MagyarLenovo ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD Laptop Review: Already very good ThinkPad even better with Ryzen 6000
A review of a 2022 ThinkPad in 2023 - sounds like a contradiction, but it can make sense. Today's review device, the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 AMD may be "yesterday's tech", but that does not mean its bad. The successor of this compact business laptop, the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 4, is not available in its AMD version yet. Enough of a reason to take one last look at the older variant - maybe it could be worth buying in a coming discounted sale.
Since this is an update of an existing design, we will not waste time on another description of the design, the input devices and the connectivity. Detailed info on these topics can be found in the review of the ThinkPad X13 Gen 2.

Connectivity
Compared with the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2 AMD port selection is basically unchanged. New is the addition of USB4, which means Thunderbolt compatibility.
Communication
Notably weak are the upload transfer rates of the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD or rather of its Qualcomm WiFi solution. The download rates on the other hand are perfectly good.

Webcam
In comparison to the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2, there are no changes to the quality of the 1080p webcam.
Display: screen brightness of the Lenovo laptop could be better
The selection of 13.3 inch screens remains unchanged compared to the 2022 model. All available screens have a matte surface, the 16:10 aspect ratio and a refresh rate of 60 Hz:
- 1,920 x 1,200 (WUXGA), 300 cd/m², 72 % NTSC
- 1,920 x 1,200 (WUXGA), 300 cd/m², 72 % NTSC, On-Cell Touch
- 1,920 x 1,200 (WUXGA), 500 cd/m², 72 % NTSC, PrivacyGuard
- 2,560 x 1,600 (WQXGA), 400 cd/m², 100 % sRGB, Low Power, Dolby Vision
The measured average brightness of 321 cd/m² is slightly above the advertised 300 cd/m² threshold. Notable: The competition in the form of Dell and HP offers much brighter screens. An average of 830 cd/m² like the HP EliteBook 835 G9 offers is not really needed on the base panel, but it would be nice if Lenovo would grant the X13 brighter screens - without forcing the user to upgrade to the WQXGA or PrivacyGuard panels. 400 cd/m² plus X like the Dell Latitude 7330 offers would be reasonable.

* ... smaller is better
The panel is already pretty well adjusted in terms of colors ex factory. The low average deltaE of just 1.3, measured with CalMan and the X-Rite i1Pro 2 Colorimeter, is testament to that. After a calibration with the X-Rite i1Profiler, the screen becomes slightly more color accurate (1.0 instead of 1.3). The color profile we created for this purpose is available to download for free, as always.
In terms of color gamut coverage, the panel of the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD is nearly completely covering the sRGB color gamut. It is usable for basic photo editing tasks.
Outdoors, the ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 is usable, thanks to the matte screen surface. As before: we would appreciate a brighter screen, especially for a laptop of this mobile device class.

Performance: AMD Ryzen 5 delivers good performance
Lenovo sells the ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 AMD with two different AMD CPUs, with the available choices being the AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 6650U and the Ryzen 7 Pro 6850U. Depending on the chosen CPU, either the Radeon 660M or the Radeon 680M serve as the GPU solution. The RAM is always soldered, there are variants with 8, 16 or 32 GB LPDDR5-6400 memory. Not soldered is the M.2 2280 SSD, Lenovo offers a max of 2 TB SSD storage.
Test conditions
As usual for Lenovo ThinkPads, there is no proprietary OEM software to manage the power profiles. Instead, the Windows energy profiles are utilized to manage the power limits (PL1 = performance under sustained load, PL2 = short term boost performance).
- More battery efficiency: PL1 12 W / PL2 12 W
- Better performance: PL1 17 W / PL2 25 W
- Best performance: PL1 22,5 W / PL2 30 W
Processor
The AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 6650U is a U processor of the Rembrandt generation, meant for compact business laptops. As a "Pro" CPU, this chip directly competes with Intel's vPro processors. The typical TDP is rated for 15 W, the CPU has six cores and twelve threads. Comprehensive benchmark comparisons with other CPUs are possible with our CPU comparison tool.
The performance of the ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 AMD is slightly better than the predecessor. The Intel based models ThinkPad X13 G3 Intel and Dell Latitude 7330 offer a better single core performance and partially a better boost performance, but they pale when it comes to sustained multicore testing. Meanwhile, the HP EliteBook 835 G9 offers a huge leap in power, but this model is equipped with the octacore chip AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 6850U, which is also available for the X13 Gen 3 AMD.
CPU performance is not throttled in battery mode.

Storage
The M.2 2280 SSD of the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD comes from Samsung. The PM9A1 has a capacity of 512 GB and is connected via the NVMe PCIe 4.0 standard. This SSD could be even faster, but it still runs faster in the X13 G3 compared with the SSDs in the comparison devices.

Graphics card
The AMD Radeon 660M is the standard graphics solution of the Ryzen 5 class. As an integrated GPU, the Radeon 660M does not have its own memory, it has to rely on the main system memory. The logical conclusion: the performance of the GPU depends on the speed of the RAM and if the RAM runs in single or dual channel mode.
In the ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD, the iGPU can rely on fast LPDDR5-6400 memory, which runs in dual channel mode. Those are pretty much ideal conditions, and the ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 is far ahead of the Intel models with i5 and its own predecessor. Again, the HP EliteBook 835 G9 with the stronger Radeon 680M comes out ahead of the ThinkPad.
This business laptop is not made for gaming, recent games are still playable though - on low.
Like the CPU, the GPU delivers 100 percent of its performance in battery mode.

Emissions: ThinkPad X13 is cool and quiet
Noise
The Lenovo ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD is a rather quiet laptop. In pretty much every case, it is less noisy than the competition. It should be noted though that the direct predecessor X13 Gen 2 AMD was even less noisy.
We did detect a faint hissing noise when using the ThinkPad, but it was only noticeable when holding an ear directly over the keyboard. Sensitive ears might still be bothered though.

Battery life
The internal battery still has a capacity of 54.7 Wh, though there also is a variant with 41 Wh. The model we tested achieved great battery runtimes: The 12 hours and 30 minutes in the WiFi test (150 cd/m² screen brightness) are already formidable, but the 10 hours and 40 minutes in the same test with max screen brightness are even better in relative terms. The ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD is a device capable of lasting the entire workday.

Pros
Cons
Verdict: ThinkPad X13 AMD still a very good subnotebook
With the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 AMD, the manufacturer builds upon an already very good laptop, the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 2. The new model has all the aspects that made the old one good, but adds USB4 and Rembrandt. Logically, it is no big wonder that the new model also reaches a very good rating.
In addition to the existing strengths, like the robust and lightweight chassis, the agreeable input devices and the good connectivity options, the new model has an improved battery life. The ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 achieves a good performance and still runs cool and quiet, which is not a given when compared with the Intel competition.
Of course, there still is room for improvements. The screen brightness could be better, especially when taking the competitors into account. We would also like to see a higher-res webcam as well as upgradable RAM. Also, the WiFi upload rates were rather low.
Compact, performant, long battery life, cool and quiet - the Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 3 AMD combines many positive attributes.
That is mostly high-level criticism. If you are searching for a fast, ultra-mobile work-device, which lasts the whole day, the ThinkPad X13 G3 AMD should definitely be a contender. The same is pretty much true for the HP EliteBook 835 G9 - buyers of the Dell Latitude 7330 have to contend with Intel CPUs, which deliver a better single core performance, but run less efficient otherwise. The Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 4 with AMD Phoenix is already on the horizon, but not available yet - buying the predecessor is definitely not a bad choice.
