Lenovo ThinkBook 16p Gen 3 ARH laptop review: The Dell XPS 15 challenger

Now with AMD Zen 3+ Ryzen 9 performance. The 2022 Gen 3 model is a small update to the 2021 Gen 2 model, but some of the changes are significant and even unexpected. How much of a performance difference can users expect between the two models?

The signage makes it easy to locate and identify the ports along the rear

The 16-inch ThinkBook 16p Gen 3 is the successor to last year's ThinkBook 16p Gen 2. It comes with upgraded AMD Zen 3+ CPU options to replace the Zen 3 series in the 2021 model. There are other minor differences as well as explained in this review, but the 2022 model is otherwise visually identical to the 2021 model. We therefore recommend checking out our review on the ThinkBook 16p Gen 2 to learn more about the physical features of the Gen 3.

Our specific test unit comes equipped with the Ryzen 9 6900HX CPU, 90 W GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, 32 GB of LPDDR5 RAM, and a 165 Hz 2560 x 1600 resolution IPS display for approximately $2600 USD retail. Lesser SKUs with a 60 Hz display and a Ryzen 5 6600H or Ryzen 7 6800H CPU are also available.

Direct competitors include other high-end 16-inch multimedia or Nvidia Studio laptops like the HP Envy 16, Dell Inspiron 16 Plus 7620, Acer Swift X 16, or the MSI Creator Z16.

Case

Though the chassis is visually identical to last year's Gen 2 model, there is one easy way to distinguish the Gen 3 model from Gen 2: the presence of an HDMI port along the rear. The Gen 2 model carries no HDMI port in comparison.

Display

Our 165 Hz display is an upgrade from the 60 Hz panel on our Gen 2 test unit. It also offers faster response times, brighter backlight, and the same full sRGB coverage. There are unfortunately no OLED or P3 panel options at the moment.

No edge-to-edge glass or glossy option. G-Sync is supported

Picture is slightly grainy due to the matte overlay

The display comes pre-calibrated against the sRGB standard. Average grayscale and color deltaE values are only 1.8 and 1.32, respectively, and so an end-user calibration is not necessary.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
11.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 6 ms rise
11.2 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 5.2 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.4 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 20 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (22.7 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
15.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 7.2 ms rise
15.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 8.4 ms fall
The screen shows good response rates in our tests, but may be too slow for competitive gamers. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.25 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 19 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (35.8 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM not detected

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 19454 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Outdoor visibility is decent if under shade. The matte overlay and relatively bright 500-nit backlight help to minimize glare more so than with a glossy alternative.

Wide IPS viewing angles. Colors and contrast degrade from extreme angles

Performance

Testing Conditions

We set our unit to Performance mode via Windows and Extreme Performance mode via the Lenovo Vantage software prior to running any benchmarks below. It's recommended to become familiar with Lenovo Vantage as it is the control center for updates and settings as shown by the screenshots below.

Processor

CPU performance is a mixed bag. Though the Ryzen 9 6900HX is certainly one of the fastest mobile CPUs from AMD, performance is essentially identical to the Ryzen 9 5900HX. In fact, it's barely any faster than the Ryzen 7 6800H. Downgrading to the Ryzen 5 6600H configuration will reduce single-thread and multi-thread performance by about 5 percent and 20 percent, respectively.
