It isn’t surprising that the Lenovo ThinkPad T16 Gen 1 is a capable workhorse. After all, the ThinkPad name still stands for something and that something is getting work done.

The Lenovo ThinkPad T16 Gen 1 has a 16-inch, 16:10 display. My review unit was equipped with the base non-touch 16-inch display with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 and 300 nits of brightness.

Lenovo's T16 Gen 1 (starts at $1,209.45; $1,899.37 as tested) is a capable productivity partner, but its standard screen is too dark, and its performance doesn't stand out next to its competitors.
