Deal | Get an 11th-gen Intel core i7-powered Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (Gen 9) for 50% off its starting price

Lenovo's US webstore has announced what it calls "the 2nd best Friday of the year" with its "Doorbuster Deals" event of today (July 9, 2021). It involves sizable discounts on a number of PCs, among which is a ThinkPad P17. It is not the latest, 2nd-gen Quadro RTX A5000-powered version; however, its Intel Xeon W-10855M platform and actual A4000 graphics may still make it an attractive prospect for some.

It is priced at US$3,079, or $3,100 off the mobile workstation's normal price, during this sale. Another headliner of the event may be the ninth-gen Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon. With its 16:10 aspect ratio, re-designed TouchPad, long battery life and 16GB of RAM, it might be a solid choice among 2021 ultrabooks.

The X1 Carbon (Gen 9) debuted with some pretty astronomical prices. However, Lenovo has been offering some sales in order to drum up interest in the machine, and this is one of them. It cuts the i7-1185G7-based business PC down to $1,684.50 until July 12, 2021 at 02:59 EST (08:59 CET). Meanwhile, the rest of its offers include some handily snipped prices, such as $160 off a new Legion Slim 7 Gen 6 AMD.
