Dynabook dug deep into its Toshiba roots to add a premium look and style to the new 14-inch X40-K laptop, featuring 12th Gen Intel Core P Series 28W processor options starting with the Core i5-1240P and Core i7-1260P CPUs to kick things off. The next tier of Intel CPUs features the Core-i5 1250P VPro, Core-i7 1270 P VPro, and the Core-i7 1280P VPro processors. Intel's Iris Xe or UHD GPUs handle the graphics, and you can outfit your X40-K with up to 64GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD storage.
