Lenovo’s ThinkPad X13 gets even lighter


Lenovo may have some cool new flippy-screened and solar-powered laptops it’s showing off at Mobile World Congress this year, but it’s also announcing the generational notebook updates you’ll actually be able to buy within the coming months. Some of the new models include a redesigned and super lightweight ThinkPad X13 notebook, the first T-Series convertible 2-in-1 with the ThinkPad T14s, and a refreshed ThinkBook 16p workstation.
First, we have the newest 13.3-inch ThinkPad X13, now Gen 6, that sits as Lenovo’s ultraportable slim business laptop. This time, Lenovo managed to reduce its weight even further from 2.25 pounds on the Gen 5 to just 2.05 pounds (although it could get heavier in some configurations). In comparison, Apple’s lightest M3 MacBook Air weighs 2.7 pounds.
Lenovo is also adding AMD Ryzen AI Pro 300 series processor options alongside Intel (up to Core Ultra 7). You can configure the X13 with up to 16GB LPDDR5 RAM and 2TB SSD, and a replaceable battery option of either 41Wh or 54.7Wh.
The Lenovo ThinkPad X13 Gen 6 will be available in North America starting June 2025 with an expected starting price of $1,139.
Next, Lenovo is turning its T14s notebook it announced last year into a 2-in-1. It has a 14-inch WUXGA touchscreen with up to 500 nits of brightness, and you can configure the device with up to an Intel Core Ultra 7, 64GB of RAM, and 1TB of storage.
The T14s comes with an option for a Wi-Fi 7 upgrade and optional 5G connectivity, plus there’s a user replaceable 58Wh battery. Ports include two Thunderbolt 4, two 5Gbps USB-A, HDMI 2.1, Ethernet, SIM, and an audio jack.
The Lenovo ThinkPad T14s 2-in-1 will be available in North America starting June 2025 with an expected starting price of $1,719. The notebook version will launch alongside the 2-in-1 as well, and will start at $1,674.
Lenovo is also announcing a (not for North America) new desktop replacement ThinkBook 16p Gen 6 that has a high 180W system TDP that can also boost to 200W in “Geek Mode.” With that energy, the laptop can power its discrete NPU, up to Intel Core Ultra 9 mobile processors and Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU, and up to 64GB DDR5 RAM for AI tasks, rendering, and more. For ports, it has two Thunderbolt 4, two 5Gbps USB-A, one 10Gbps USB-A, HDMI 2.1, SD Card reader, SIM slot, and audio jack. It also has a 16-inch 3.2K IPS display, Wi-Fi 7, and a fingerprint reader.
Finally, in May, Lenovo will launch the ThinkPad T14 Gen 6 and T16 Gen 4 (both with Ryzen Pro AI 300 or Intel Core Ultra) in North America, with prices expected to be $1,359 and $1,623 respectively. And sometime in Q2 this year, it will also launch the affordable ThinkPad E14 Gen 7 for $849 and E16 Gen 3 for $859, as well as the ThinkBook 14 2-in-1 Gen 5 for $1,374.
