Lenovo releases new 16-inch ThinkPad with 120 Hz OLED display and 96 GB LPCAMM2 RAM
Almost two months have passed since Lenovo unveiled the ThinkPad P16s Gen 5 as a successor to its older Gen 4 model (curr. $1,849 on Amazon). Announced during Nvidia GTC 2026, the laptop was slated to arrive in May with Intel Panther Lake processors. Additionally, Lenovo claimed that AMD Gorgon Point options would be joining in June.
While we await AMD models, Lenovo has now released the Panther Lake-based ThinkPad P16s i Gen 5 with a choice between Core Ultra 7 356H, Core Ultra 7 366H vPro, Core Ultra 9 386H vPro and Core Ultra X9 388H vPro processors. Also, the 16-inch laptop can be configured with Nvidia's RTX Pro 500 Blackwell (6 GB) or RTX Pro 1000 Blackwell (8 GB) discrete GPUs.
On top of that, Lenovo complements these GPUs with up to 96 GB of LPCAMM2 RAM, 2 TB PCIe Gen 5 storage and an 1800p (2.8K) OLED display that combines 500 nits peak brightness with a 30-120 Hz variable refresh rate. Moreover, one can configure other features like a Snapdragon X61 5G modem, a Smart Card Reader and a 90 Wh battery instead of the 60 Wh equivalent that Lenovo includes by default.
Currently, the ThinkPad P16s i Gen 5 starts at between €2,219 and €2,730 depending on the member state. Meanwhile, the new 16-inch laptop retails for £2,200 in the UK, featuring the same Core Ultra 7 356H processor, 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage as its Eurozone counterparts. Pricing starts at AUD 4,249 in Australia. Lenovo has not confirmed how much the ThinkPad P16s i Gen 5 will cost in North America yet, though.
