The Lenovo ThinkPad E14 is an office laptop, which is not as slim as the devices from the X-series and there are not as many features as on the T-series, but the laptops often cost only half the price and they offer all the important things you need to work. Lenovo also fixes one major complaint and equips the new ThinkPad E14 G3 with brighter displays and there is also an optional screen with 100% sRGB coverage.

You also get brand-new Ryzen 5000 mobile processors from AMD, which promise a decent performance boost. We review the model 20Y7003SGE with the Ryzen 5 5500U, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB PCIe-SSD storage, and the 1080p screen with a brightness of 300 nits for 870 Euros. The price drops to 790 Euros when you have access to Lenovo’s Campus program or even 640 Euros when you do not need the Windows operating system.

Case - ThinkPad with Aluminum Chassis

Lenovo did not change the chassis and the black design might appear a bit boring, but it is definitely functional. You can notice the low price in terms of materials because you get a combination of plastic and aluminum (lid and bottom panel). The stability is still good and you cannot twist or dent the base unit (no creaking sounds). The lid itself is also sturdy, but we can quickly provoke picture distortions with concentrated pressure on the back and twisting attempts. The hinges are well adjusted and there is only minor bouncing.

The smooth surfaces are nice to touch and do not appear cheap, but they are extremely susceptible to fingerprints. The device will quickly look pretty ugly when you do not clean it regularly. There is no maintenance hatch, but you can remove the whole bottom panel (see Maintenance section). All in all, the chassis leaves a good impression, especially considering the price.

The E14 G3 is the heaviest and largest device in our comparison group; it is noticeably deeper in terms of footprint. The USB-C power adapter tips the scale at around 360 grams.

Connectivity - USB-C and USB 2.0

The port situation is still the same, even though we would appreciate some updates. You get a USB-C port including charging functionality as well as DisplayPort and a full-size HDMI output, but a slow USB 2.0 port is not really appropriate for a laptop in 2021. More expensive ThinkPad models (like the T-series) definitely have an advantage in this regard.

Communication

Lenovo uses a Wi-Fi 6 module from RealTek, but the transfer rates are lower compared to last year’s model, which was equipped with the Intel AX200. It is now a 1x1 module (160 MHz) with a maximum transfer rate of 866 Mbps. The signal quality was always good during our review period. The E14 G3 also offers a Gigabit Ethernet port, but there are no WWAN modules available.

Webcam

As expected, you only get a simple 720p webcam (0.9 MP) with a mechanical shutter (ThinkShutter), which takes pretty bad pictures. There is also an IR camera for facial recognition via Windows Hello.

Maintenance

Similar to previous ThinkPad E laptops, you can remove the whole bottom cover, but the process is not simple. The panel is still extremely tight after you have removed all the screws and there are plenty of plastic clips that can break easily. Other ThinkPad models are much easier to open.

Once inside, you get access to the two M.2-SSDs (2280 & 2242) as well as the Wi-Fi module. You can replace the memory module as well, but the single slot is hidden underneath an additional cover.

Warranty

The warranty once again shows the entry-level position of the ThinkPad E14, because our test unit only comes with a one-year warranty. You can still extend the duration for an additional price. Some models of the E14 are also sold with a two-year warranty.

Input Devices - Currently the best ThinkPad Keyboard

The ThinkPad E14 G3 still gets the familiar and excellent keyboard with 1.8 mm travel and rich feedback. Despite the low price, the E14 has a big advantage over much more expensive ThinkPad X models, which are now equipped with shallower and flatter keyboards. You will definitely be happy when you write a lot and the E14 G3 also comes with a two-stage background illumination.

While Lenovo equips some of its new models with wider touchpads, but the E14 is still equipped with the narrower version (10 x 5.6 cm). The handling does not cause any problems and the clicking sound leaves a high-quality impression. The additional TrackPoint buttons on the other hand are a bit wobbly.

Display - E14 is available with 100% sRGB

The displays have always been a problem of the inexpensive ThinkPad E14-series. The picture quality was okay for an office laptop, but the brightness was hardly competitive at around 250 nits. Lenovo now improved the situation, and our test unit is the default IPS screen with an advertised brightness of 300 nits, and our test unit even manages 330 nits. There is also an optional panel with full sRGB coverage if you want to edit pictures. Some regions also get an inexpensive TN panel with a brightness of 250 nits, but we would not recommend this option.

The subjective picture impression of the matte panel is good and bright areas do not look grainy. The contrast ratio is more than 1300:1 and we cannot detect PWM flickering. The response times are inconspicuous, but there is noticeable backlight bleeding on a dark screen, especially in the upper left corner as well as the lower right edge. The viewing angle stability of the IPS panel is good.

* ... kleiner is beter

We analyzed the display with the professional CalMAN software and the grayscale is already very accurate out of the box. There is only a minor blue cast, but it is not visible with the naked eye. The colors on the other hand clearly show that it is an inexpensive IPS screen with limited color gamut (~60% sRGB) and we can see huge deviations compared to the sRGB reference color space.

We calibrated the panel (X-Rite i1 Pro 2) and the corresponding profile can be downloaded in the box above. The grayscale improved a bit, but the colors still show high deviations.

The picture quality is completely sufficient for a business laptop, but you should get the optional 1080p screen with 100% sRGB if you want to edit pictures with accurate colors.

Responstijd Scherm

ℹ

De responstijden van het scherm tonen hoe snel het scherm in staat is om van één kleur naar de andere te veranderen. Trage responstijden kunnen aanleiding geven tot 'nabeelden' rond bewegende objecten of het scherm wazig maken (blur). Vooral spelers van snelle 3D-games hebben baat bij een scherm met snelle responstijden.

↔ Responstijd Zwart naar Wit
21.6 ms ... stijging ↗ en daling ↘ gecombineerd	↗ 12.4 ms stijging
21.6 ms ... stijging ↗ en daling ↘ gecombineerd	↘ 9.2 ms daling
Het scherm vertoonde prima responstijden in onze tests maar is misschien wat te traag voor competitieve games. Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.1 (minimum) tot 240 (maximum) ms. » 43 % van alle toestellen zijn beter. Dit betekent dat de gemeten responstijd vergelijkbaar is met het gemiddelde (20.9 ms) van alle geteste toestellen.

Het scherm vertoonde trage responstijden in onze tests en is misschien te traag voor games. Ter vergelijking: alle testtoestellen variëren van 0.165 (minimum) tot 636 (maximum) ms. » 45 % van alle toestellen zijn beter. Dit betekent dat de gemeten responstijd vergelijkbaar is met het gemiddelde (32.8 ms) van alle geteste toestellen.

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

Om de schermhelderheid te verlagen schakelen sommige laptops het backlight erg snel aan en uit. Dit gebeurt aan een dergelijk hoge frequentie dat het niet zichtbaar is voor het menselijk oog. Als de frequentie te laag is kunnen personen met gevoelige ogen geïrriteerd geraken, hoofdpijn krijgen en zelfs flickering waarnemen.

Screen flickering / PWM niet waargenomen

Ter vergelijking: 53 % van alle geteste toestellen maakten geen gebruik van PWM om de schermhelderheid te verlagen. Als het wel werd gebruikt, werd een gemiddelde van 8715 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz waargenomen.

The additional brightness is definitely appreciated outdoors and you have a little bit more headroom, but you should still get a place in the shade for the most comfortable viewing experience.

Performance - ThinkPad with Ryzen 5000

Processor - Ryzen 5 5500U with 6 cores

Our review unit is equipped with the Ryzen 5 5500U with 6 cores (12 threads) and a maximum clock of 4 GHZ. More technical information about the CPU is available here.

Contrary to ThinkPad models with Intel CPUs, the power limit is steady at 30W and this level can be maintained quite well under sustained workloads. The average clock during the Cinebench R15 Multi loop is ~3.4 GHz and there is no performance drop after a couple of seconds.

Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen2-20T7S00W00 AMD Ryzen 5 4500U: Ø845 (836.07-873.42)

The new ThinkPad E14 beats the rivals in multi-core benchmarks. Tiger Lake based laptops are much slower and even the 45W processor Core i7-10850H in the Dell Latitude 14 is slower than the AMD chip. If you only stress one core, however, the Intel chips have an advantage. We should mention that Intel CPUs often benefit from high power limits for short peak load, which is not the case for the AMD chip in the E14. The performance is not reduced on battery power.

Storage Devices

Both SSDs (M.2-2242 & M.2-2280) can be replaced.

The ThinkPad E14 G3 has two SSD slots. Our review unit was equipped with a compact M.2-2242 module from SK Hynix (BC711) and a storage capacity of 512 GB (435 GB free after initial set-up). Both drives are attached via PCIe-3.0 x4 and the transfer rates are good. Thanks to the empty M.2-2280 slot, it is very easy to upgrade the storage capacity if necessary. More SSD benchmarks can be found here.

GPU Performance - RX Vega 7 with small improvements

The Ryzen 5 5500U is equipped with the integrated Radeon RX Vega 7, which is basically the old Vega 7 we already know from Ryzen 4000 chips. More technical information about the iGPU is available here. This is also the case for the performance, which benefits from the dual-channel memory configuration, but it is on the expected level in general. Intel's integrated Xe Graphics G7, which is also available in the Intel model of the ThinkPad E14 G2, for example, is a bit faster in the synthetic benchmarks.

There is still a change, because AMD has improved the efficiency of the integrated video decoder. Old Vega 7 iGPUs were at about 60% GPU load during 4K video playback, but the new version is below 10%. This also improves the battery runtime during video playback. Intel's Xe Graphics G7 (~30% GPU load) is also beaten.

The graphics performance is also stable during longer workloads. More GPU benchmarks are available in our Tech section.

Emissions - E14 G3 with AMD-CPU stays quiet

System Noise

The new E14 G3 still uses a single fan and it is a very quiet device overall. Compared to many Intel based laptops, there is no high power limit, so the fan usually does not start spinning in short peak load scenarios. The noise level is still convenient when you stress the CPU and the iGPU simultaneously and there are no annoying frequencies. We did not notice any other electronic sounds like coil whine on our test unit, either.

Temperature

The ThinkPad E14 G3 is not uncomfortable warm, despite the quiet fan. We can determine almost 50 °C at the bottom during the stress test and you should not put the device on your lap in this scenario, but there are no limitations in everyday situations. The fan speed is a bit lower when you play games like Witcher 3, so the chassis is even a bit warmer.

We can once again see that the consumption levels off at 30 Watts during the stress test. There are some fluctuations after about 10 minutes but the performance is very stable in general and there is no major drop. The processor runs at 6x 2.6-2.8 GHz and the iGPU at ~450 MHz. There is no performance reduction immediately after the stress test.

Speakers

The two stereo speakers once again carry the same Harman branding and we cannot notice a difference from the previous model. The result is surprisingly good for an inexpensive office device and you can easily enjoy some videos or some background music. Conferences benefit from the good representation of high tones, which is great for clear voices.

Energy Management

Power Consumption - AMD-ThinkPad with long battery runtime

Our consumption measurements show slight improvements, because the idle values are comparable or even slightly better compared to the ThinkPad E14 G2 (both Intel as well as AMD), despite the brighter display. AMD system behave differently under load since there are no increased power limits for short periods, so the consumption is stable. We determine up to 55W during the stress test, so the compact 65W power adapter (USB-C) is completely sufficient.

Lenovo increased the battery capacity to 57 Wh and this obviously has a positive effect on the battery runtime. Almost all the rivals including the two models of the ThinkPad E14 G2 (both AMD as well as Intel) are clearly beaten. Our Wi-Fi test at an adjusted brightness of 150 nits results in almost 11.5 hours and still more than 8 hours at the maximum brightness. It seems that AMD laptops with shorter battery runtime are a thing of the past. The video test benefits from the more efficient video decoder with a runtime of almost 14 hours.

In review: Lenovo ThinkPad E14 G3. Test model courtesy of Campuspoint.

The third generation of the ThinkPad E14 is once again a good office laptop with a great price-performance ratio. You do not get the most high-end specs or best materials, but the notebook does not disappoint in the important sections and it is once again equipped with an excellent keyboard, which is not the case anymore for many more expensive ThinkPads. The keyboard is also a big advantage compared to the rivals.

The CPU upgrade to the AMD Ryzen 5000 chip improves the performance as well as the efficiency, and you get much longer battery runtimes in combination with the larger battery. Lenovo still uses 16:9 aspect ratio screens, but the IPS versions are now brighter and you can get a panel with 100% sRGB if you want to edit pictures. The increased brightness is also an advantage over other entry-level business laptops from Dell or HP, for example.

The ThinkPad E14 G3 is a great choice if you want an affordable office laptop with a decent IPS screen, long battery runtime and an excellent keyboard.

You can notice the low price at some points, starting with the limited one-year warranty as well as the outdated port selection, because no new device in 2021 should be equipped with USB 2.0. The competition is a bit lighter and more compact, but the ThinkPad E14 G3 still gets our recommendation.
