Lenovo Begins ThinkPad X13 Gen 7 Sales in North America
Lenovo has started selling the ThinkPad X13 Gen 7 in North America after unveiling the laptop earlier this year. Currently, the company is only selling Intel Panther Lake-based models in Canada and the US. However, AMD-based alternatives are on the way, given recent releases in Australia, East Asia and Southeast Asia.
Limited Availability and Future Plans
Likewise, Lenovo restricts the ThinkPad X13 Gen 7 to a single preconfigured unit at the time of writing. Presumably, the company will expand availability further soon. There is no word yet on when this will happen, though.
Core Specs and Battery Life
Setting that aside, the ThinkPad X13 Gen 7 currently comes with the Core Ultra 5 325, an 8-core processor with a 4-core Xe3 iGPU at its disposal. Additionally, the 13.3-inch laptop contains 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM clocked at 7,467 MT/s and 512 GB of PCIe Gen 4 storage. Lenovo’s higher capacity 54.7 Wh battery is included too, which the company claims will last up to 30 hours in local video playback at 150 nits and over 15 hours in MobileMark 30 at 250 nits.
Connectivity and Display
On top of that, the company equips a Bluetooth 5.4- and Wi-Fi 7-compatible modem. Moreover, a 1200p IPS display is present with 400 nits peak brightness and 100% sRGB colour space coverage, but only a 60 Hz refresh rate. All in all, Lenovo charges $1,599 for this configuration in the US and CAD 2,219 in Canada. Please see our ThinkPad X13 Gen 6 review for our thoughts on last year’s model (curr. $1,319 on Amazon).
