Lenovo ThinkBook Plus G3: Innovative laptop with 21:10 display is now orderable in Europe

Lenovo has started offering the ThinkBook Plus G3 in Europe, having unveiled the laptop in January at CES 2022. As we discussed at the time, the ThinkBook Plus G3 has a 17.3-inch display that operates at 3,072 x 1,440 pixels with a 21:10 aspect ratio. While that would be a selling point itself, Lenovo has also included a secondary display next to the keyboard for note-taking. For reference, the secondary display measures 8-inches across, making it considerably wider than a dedicated number pad.

Additionally, the machine relies on the Core i7-12700H, an Alder Lake-H series processor with 14 cores, 20 threads, an Iris Xe Graphics G7 iGPU (96 EUs) and a 45 W TDP. Moreover, the laptop contains LPDDR5 RAM, a PCIe Gen 4 SSD and a 70 Wh battery, although the latter is unlikely to last long between charges with two displays and a 45 W processor under the hood. Also, it is worth noting that the ThinkBook Plus G3 is rather hefty at 410 mm wide, 228 mm deep, 17.9 mm thick and at least 2 kg in weight.

Ultimately, the ThinkBook Plus G3 is only suitable for those who are right-handed or ambidextrous. As far as we are aware, Lenovo has no plans to produce a left-handed version of the ThinkBook Plus G3. Currently, the ThinkBook Plus G3 starts at €1,823 with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD. Alternatively, the machine is available with 32 GB of RAM but prices vary up to an eye-watering €2,500. Incidentally, the machine remains on sale in the US in three configurations, including a version with the Core i5-12500H and 512 GB of storage.
