The company revealed its new fleet of ThinkCentre neo Ultra 2025 systems at an event in China this week, with Intel Core CPU options, Thunderbolt 4 connectivity, and a desktop GeForce RTX 5060 Ti with 180W of TGP. Lenovo says its new Mini-PC can handle up to a desktop Intel Core Ultra 9 285 processor, too... no laptop chips here, folks.

Lenovo did say that the base configuration of its new ThinkCentre neo Ultra will feature an unknown CPU model from the Intel Core Ultra 5 family, and a desktop NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060. In the middle, we've got an also unknown CPU, this time from the Core Ultra 7 family, and the higher-end RTX 5060 Ti GPU.

32GB of RAM and 1TB SSD will be offered as default, but Lenovo didn't share the high-end configuration (64GB + 2TB, 64GB + 4TB, and higher would be nice to see). As for pricing, we're looking at the base configuration of the ThinkCentre neo Ultra 2025 at CNY 14,999 in China (around $2058 USD or so), the mid-range configuration will cost CNY 19,999 (or around $2744 USD or so).

Lenovo has built the new Apple Mac Studio competitor into a small 3.6L chassis with a built-in 300W PSU and support for discrete NPU cards if you need some additional AI workload horsepower. We should expect to see Lenovo's refreshed ThinkCentre neo Ultra 2025 systems at Computex 2025 next month.
