Lenovo is using CES 2026 to show off its latest PC lineup. Among the announcements is the new ThinkCentre X AIO, a professional-focused all-in-one that stands out almost entirely because of its display.
The ThinkCenter X has a near-square screen that looks very different from the typical 16:9 or 16:10 panels we’re used to seeing.

The ThinkCentre X AIO features a 27.6-inch IPS display with a resolution of 2,560 x 2,880 pixels. That works out to a rare 16:18 aspect ratio, which gives the screen a noticeably boxy appearance.
According to Lenovo, this design choice is intentional. The company says the display can show two A4 pages side by side, making it better suited for document work, coding, and content creation than for entertainment or gaming.
Not to anyone’s surprise, the panel runs at a standard 60Hz refresh rate with a 14ms response time. Its brightness tops out at 300 nits, contrast is rated at 1000:1, and Lenovo claims 98 percent coverage of the DCI-P3 color gamut. That should make it adequate for design and creative tasks, even if it’s not exactly the top-of-the-line specs.
Powered by laptop CPUs
Inside, Lenovo is using Intel’s third-generation Core Ultra processors, going up to a Core Ultra X7 chip. Unfortunately, these are not desktop-class CPUs, but they should still be powerful enough for most professional workloads.
The system can be configured with up to 64GB of LPDDR5x memory running at 9,600 MT/s, along with dual M.2 2280 SSD slots for storage. Graphics are handled by Intel’s Arc B390 integrated GPU with 12 Xe3 cores, which Lenovo and Intel claim is a significant step up from previous integrated solutions. There’s no option for discrete graphics here.
The ThinkCentre X AIO can also be configured with an optional 16-megapixel AI camera, alongside four microphones and four speakers. Other features include Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and a physical camera shutter for privacy.
The I/O option includes Thunderbolt and HDMI 2.1 ports on the back, and USB-C and USB-A ports on the side. The company hasn’t shared detailed standards for every port yet, and there’s no mention of wired Ethernet, which is a little surprising for a ThinkCentre-branded machine.
The ThinkCentre X AIO weighs around 7.37kg and is expected to officially launch in March. Lenovo hasn’t announced pricing and availability details yet.
