Lenovo ThinkBook 16 Gen 6 (Intel) review – Great for Work, Easy on the Ears
The Intel version of the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 Gen 6 is a business machine that doesn’t cost a whole fortune or at least if you go for a more modest CPU option. Speaking of which, this device can be found with 13th Gen Intel Raptor Lake U, P, or H-series processors so pick your configuration carefully depending on your needs. The good news is that the nice upgradability and the modern port selection are available for all machines.
Display-wise, you can choose among five IPS models – three 1200p variants (one of them is a touchscreen) and two 1600p panels (one with 60Hz and one with 120Hz refresh rate). If battery life is important for you, a combination of a 15W processor, 1920×1200 screen, and an optional 71Wh battery should be the way to go. On the other side, if you need more power and crisper picture quality, a machine with a 28W or a 45W processor like the Core i7-13700H plus the optional 2560×1600 display seems like a good choice (if money isn’t a problem).
In terms of security, you get a fTPM 2.0 chip, a Kensington Nano Security slot, a self-healing BIOS, and a privacy shutter – not bad! If you want to transform your laptop into a well-protected fortress, you can get a vPro processor and an IR Web camera. Interestingly, the fingerprint reader is a standard feature while the backlight isn’t. The machine also boasts optional Wi-Fi 6E + Bluetooth 5.3 for connectivity and two 2W Dolby Audio speakers. For longer autonomous work and extra snappiness, look for a machine that is Intel Evo certified (option).

do suggest between E series and thinkBook 16
We currently have a review of the ThinkPad E16, so read both and try to see what’s more important for you. From our experience, ThinkPads and ThinkBooks are very similar, they just have different designs.
We have about 20 ThinkBooks at work and i am not happy with their robustness compared to Thinkpad L series we have. Electronics are ok, not that many more failures than L Thinkpads. Can’t speak for E series because we don’t have any.
What about configuration with core i7 13700H processor and 71 W battery, will it still last around 10 hours of Web browsing on a single charge or it is only true for configuration with Intel u-series processors and 45/71 W battery?
ja
Absolute non-sense battery review. I own thinkbook 16 with Intel u7 and it barely lasts 4 hours of internet browsing and all battery saving options are enabled. 7 hours is unachievable. This test is clearly faulty
trash, loud fans, gets hot easily
loud fans with having on old app that should be no effort for it !
bad quality!
