Lenovo ThinkBook 16 Gen 6 (Intel) review – Great for Work, Easy on the Ears
Source: Laptop Media English
Overall, the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 Gen 6 (Intel) is a capable business machine that doesn’t cost a lot. One of the biggest advantages of this device is the near-silent fan which leads to great comfort under load. On the other hand, the CPU clocks during short loads are decent but in medium or short stress, the frequencies are heavily reduced. But hey, that’s why the fan speed is so tamed! Despite that, the machine feels snappy for normal usage. Perhaps our laptop can show a bit higher benchmark scores if the memory works in dual-channel mode, but unfortunately, only one RAM module is installed. This brings us to the fact that the upgradability is on point – two SODIMMs and two M.2 slots for Gen 4 SSDs. The port selection is modern with its Thunderbolt 4 connector, HDMI 2.1, and an SD Card reader.

Lenovo: Lenovo ("Le" from English legend, novo (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. As of 2004, the company was the largest laptop manufacturer in China and, after acquiring IBM's PC division in 2005, the fourth largest in the world. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company manufactures monitors, projectors, servers, etc, and specializes in developing, manufacturing and marketing consumer electronics, personal computers, software, enterprise solutions and related services.

In 2016, the company ranked first in the world in computer sales. It still held it in 2023 with about 23% global market share. Important product lines are Thinkpad, Legion and Ideapad.

In 2011, it acquired a majority stake in Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Motorola Mobility was purchased, which gave Lenovo a boost in the smartphone market.


Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

AMD Cezanne (Zen 3, Ryzen 5000):

R5 7530U: Mobile six core APU with Zen 3 cores clocked at 2 to 4.5 GHz and a Vega graphics adapter with 7 CUs clocked at up to 2 GHz.

Intel Raptor Lake-U:

i5-1335U: Alder Lake based mobile CPU with 2 performance cores and 8 efficient cores. The performance cores offer hyper threading, leading to 12 threads that can be processed. The CPU clocks from 0.9 to 4.6 GHz. The TDP is specified at 15 Watt.

16.00:

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.
