Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)
| Screen flickering / PWM detected | 25000 Hz | ≤ 20 % brightness setting |  |
The display backlight flickers at 25000 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 20 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting. The frequency of 25000 Hz is quite high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8715 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured. | |||

Pros
Cons
ThinkBook系列不会取代已建立的ThinkPad产品线，在测试ThinkBook 13s之后，这一点更加明显。相反，ThinkBook系列是对Lenovo笔记本电脑产品的补充，应该会吸引那些被ThinkPad拒之门外的人。特别是，喜欢MacBook Pro设计的人可能比对传统的ThinkPad感兴趣的人更多。
ThinkBook 13s和其ThinkPad同类产品之间最明显的区别之一是外壳设计。银灰色铝制底盘虽然看起来不像现代的ThinkPad，但质感十足，同时又小巧轻便。从目前来说，我们尚不确定从长远来看，ThinkBook是否会像ThinkPad一样坚固耐用，但是类似的紧凑轻巧的ThinkPad却比ThinkBook 13s高级得多。不过，我们喜欢Lenovo在后者的屏幕上所做的事情，其磨砂面板比ThinkPad L390明亮，同时也具有更好的色彩空间覆盖范围。 HDR支持也很不错。我们的评测单元的续航时间和低外壳温度也值得称赞，并且在需要时可以升级RAM。
ThinkBook 13s最大的问题是它的接口。具体来说，我们指的是它的安全性和通信功能以及端口的选择，这使ThinkBook 13s无法与这三个类别中的任何一个在现实世界中的商务笔记本电脑竞争。尽管我们并不期望联想为它配备Thunderbolt 3端口，但我们无法理解为什么公司决定不支持Type-C充电。相反，我们必须始终使用专有的超薄电源连接器，这带来了不便。一年保修也是ThinkBook 13s一个缺点，巨大的屏幕下巴也是如此。
IdeaPad高级版：ThinkBook 13s结合了ThinkPad的一些功能，例如磨砂显示屏和ThinkPad与IdeaPad硬件。对于买家来说，ThinkBook 13s可能是一个有吸引力的产品，但它不是ThinkPad的替代品。
总体而言，联想ThinkBook 13s是一台不错的笔记本电脑，但更像IdeaPad而不是ThinkPad。它的键盘和触控板就是证明，ThinkBook不仅缺少TrackPoint，而且缺乏我们对ThinkPad笔记本电脑所期望的高质量打字体验。简而言之，对于普通公众或学生而言，ThinkBook 13s可能是成熟品牌的有趣替代品，但如果您需要商用笔记本电脑，则不是一个合适的选择。话虽如此，如果您愿意放弃它所缺少的ThinkPad功能，那么还有比ThinkBook 13s更好的13.3英寸笔记本电脑。
