Extended availability for a budget ThinkPad
Lenovo has now increased the availability of the ThinkPad E16 Gen 4 to Europe and North America, meaning thier affordable 16-inch notebook is finally landing in these regions after a prior launch in Australia, East Asia and Southeast Asia at the end of May.
Processor options and performance context
The ThinkPad E16 Gen 4 can be configured in Europe with up to a Core Ultra 7 355 or a Core Ultra 5 336H. These chips shoud provide more power than the Core Ultra 7 255U-based Gen 3 model we reviewed in July 2025, though our benchmarks show that the Core Ultra 7 255H-powered sibling (currently $1,289 on Amazon) holds an edge over the Gen 4. Notwithstand this, the laptop also comes with these display options.
Memory, storage and other configurable features
You can get 16 GB or 32 GB of DDR5-5600 RAM and 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB of M.2 2242 PCIe Gen 4 storage. A 48 Wh or 64 Wh battery is configurable, along with a fingerprint reader and Wi-Fi 7. Finishes include ABS or aluminium, but only in Eclipse Black colour. There is no mention of any other color at all sadly.
Pricing and starting specifications
In the UK, the ThinkPad E16 Gen 4 starts at £1,410, while Eurozone pricing ranges between €1,359 and €1,670, including taxes. The US price is $1,399 and in Canada it is CAD $1,939. All base models feature a Core Ultra 5 325 processor and 16 GB of RAM. Lenovo only sells a pre-configured unit in North America with 512 GB of storage, Wi-Fi 7, a fingerprint reader and its most basic display. Further details are available on Lenovos website.
