80% Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 Review: Made For Work

This is a review where I don't feel I can give a recommendation to the masses. If I were forced to, I'd hedge towards yes, this computer is worth it, only because it technically can do everything just about anyone could want — and more. The problem is that the "and more" is a whole bucket of wasted money if the Lenovo's not put to work. Overall, the ThinkPad is sticking to the field it knows — business. And if you're getting the ThinkPad for business, you'd be cheating yourself by not getting the vPro-supportive processor. I have to assume that this ThinkPad is muscled up for programs related to engineering, design, and the like. If you need a beastly machine that looks at intensive independent software vendor apps meant for modeling, simulation, rendering, and so forth — and doesn't bat an eye, the ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 is your guy. As a mere mortal, I balk at the price of a souped-up P16 Gen 1 — you're looking at $6,000+, with the baseline price being closer to $1,600. Heavy-hitting tech comes with heavy price tags. Outside of being a semi-permanent workstation fixture for those niche professionals, the sparkle of this slugger dims significantly, in my opinion, especially given the life expectancy of Windows computers and the fact that Lenovo's warranty for this laptop only covers three years. Impracticality in portability and unremarkable battery life when severed from the power cord ... The ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 is just not what my workflow and leisurely gaming need. However, it is absolutely worth it for anyone looking from a purely professional standpoint, and a very demanding professional standpoint at that.

If you're looking for a mobile workstation to allow flexibility of workspace or portability while not compromising on power, take a look at the Lenovo ThinkPad P16. Despite having the form factor of a laptop, the P16 still puts out absurd performance, ensuring your projects can get done on a job site, at the office, on the go, or at home.

It's only a few months since we gave the MSI CreatorPro X17 one of our rare 4.5-star ratings and our top mobile workstation honor, but the Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 matches that achievement in a more premium overall build. Deciding between the two is difficult, mainly because the MSI costs a lot less, but IT departments often acquire ThinkPads in volume deals, and individual price isn't a primary concern when it comes to ultra-elite workstations. Ultimately, its build quality, screen, and keyboard give our latest Editors' Choice nod to the Lenovo—it's enough of a monster on almost all fronts that it simply cannot be ignored.

If you have the money to blow, the Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 is a solid all-around pick, especially if you’re stuck at a desk most of the day. The display and keyboard make great company, and when you’re alone, you can rock out to bangin’ speakers. But what if you want longevity? I recommend going for the Precision 5470; its battery life soars into the double digits. However, it’s a smaller laptop and slightly weaker. Need power? The Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 is your beast.

Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen 1 review – we need some answers!

So, it is definitely not easy to describe this machine in simple words. One feature that remained kind of under the shadows in our review was the sound quality. Its speakers are amazing, albeit there are only two of them. The usability of the device is also great, thanks to its fantastic keyboard and decent touchpad. In reality, we lost 6% of the battery for 30 minutes of gaming. This equals to about 188 mWh lost for 1 minute – slightly less than the 210 mWh of battery “bleed” we got from the IdeaPad Gaming 3. In addition to that, we have to say that the power adapter got pretty warm too – temperature readings showed more than 55°C. On the bright side, you get a huge port selection. Two Thunderbolt 4 connectors are paired with another USB Type-C 3.2 (Gen. 2) port and an HDMI connector for a total of four external display options. Privacy is ensured by an IR face recognition scanner, a privacy shutter above the camera, and a fingerprint reader. Overall, this is a beastly machine. But as with many powerful devices (namely workstations), you have to put up with some constraints. We would advise Lenovo (once again) to ship this laptop with a 270W charger – this will put less strain on the power adapter, thus reducing the heat, and it will definitely prevent battery discharging during gaming.
