A laptop that meets you where you are

With up to AMD Ryzen™ PRO R7 6000 Series Mobile Processor, the ThinkPad Z16 AMD delivers some serious power—8 cores, 16 threads, and 12 GPU cores mean there’s not much this laptop can’t do. Enjoy our best videoconferencing, AI-powered audio enhancements, and epic battery life. Combined with the responsiveness of up to Windows 11 Pro, this powerhouse blazes through tasks lightning-fast.

Looks good—feels even better

The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop takes sustainability to a new level with its sleek Arctic Grey 75% recycled-aluminium chassis. A glass haptic TouchPad rather than the mylar trackpad on previous ThinkPad laptops improves usability and navigation with increased size. Plus, packaging on the ThinkPad Z16 AMD is made from a bamboo-sugarcane fiber that’s 100% rapid-renewable and compostable. Going green never felt—or looked—so good.

Raises the bar on collaboration

The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop features a Communications Bar front and center. Sure, it’s got a camera—and with FHD infrared technology, it’s a really good one at that. But with adjustable settings, integrated AI-based noise-cancelling mics with Dolby Voice®, and facial-recognition login capability, it’s truly a collaboration tool for interacting with the world. There’s even an e-shutter that turns off the camera with the press of a key.

Redesigned keyboard that even takes notes

Renowned for comfort and navigation, our ThinkPad keyboard just got even better. A glass haptic TouchPad. A dual-function TrackPoint that you can still use like a mouse, and you can double-tap to launch the Communications Quick Menu settings to optimise audio-visuals. There’s even a Dictation Toolbar for handy speech-to-text transcription—how’s that for taking notes?

Ground-breaking security technology

All of our ThinkPad laptops include ThinkShield, a suite of security solutions engineered to safeguard your business. The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop also includes ground-breaking chip-to-cloud technology with Microsoft Pluton, resulting from a partnership between AMD and Microsoft—working in conjunction with data encryption and biometrics. Plus, an electronic shutter controlled by the F9 key ensures the camera stays off.
