Lenovo ThinkPad Z16 Ryzen 9 PRO 7940HS

With AMD Ryzen™ PRO 7040 H Series mobile processors, the Lenovo ThinkPad Z16 laptop delivers some serious power. Plus, with the choice of higher-end integrated or discrete graphics, there’s not much this machine can’t do. Enjoy our best videoconferencing, AI-powered audio enhancements, and epic battery life. Combined with the ultraresponsive Windows 11 Pro option, this powerhouse blazes through tasks lightning-fast.

All ThinkPad laptops include ThinkShield, a suite of security solutions engineered to safeguard your business. Biometrics provide extra protection on the ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 laptop — from the fingerprint reader to the facial recognition software that works with the infrared (IR) camera to log in with your smile. AMD Memory Guard helps secure your entire system memory. Plus, to further assure your privacy, an electronic shutter controlled by the F9 key keeps the camera off when you want it to be.

A laptop that feels as good as it looks, the eco-focused ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 reflects your commitment to the planet. On the outside, it boasts a sleek Arctic Grey recycled-aluminum chassis and glass haptic trackpad. Inside, there are components made from post-consumer recycled plastics, while the manufacturing process uses low-temp soldering to reduce emissions and leave a smaller carbon footprint. Packaging is entirely plastic-free, made from a bamboo-sugarcane fiber that’s 100% rapid-renewable and compostable. And of course it’s ENERGY STAR^® certified, too.

Front and center on the ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 laptop is a Communications Bar. It houses a great camera with FHD resolution and infrared technology, plus AI-based noise-cancelling mics with Dolby Voice^® and adjustable settings. Enjoy the user-facing Dolby Atmos™ speakers, for high fidelity sound. There’s even an e-shutter key to turn off the camera, instantly. Optimized audio-video makes this device a true collaboration tool.  One that, should working from anywhere prevent you from being in the same room as your team, delivers the next best thing — or maybe even the best thing.

We use the US Department of Defense’s MIL-STD 810H standards to strike a perfect balance of value and durability for our ThinkPad laptops. We test against 12 military-grade standards, 26 procedures, and more than 200 quality checks to ensure they run in extreme conditions. From the Arctic wilderness to desert dust storms, these tests cover harsh environmental variables, including temperature, pressure, humidity, vibration testing, and more.

Renowned for its comfort and typing experience, the ThinkPad keyboard on the Z16 Gen 2 laptop truly excels. It has a glass haptic trackpad, which feels sleek to the touch and provides effortless navigation. Even better is the dual-function TrackPoint — our beloved red dot — use it like a mouse or to launch the TrackPoint Quick Menu settings. Simply double-tap for quick access to camera and mic optimization. There’s even a Dictation Toolbar for handy speech-to-text transcription — how’s that for taking notes?!

With all the thought we’ve put into the ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2 laptop, it’s no wonder the choice of displays includes a premium WQUXGA OLED panel. You’ll enjoy rich details and vibrant colors on a 16″ touchscreen with Dolby Vision^® and 100% color gamut — especially useful for work where every pixel counts. Or for a more efficient, low-power display, go with the WUXGA, which includes a choice of touchscreen, and looks impressive in its own right. All options use low blue-light technology to help prevent eye fatigue.
