The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 1 (AMD) is an unpretentious business device that doesn’t feature jaw-dropping specs but it has enough power for usual daily tasks or normal office work. Our device has an AMD Ryzen 7 7730U and we didn’t experience any slowdowns or system hangs during testing. The laptop definitely feels snappy but keep in mind that the default 4-core CPU variant (which is the Ryzen 3 7330U) isn’t a multitasking beast. The cooling solution is adequate. Thanks to it, the 8-core Ryzen 7 7730U (which is the top processor variant for the series) can maintain a stable ~2.70 GHz clock no matter the load alongside good temperatures. The noise under load is kept as low as possible without sacrificing the performance – the single fan is almost quiet when the CPU is stressed at max. On the outside, the keyboard doesn’t feel hot so you can use the laptop even when the processor is under heavy load. The input devices are a pleasant surprise. The keyboard is cozy for long typing sessions and the touchpad is smooth.

If you're not excited about spending thousands of dollars on a fancy ThinkPad X1 Carbon, then the more down-to-Earth ThinkPad E16 G1 might be worthwhile. Just make sure to choose the correct display, battery, and CPU option.

Lenovo's ThinkPad E16 won't convince brand loyalists to give up their mainstream ThinkPad T or premium ThinkPad X series laptops, but it also won't cost them nearly as much. We wish the display was brighter, and that Intel fans could order the higher-resolution screen offered with AMD configurations. However, the the E16 makes few compromises for its low price, making it an excellent alternative to a ThinkBook or consumer laptop.

Given its name, it should come as no shock that the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 is essentially an enlarged version of the entry-level ThinkPad E14. Like the E14, the E16 is a basic business laptop powered by either Intel or AMD processors and is designed for essential productivity tasks at an affordable price. While the ThinkPad E14 is now in its fifth generation, the E16 is the first of its type. On reflection, it's surprising it has taken Lenovo this long to decide there is a market for a larger version of its entry-level laptop.

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.
