Lenovo unveiled the third generation ThinkPad X1 Carbon, calling it the world’s lightest 14 inch ultrabook, at 2.8 pounds.

Born from the same stock as aircrafts and racing cars, the X1 Carbon is forged from carbon fiber, and features an adaptive keyboard, which dynamically adjusts based on the software or application being used. The new ultrabook also integrates voice and gesture control.

The ThinkPad X1 Carbon starts at $1299, and shipping will begin late January.
