16-inch IPS screen

One of the main highlights of this model is, without a doubt, its wide 16 inch screen, which has an aspect ratio of 16:10, providing more useful vertical space compared to traditional screens. Image quality is ensured by the use of an IPS LCD panel, known for delivering consistent colors and wide viewing angles. Users can choose between four different configuration options for this screen:

• A solution with FHD+ resolution, 300 nits brightness and 45% coverage of the NTSC spectrum;
• A touch-sensitive variant with the same features as above, adding blue light protection;
• Another FHD+ version that increases brightness to 400 nits and reaches the entire sRGB color space, also incorporating protection against blue light;
• And, for those who demand maximum image quality, a 4K UHD configuration, offering 800 nits of brightness, full coverage of the DCI-P3 color space, as well as HDR400 and Dolby Vision support.

Regarding connectivity, the device is well served. The ThinkPad P16v includes two Thunderbolt 4-enabled USB-C ports, offering lightning-fast transfer speeds and support for high-resolution external displays.

Furthermore, it has a traditional USB-A port, HDMI 2.1 output for connecting to screens and projectors, Gigabit Ethernet for access to high-speed wired networks, in addition to Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 for next-generation wireless connectivity.

Advanced hardware

Inside the chassis of the ThinkPad P16v resides a suite of tailor-made hardware to exploit the full potential of the processors Intel Core Ultra. The most advanced model is driven by Core Ultra 9 185Hwhich has 16 cores and an impressive 22 threadsconfigured to handle multitasking and intensive applications effectively.

Thanks to the inclusion of a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) powered by Intel AI Boost technology, Lenovo highlights that the ThinkPad P16v can be considered a true “AI PC”. This indicates that the machine is capable of performing tasks related to artificial intelligence locally, optimizing work with data and machine learning.

Furthermore, other equally important technical specifications include up to 96GB of DDR5 memory with an impressive 5,600 MHz, SSD storage options that can reach 4 TB, using high-performance SSDs, in addition to a GPU Nvidia RTX Available for advanced graphics.

Users also have the practicality of a dedicated numeric keypad and a generous 96 Whr battery, promising long hours of uninterrupted use. There’s also a fingerprint reader, a Nano Kensington slot for greater physical security and, to complete the package, an optional webcam with infrared capability. Without forgetting, of course, the iconic TrackPoint, the small red button strategically located in the middle of the keyboard that serves as an alternative mouse and is a true symbol of the ThinkPad lineage.
