Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen — Certified Refurbished Ultra-Light Business Laptop
The ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen packs an Intel Core i5-8250U 8th Gen processor, 8GB LPDDR3 RAM, 256GB SSD, and a 14-inch FHD IPS touchscreen into a 1.13kg carbon fibre chassis — available from $395 inc GST with a 12-month warranty from Reboot IT.
Why the ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen Is the Ultimate Business Ultrabook
- Intel Core i5-8250U 8th Gen Performance: Quad-core processor with 1.6GHz base and 3.4GHz Turbo Boost — handles Office 365, Teams, Zoom, browser-heavy workflows, and multitasking without lag.
- Ultra-Light at 1.13kg: Carbon fibre and magnesium alloy chassis makes this one of the lightest 14-inch business laptops available. Commuting, travel, and hot-desking made effortless.
- 14" FHD IPS Touchscreen: 1920×1080 IPS panel with touch input and wide viewing angles — ideal for presentations, annotating documents, and intuitive on-screen navigation.
- Fast 256GB NVMe SSD: Sub-15-second boot times, instant app launches, and smooth performance throughout the day. OPAL 2.0 hardware encryption built in.
- Thunderbolt 3 Connectivity: Two Thunderbolt 3 ports support 40Gbps data transfer, 4K external displays, and fast charging — future-proof connectivity for modern peripherals and docks.
- Windows 11 Pro with Genuine Licence: Full Windows 11 Professional included — BitLocker, Remote Desktop, and enterprise domain join support for business and IT-managed environments.
How the ThinkPad X1 Carbon 6th Gen Performs Day-to-Day
In day-to-day business use, the X1 Carbon 6th Gen handles Microsoft 365, Outlook with large mailboxes, Chrome or Edge with 15+ tabs, Teams or Zoom video calls, and PDF workflows simultaneously. The 8GB LPDDR3 provides solid multitasking headroom for accounting tools like Xero and MYOB (browser), CRM platforms, document management, and remote desktop sessions.
For mobile professionals, the combination of 8th Gen performance, NVMe SSD speed, and sub-1.2kg weight means no compromises on power or portability. The touchscreen is particularly useful for annotating PDFs, navigating presentations in meeting rooms, and quick scrolling on the go. The IR camera enables Windows Hello facial recognition for instant, password-free login.
The ThinkPad keyboard — widely regarded as the best in the laptop industry — delivers a confident, accurate typing experience for long writing sessions. The TrackPoint pointing stick and precision trackpad give you full cursor control without lifting your hands from the keys.

I like and very nice clean
Very easy fit
Great upgrade phone at a very reasonable price.
Condition as stated in description if not better.
Great little laptop for school
Good value and great quality
Fantastic service
I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!
Great service. Product in great condition and exactly what i want. I wanted this for a specific purpose but i dont need to spend $900 on a new one.
Excellent work
exactly as described and works well , just like the staff down there. 10/10
Very happy, thank you
Just having trouble greeting it linked to the internet otherwise it’s okay.
Fair tech for price, good specs for era, serves the purpose. The black keyboard is an interesting rubber like texture clearly by design to pad the screen and avoid the keyboard touching. Screen is great. Still looking for magic formula to enable computer use in the bright bright sunshine. Keyboard taps are loud for someone who likes silent touch. The perfect PC has to exist, like build a bear.
The laptop was sold with a warning about worn keycaps. In fact they had been obviously vandalised (ex school laptops, perhaps?). The keyboard worked fine, and the rest of the laptop too. I'm using it as a file server, so I don't need the keyboard much. So very pleased, and also pleased with reboot-it's service - as always, excellent, and quick responses to any queries.
