Verdict

We can conclude that the Lenovo ThinkPad L13 Gen 4 (Intel) is a business-oriented device that is meant for people who value comfort over performance. Here, the CPU fan is quiet even when the CPU is under maximum stress. In this scenario, the processor temperature is low as well as the frequencies. Still, in short and medium loads, the clocks are high enough for normal office work.

The rigidity of the chassis isn’t great. You can’t open the lid with a single hand and there is a visible amount of flex on the base even during typing. Speaking of which, the keyboard and the touchpad are comfortable. Expectedly (because of the compact form factor), the only thing that you can upgrade is the NVMe. The memory is soldered but the maximum possible amount of 32GB of LPDDR5 RAM should be enough for most users.

The battery life is long enough for a whole working day and a half away from the charger – more than 12 hours of either Web browsing or videos. That is a very good result given the small capacity of just 46Wh. The IPS display (Innolux N133JCA-EEK (LEN41A0)) is all you need for usual daily or office tasks. The unit is PWM-free and the viewing angles are wide. The main con of the panel is the low sRGB coverage (54%).

The port selection is rich and it includes four USBs and an HDMI 2.1. The Lenovo ThinkPad L13 Gen 4 (Intel) is a thin and light business device that impresses with a PWM-free IPS display, long battery life, quiet fan under full CPU load, and modern port selection.
