Lenovo’s inexpensive ThinkPad E-series offers solid business features and good input devices. The third generation is now equipped with powerful Ryzen 5000 processors from AMD and finally brighter displays. Is the new E14 G3 the ThinkPad with the best price-performance ratio?

Now, this is impressive. Even the lowest spec version of this laptop is capable of outperforming devices equipped with the Core i7-1165G7. That’s what quad-core CPUs built on a 7nm architecture are capable of. And if you add a memory stick in the free slot inside, the graphics performance becomes pretty competitive as well. To be honest, the device is decent. Especially for its business purposes. It still has one of the best keyboards on the market – one that also features spill resistance. And a really smart choice would be going for the Ryzen 3 5300U since it has both power efficiency and performance.

Comment
Lenovo: Lenovo ( "Le" as in the English word legend and "novo" (Latin) for new) was founded in 1984 as a Chinese computer trading company. From 2004, the company has been the largest laptop manufacturer in China and got the fourth largest manufacturer worldwide after the acquisition of IBM's PC division in 2005. In addition to desktops and notebooks, the company also produces monitors, projectors, servers, etc.
In 2011, Lenovo acquired the majority of Medion AG, a European computer hardware manufacturer. In 2014, Lenovo took over Motorola Mobility, which gave them a boost in the smartphone market.
From 2014 to 2016 Lenovo's market share in the global notebook market was 20-21%, ranking second behind HP. However, the distance decreased gradually. In the smartphone market, Lenovo did not belong to the Top 5 global manufacturers in 2016.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.
