New cooling features, stunning visuals    
The ThinkPad P16 mobile workstation has the industry's latest features—offering impressive functionality and great looks. To keep cool and quiet over long work sessions, it's got a dual-bypass design with dual fans, vapor chamber cooling, a keyboard air intake, and rear vents. Visually, you can choose from high-res FHD+ IPS to UHD+ OLED displays, one with DisplayHDR™ 500 True Black.

Strong security—with easy recovery options
Built with security in mind, the ThinkPad P16 comes preloaded with Lenovo ThinkShield solutions. The discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) encrypts your data, a self-healing BIOS can restore system settings if needed, and an optional fingerprint reader enables secure, one-touch log-ins. There's even a sliding privacy shutter to physically close the webcam.

Rugged quality that endures
A mobile workstation needs to perform wherever your day takes you—sometimes in extreme conditions. So, like all ThinkPad laptops, Lenovo tests the P16 against 12 military-grade requirements and 200+ quality checks. It can handle whatever life throws your way, from Arctic-like freezing temperatures to desert-style dust storms to day-to-day bumps, drops, and spills.

A mobile workstation with a modern look    
At 16″, the ThinkPad P16 offers a slick, modern design in a portable size. It’s got standout looks, too, with a Storm Grey cover, red accent lines, and narrow-bezel display with a roomy 16:10 aspect ratio. In addition, the redesigned vents send hot air out the back of the system, not the sides.
