Lenovo Updates its ThinkPad series with latest Intel and AMD Processors

Lenovo unveiled a slew of new ThinkPads recently as part of its Mobile World Congress announcements. The majority of these are specification updates, though some include minor design changes, such as new materials. Lenovo’s AMD-focused Z series, ThinkPad X13 and 13 Yoga, new T and L-series refreshes, and the ThinkPad E-series aimed at small businesses are all getting updates.

The ThinkPad Z13 and Z16 Gen 2 update to last year’s AMD-powered models. This year, they’ll ship with AMD Ryzen 7000-series processors. The Z13 will have integrated Radeon graphics, while the Z16 will have a discrete AMD Radeon 6550M option. Both will be able to support up to 64GB of RAM and 2TB of SSD storage. Both laptops will be available with a 1920 x 1200, 16:10 screen; the 13-inch will be available with a 2880 x 1800 OLED panel, while the 16-inch will be available with a 3840 x 2400 OLED touchscreen.

Lenovo’s Z-series debuts a new “woven flax” material bonded to the recycled aluminum top cover.

It will retain many of the features that set it apart from other ThinkPads, such as a haptic touchpad and TrackPoint Quick Menu, as well as a 1080p webcam and Wi-Fi 6E. The haptic touchpads in this generation are made by Sensei, the same company that created the touchpads in the ThinkPad X1 Titanium Yoga and ThinkPad X1 Fold. Sensei’s technology was not present in the previous-generation Z series, so we’ll have to wait for some hands-on time to see if there’s a discernible difference.

Lenovo claims that the ThinkPad X13 Gen 5 and ThinkPad X13 Yoga Gen 5 have smaller bezels for a higher screen-to-body ratio. The speakers are now top-firing, which should improve audio (though on the 2-in-1 Yoga, this may mean they face away in some situations), and there’s an optional 5-megapixel camera with infrared. The clamshell model gets a 13.3-inch 2880 x 1800 OLED screen with Dolby Vision support as well.

The standard  Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 4 laptop will feature 13th Gen Intel Core processors as well as AMD Ryzen 7000 series mobile processors. 

It will support up to 32GB of LPDDR5 memory and 2TB of PCIe Gen 4 SSD storage. The 13.3-inch display will be available in resolutions ranging from 1920 x 1200 non-touch (with a configurable touch option) to high-resolution OLED. The Yoga version will only use Intel CPUs but will have the same memory and storage options as the other models. The 13.3-inch models will have a 1920 x 1200 touchscreen. Both will begin with an FHD webcam with a privacy shutter, with the 5MP with IR being an upgrade. The X13 and X13 Yoga will both be available in May 2023, with the clamshell starting at $1,099 and the 2-in-1 starting at $1,379.

Lenovo’s steadfast T series is getting “incremental enhancements,” such as sustainable materials and an optional 5 MP camera. The ThinkPad T14 Gen 5, T16 Gen 2, and T14s Gen 4 will all be available with a 2880 x 1880 OLED display. All three devices will be equipped with either 13th Generation Intel Core processors with vPro or Ryzen 7000 chips. These laptops will be available in May 2023, with the T14s starting at $1,479, the T14 starting at $1,239, and the T16 starting at $1,269.
