Thinkpad X1 Carbon Tablet Gen 4 (will it ever come?)
Dear community,
The gen 3 tablet is not available on the lenovo website anymore. What is happening? The device is a year and something old now and already discontinued? When will gen 4 come out?
Thank you.

It's still showing available on the both the U.S. and Canadian versions of the Lenovo site:

Maybe they don't have any in stock in the Netherlands for some reason? Or maybe as you suggest, there is a new model in the works so they are not replenishing the stock in different countries once it is gone.
I have had the experience of some Lenovo products remaining available for *years* on the U.S. site even though they had disappeared a long time ago from the Canadian site.

Yeah, the Thinkpad X1 Carbon Tablet Gen 3 is also sold out in our region also...
Perhaps it's just an inventory allocation situation.
However, as the Thinkpad X1 Carbon Tablet Gen 3 was announced Jan 2018, let's keep our fingers crossed!

Looks like it's safe to say Lenovo has given up on producing x1 Carbon tablets.
ThinkPads owned so far: 701C, T40, 2 x T60, X60 Tablet, X200 Tablet, X1 Tablet 1st Gen, T410, T430, T440s.

Looks like the X12 Detachable Gen 1 is the spiritual successor!

Still no normal keyboard. Obviously, there is just no space for the 7-row. Look at that tiny touchpad and very slim bezel above the keyboard!

Re: Thinkpad X1 Carbon Tablet Gen 4 (will it ever come?)
Just to clarify, that leak is about the X1 Carbon Extreme Gen 4, not an X1 Carbon Tablet variant or X12 detachable. By the time I got to the site, the video had been pulled down off YouTube.
As dr_st notes, in terms of changes, there is still no movement on the keyboard front. Though now that I've had an X1 Carbon Tablet Gen 3 and a P52 for a couple years, I'm starting to become a bit more used to the (definitely degraded!) typing experience and layout on the "new" chicklet/island style Lenovo keyboards. And I'm now more or less resigned to the fact that keyboards will just never be as good as they used to be.
I am encouraged by the prospect of a 16:10 screen, though. And in fact, the 16:9 aspect ratio is one of the reasons that I've held off on picking up any of the rest of the X1 series beyond the X1 Tablet Gen 3 (which has a 3:2 aspect ratio and a very nice 3000x2000 IPS touch screen). I'm a bit curious to see the ports, screen, and CPU options in the upcoming X1 Carbon Extreme Gen 4 from that leak.
