Lenovo ThinkBook 13s Gen 2 review: Solid performer at a sound price

 

The Lenovo ThinkBook 13s Gen 2 makes improvements in all the right places to better appeal to its small-business target.

Speedy productivity performance ; Good battery life ; Solid build quality ; A few welcome security extras ; Attractive aesthetic

Shallow keyboard ; Touchpad could be larger ; Poor graphics performance

Lenovo ThinkBook 13s Gen 2 Review

 

Sleek, sturdy styling ; Affordable price ; Sharp touch screen with 16:10 aspect ratio ; HDMI and Thunderbolt 4 ports

256GB instead of 512GB SSD ; Keyboard not quite up to ThinkPad standards ; No SD or microSD card slot ; AC adapter uses lone USB-C port

Priced and positioned below Lenovo's several sterling lightweight ThinkPads, the ThinkBook 13s Gen 2 is an attractive resident of the $1,000 laptop neighborhood.

Lenovo ThinkBook 13s (Gen 2) review: Budget ThinkPad

 

The ThinkBook 13s is a good value for those who don't want to splurge on an X1 Carbon.

High-res 13-inch display ; Premium aluminum chassis ; Fast speeds (see cons) ; Thunderbolt 4, HDMI and USB-A ports ; Affordable

Shallow keyboard ; Sluggish SSD ; No card slot ; Display could be brighter

Lenovo's ThinkBook 13s is a decent option for small business owners as a sub-$1,000 alternative to the ThinkPad X1 Carbon.

Review: Lenovo's ThinkBook 13s (Gen 2) gets 16:10 displays, Intel Evo badge

 

Lenovo updated its ThinkBook 13s with new display options, new performance hardware, and a smaller design. I've been using the laptop for a week to see if it's worth your time.

16:10 display with 2K resolution ; Strong performance from 11th Gen Intel ; Decent port selection with TB4 ; Competitively priced ; Solid aluminum build

Shallow typing ; Display could be brighter ; Soldered RAM

Bottom line: The ThinkBook line doesn't bring as comfortable of a keyboard or quite as high of a build quality as Lenovo's ThinkPads. However, the ThinkBook 13s is made up of a strong enough combination of other features to make it worth the reasonable...
