It looks like a typical thinkpad rubber back, but with the x1's "carbon fiber" design cutting through it with a wide diagonal line. Google only gives standard rubber backs. Anyone have any idea what this version of the design is called?
If you're looking for what the design is called, they're zigzags. The shape of the design and the angle of the pattern obscures the pattern. If you were to rotate it so that the two acute angles of the parallelogram were pointing up and down you should see the parallel zigzag patterns more clearly.
So it's a parallelogram filled with thick zigzags. I couldn't find anything with google, so it's probably a custom job.
yea ik about the zigzags
i was asking about the parallelogram design lol
Looks custom. It seems unlikely that Lenovo would offer this.
Run your fingernail across the transition in each direction. Is the carbon fiber part higher than the rubber coating, or lower?
higher. i doubt it's a sticker though, it's almost like its intergrated into the case.
fyi, i bought it from a local store called e-byte.gr, but the keyboard is nordic (probably swedish)
do you have the specific model number of it? that may lead to a specific hardware revision,
could also have been a replaced part, tho idk
Neofetch says 20BUS13B08 (Thinkpad T450)
Theres a sticker on the bottom which says KO-99924457
Also the keyboard is Swedish QWERTY, it has Æ, Ø and Å.
A couple minutes after posting, I also ran the image through google lens. It only shows custom carbon fiber wraps and images of X1 thinkpads. Here the carbon fiber design is only in a diagonal line, what's that design called?
Btw regarding the design, closest term I know on a similar design is the "racing stripe".
Yeah, but whats the design where its a wide fiagonal line cutting through the typical rubber back called?
This looks like custom made, I would like to see details on the corners of the Thinkpad lid, mostly curious. Lovely design imo.
