Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 Review – Feature-Packed and Budget-Friendly

If your laptop display is too small for your needs or you just want to buy an external display that is feature-rich and non-costly, the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 can give you all that. Sure, it lacks the typical “wow” effect of the huge high-end OLED screens that are extremely thin, but the T24v-30 is a typical office unit and it has all the needed tools for this kind of environment.

The resolution is 1080p which is normal given the 23.8″ diagonal. The 75Hz refresh rate adds more smoothness to your workflow. Speaking of which, you also get an integrated Web camera and a pair of pretty good 3W speakers at the bottom. This screen isn’t marketed as a gaming unit but the manufacturer claims a 4 ms pixel response time if you turn on the Extreme mode. Lenovo also states a 99% sRGB coverage. So, it turns out that this one could be a typical workhorse of a panel with entry-level gaming capabilities. Sounds good on paper but let’s see if that is true.

Drivers and Software

You can download all the drivers and utilities from the official Support Page of the monitor.

Design and Connectivity

The 3-side borderless design of the ThinkVision T24v-30 contributes to a clean and modern look. The matte surface on the back in Raven black doesn’t pick up any fingerprints. The build quality is sturdy. We twisted the unit a bit and we didn’t hear any noises, squeaks, or other strange sounds. The 2MP / 1080p Web camera on top supports facial recognition for Windows Hello. A privacy shutter is also on board for extra security.

The bottom right corner houses five control buttons for Microsoft Teams, microphone and volume adjustment, and power on/off. The stand is solid and thanks to it, you can adjust the display position in many ways.

You can easily tilt the panel with one simple move.

You can also swivel the screen to the left or right at a 45-degree angle.

With the stand attached, this display can go as low as 387.8 mm but you can raise it up to 542.8 mm. The red joystick on the rear left side helps you to navigate through the OSD menus and the Source key is positioned a bit down below. On the right side, we can spot an Audio combo jack, a USB 2.0 port, and a USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) port.

Pivot is business as usual, you can turn the screen at 90° clockwise or counterclockwise.

Let’s check the ports from left to right. For starters, there is a Kensington Security Slot and a Power connector. These two are followed by a DisplayPort 1.2, an HDMI 1.4, an old-school VGA connector, a USB Type-B 3.2 (Gen. 1) port, and two USB Type-A 3.2 (Gen. 1) ports.

Viewing Angles

Viewing angles are good. We take photos from different angles to evaluate the quality.

Color Coverage

The whole “sail-shaped” map below (Fig. 1) consists of all the colors we can see, while the black crooked line shows all the colors from real-world scenes and nature around us.

Then, we’ve drawn some of the most important and interesting color spaces, compared to the colors the panel of Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 can show:

Standard/For Web: sRGB – widely used color space for most consumer devices, ideal for Web design and development
For Print: AdobeRGB – used in professional photo editing, graphic design, and print
For Photographers/Video Editors: DCI-P3 – used in high-end film production, post-production, and digital cinema
Premium HDR: Rec.2020 – the widest consumer ITU color standard, covering a massive 75.8% of the visible spectrum, a benchmark for premium HDR content

Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30: the yellow dashed triangle (– – – – – –) represents the range of colors this monitor can display.

In our tests, we calculated the total color coverage of the monitor at 98% of the sRGB color gamut and 82% of the DCI-P3 color gamut (After „Factory Reset“ in the OSD menu).

(Fig.1) Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 covers 98% of the sRGB gamut

Brightness and Contrast

The maximum brightness in SDR mode is 275 cd/m² in the center of the screen and 258 cd/m² averaged across the surface with a maximum deviation of 11% (After „Factory Reset“ in OSD menu).

The contrast ratio is 980:1.

Uniformity: Luminance, Contrast, and Color Deviation

The figure below shows the results from our uniformity test across different sections of the screen. It’s measured at 186 nits (Windows slider = 70%) — a brightness level we consider typical for standard working conditions.
DeltaE values below 4.0 are acceptable for regular users. For those working with colors, screens with DeltaE values no higher than 2.0 are recommended.

Color Accuracy

Let’s check the difference between real colors and those you’ll see on the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30. We measure that distance in DeltaE – the higher the number, the more different they look.

Values below 4.0 are acceptable for regular users, while values below 2.0 are suitable for color-sensitive work. A value below 1.0 means the difference is indistinguishable to the naked eye.

For the next graph, we’ve selected 24 common colors, including dark/light skin, blue sky, green grass, etc.

Before our calibration of the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30, the Average color accuracy was 5.1 dE (Fig. 2), and with our Design and Office profile, it lowered to 1.2 dE (Fig. 3).

Visibility in dark scenes

Have you ever watched a movie with dark scenes where you could barely see anything? This often happens because many display panels struggle to differentiate the darkest nuances, making them appear the same.

The next figure illustrates how well the display reproduces these dark nuances. The left side of the image shows the display with stock settings, and the right side shows it with our „Gaming and Movies“ profile activated.

On the horizontal axis are the grayscale levels, and on the vertical axis – the corresponding display brightness.

You can also check how your display handles the darkest nuances but keep in mind that this also depends on the settings of your current display and the surrounding light conditions.

Response time (Gaming capabilities)

We test the reaction time of the pixels with the usual “black-to-white” and “white-to-black” method from 10% to 90% and vice versa.

We recorded Fall Time + Rise Time = 17.6 ms (Extreme mode). Short pixel response time is a prerequisite for a smooth picture in dynamic scenes.

After that, we test the reaction time of the pixels with the usual “Gray-to-Gray” method from 50% White to 80% White and vice versa between 10% and 90% of the amplitude.

Health Impact: PWM (Screen flickering)

Some use PWM to regulate their brightness, which means that instead of reducing the light intensity, they pulse or flicker. Our brain merges the image, so it appears darker, but this strains both it and our vision, especially when the frequency of the pulses is low. You can read more about that in our dedicated article on PWM.

In the graph below, you see the intensity of light at different brightness levels—on the vertical axis is the brightness of the emitted light, and on the horizontal axis—time.

The light from the backlight of the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 display is not pulse-width modulated, providing visual comfort in the discussed aspect.

Health Impact: Blue light emissions

Installing our Health-Guard profile not only eliminates harmful PWM when the laptop uses it to control brightness but also reduces harmful Blue Light emissions while keeping the colors of the screen perceptually accurate.

If you’re not familiar with the Blue light, the TL;DR version is – emissions that negatively affect your eyes, skin, and your whole body. You can find more information about that in our dedicated article on Blue Light.

Sound

The speakers of the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 (2x3W integrated speakers) produce high-quality sound. Its low, mid, and high tones are clear.

Verdict

We are pleasantly surprised by the Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30. It’s a well-priced IPS display that is ready for office usage with its 2MP IR Web camera, and quality built-in speakers accompanied by an integrated microphone. The build quality is rigid and the dark-colored surface doesn’t attract a lot of smudges.

The other thing that makes this screen special is its robust stand that supports tilt, swivel, height, and pivot adjustments. The stand itself has a pretty big foot at the bottom which adds stability.

The 1080p panel is good enough for general usage, office, or even color-sensitive work. That’s possible thanks to the 98% sRGB coverage and the very good color accuracy (average dE 1.2) when our “Design and Office” profile is applied. The lack of PWM usage means that you can use this panel for long hours of work. Still, the max brightness is kind of low (275 nits) and the same can be said regarding the contrast ratio of 980:1.

The Lenovo ThinkVision T24v-30 impresses with vibrant colors, many connectors, good sound quality, and a great adjustable stand.
