Description
The ThinkPad T420s maximizes performance and offers a higher level of productivity for today's mobile business professionals. These laptops are built upon a platform of Lenovo innovations that respond to key business needs including: video and voice calling, smart PC features for power and performance management, all-day battery life, enterprise management and an intuitive, easy-to-use computing experience.

Smart PC power and performance management
The laptops incorporate self-aware and adaptive technologies to sense where power is needed most to ensure priority components receive power for improved overall performance and battery life. Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 dynamically increases processor speed during performance intensive tasks such as video editing, data analysis and 3D applications. Lenovo Turbo Boost+ enables the laptops to stay in Turbo Boost even longer by keeping processor temperatures below required thermal limits. With reduced power to non-essential hardware, the laptops achieve longer battery life while playing multimedia so users can watch DVDs, listen to MP3s or stream web content longer. -
Video and voice calling
The laptops include a variety of technologies for enhanced video and voice conferencing. Private chat and conference call microphone modes allow users to switch easily between modes with a single mouse click. Private chat mode can also use noise canceling technology to focus on a single voice, while conference call mode opens the audio capture field to 360 degrees around the notebook, allowing for multiple user interaction in the room. The laptops also include keyboard noise suppression technology to help eliminate the distracting keyboard clicking that often occurs while typing during PC-based voice calls. -
Designed for enterprise
Built upon a platform of advanced industry technologies, the ThinkPad laptops offer enterprise IT managers high reliability and easy deployment and manageability. For example, the ThinkPad T Series share the same docking station to simplify deployment, reduce costs and allow hardware sharing among employees. The laptops also share common batteries for lower cost and easy component management.
