables for a clean desktop.

The M90a will start at $1,099 with spec options up to 10th gen Intel Core i7 vPro processors, AMD Radeon 625 graphics, 32GB of DDR4 RAM, and multiple hard drive and SSD options. Expect it in June.

New ThinkVision Monitors

Lenovo also announced four monitors, including the ThinkVision Creator Extreme, the ThinkVision P27h-20, ThinkVision T24v-20, and the ThinkVision T34w-20.

The Creator Extreme is aimed at creative professionals whose major tasks include video editing. The 27-inch 16:9 4K IPS display supports HDR1000 with mini LED backlight, up to 1,000-nits brightness, and includes a USB Type-C one-cable solution for Smart Power. It also conforms to 99 percent of the DCI-P3 color gamut, 100 percent of sRGB, and 100 percent of BT.709. It will be available in April for $2,499.

Lenovo ThinkVision P27H

The P27h-20 is a 27-inch QHD IPS display with anti-glare, 350-nits brightness, swivel, tilt, and pivot adjustment and will cost $549 when it launches in March. It includes USB-Type-C with Ethernet and speakers and has a four-side NearEdgeless design for easy multi-screen setups.

If you don't want to spend a lot of money, there's the T24v-20, which is a 24-inch 1080p IPS display with three-side NearEdgeless design, but also a built-in webcam, dual-array microphone, speaker, and face tracking tech. It launches in April for $279.

Lenovo ThinkVision T34w

The last monitor is the T34w-20 and Lenovo created it with productivity in mind. It's a 34-inch 21:9 WQHD curved display. The three-side NearEdgeless design makes it easy to extend the curve with multiple screens, while a USB-C one-cable solution for power, data, and video should keep the cable mess to a minimum. Expect it to appear in March for $799.

Lenovo ThinkPad TrackPoint II Keyboard

There's two more new Think products worth mentioning from Lenovo's reveal today. The first is a new keyboard called the ThinkPad TrackPoint II. It takes the iconic ThinkPad laptop keyboard complete with TrackPoint and offers it as a separate keyboard for use with your PC. It's wireless (2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5 supported) with battery life rated at two months on a full charge or a week from a 15-minute top-up. There's also SwiftPair support allowing for easy switching between two devices connected to the keyboard. The TrackPoint II works with Windows 10, Windows 7, and Android, and will be available in May for $99.99.

Finally, we have the ThinkSmart View, which is basically a smart screen device for the office. It allows for easy video conferencing using the built-in 8-inch IPS multi-touch display, speakers, and microphones. The 2.2-pound device runs on Qualcomm's Snapdragon 624 chip, 2GB of memory, and 8GB of storage, and leverages Microsoft Teams for connecting to PCs and the cloud seamlessly.

The ThinkView Smart will be available later this month for $349, or you can purchase it in a bundle with the ThinkPad X1 ANC Bluetooth Headset for $449.
