Lenovo’s ThinkPad X-series has a long-standing reputation as the gold-standard for portable business laptops, and the ThinkPad X390 is a strong example. With a compact 13.3 inch frame, the iconic ThinkPad keyboard, TrackPoint nub, and MIL-STD-810G tested durability, it’s built for professionals who actually travel and need a laptop that can keep up.
Powering it is the 8th-generation Intel Core i5-8265U, a four-core, eight-thread processor that’s still very capable for everyday business use. It chews through office work, web browsing, video calls and light photo editing without complaint, with plenty of headroom for normal multitasking.
16GB of DDR4 RAM is the sweet spot for serious multitasking — dozens of browser tabs, Office, Teams, Slack and your music app all open at once with no slowdown. The 512GB SSD gives you plenty of fast storage for documents, photos and the apps you use every day.
The 13.3 inch HD-class display is the right size for a true ultraportable — small enough to slip into a slim bag, big enough to actually work on for hours. It’s a great fit for commuters, frequent travellers, hot-deskers and anyone who needs a laptop they can take everywhere.
Build quality is what you’d expect from a ThinkPad: tough magnesium-roll-cage construction, MIL-STD-810G tested durability, a brilliant backlit keyboard with deep, satisfying travel, the iconic red TrackPoint, and a precision trackpad. It looks and feels like the serious business tool it is.
Connectivity is modern and generous for an ultraportable: two USB-C ports for charging, monitors and high-speed peripherals, two USB-A ports for traditional accessories, full-size HDMI, a microSD card slot, plus the integrated webcam for video calls.
Every ThinkPad we sell is professionally refurbished by our in-house technicians. That means a multi-point hardware check (battery, screen, keyboard, ports, speakers and webcam), a fresh licensed install of Windows 11, and a full cosmetic clean. It’s tested, ready to use out of the box, and backed by our 1-year warranty.
Overall, the Lenovo ThinkPad X390 in this 16GB / 512GB spec is one of the best-value business ultraportables we sell — light, tough, brilliant to type on, and seriously capable. Order today with free UK delivery, our 1-year warranty, and 30-day money-back guarantee.
