22AY002NZA
The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 combines Lenovo’s proven ThinkPad business platform with Intel’s Core Ultra Series 2 architecture, providing a powerful and efficient solution for professionals, businesses and hybrid workers. Its spacious 16-inch 16:10 display, full-size keyboard and comprehensive connectivity make the 22AY002NZA particularly well suited to Microsoft 365, spreadsheets, accounting, administration, presentations and demanding everyday multitasking.
At its core is the Intel® Core™ Ultra 7 258V processor, featuring 8 cores and 8 threads in a configuration of 4 Performance cores and 4 Low Power Efficient cores. With boost frequencies of up to 4.80GHz and 12MB Intel® Smart Cache, it provides responsive performance while maintaining the power efficiency required from a modern mobile business platform.
The processor incorporates an Intel® AI Boost NPU delivering up to 47 TOPS of dedicated AI performance. This enables the ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 to qualify as a Microsoft Copilot+ PC, providing hardware acceleration for supported AI workloads and next-generation Windows AI experiences.
Graphics performance is handled by integrated Intel® Arc™ Graphics 140V, providing significantly stronger integrated graphics capabilities than traditional entry-level Intel graphics solutions. It is well suited to business productivity, multimedia, high-resolution external displays and GPU-accelerated applications that do not require a dedicated professional or gaming GPU.
The notebook features 32GB LPDDR5X-8533 dual-channel memory, providing high memory bandwidth for intensive multitasking. The memory is integrated directly into the platform and is not upgradeable, with 32GB representing the maximum memory capacity of this Lunar Lake configuration.
Storage is provided by a 512GB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe Opal 2.0 SSD, delivering fast Windows startup, responsive application loading and quick file access. The Lunar Lake platform provides one M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 storage slot and supports up to a 1TB M.2 2280 SSD.
The 16-inch WUXGA (1920 × 1200) IPS display features a productivity-focused 16:10 aspect ratio, 60Hz refresh rate, 300-nit brightness, 45% NTSC colour coverage and an anti-glare surface. The larger 16:10 workspace provides additional vertical screen area for documents, spreadsheets, web applications and professional software.
Connectivity includes Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX211, Bluetooth® 5.3 and integrated Gigabit Ethernet. This configuration provides two Thunderbolt™ 4 / USB4 40Gbps ports with USB Power Delivery and DisplayPort™ 2.1, alongside two USB-A ports, HDMI 2.1, RJ-45 Ethernet and a 3.5mm headphone/microphone combination jack.
For professional meetings and hybrid collaboration, the ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 features an FHD 1080p + IR Hybrid camera with privacy shutter, dual-array microphones and 2 × 2W stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos® and audio by HARMAN. The IR camera enables Windows Hello facial recognition, while a Match-on-Chip fingerprint reader integrated into the power button provides an additional biometric authentication option.
The backlit ThinkPad keyboard with numeric keypad is particularly useful for spreadsheets, accounting and data-entry workloads. Security features include Discrete TPM 2.0, ThinkShield technologies, fingerprint authentication, IR facial recognition and a Kensington® Nano Security Slot. The notebook has also passed MIL-STD-810H military testing for added confidence in demanding professional environments.
Finished in professional Black, the ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 features an aluminium top and bottom chassis and starts at approximately 1.61kg. A 48Wh integrated battery and 65W USB-C power adapter complete the mobile business platform.
