16-Inch Touchscreen Business Laptop With Intel Core Ultra 7 255U, 32GB Upgradeable DDR5, and Eyesafe IPS Display
The Lenovo ThinkPad T16 Gen 4 (21QE005NUS) is a 16-inch touchscreen business laptop powered by the Intel Core Ultra 7 255U processor with 12 cores, 14 threads, and a 5.20 GHz turbo clock. This configuration pairs the Core Ultra 7's higher single-thread performance with 32GB of DDR5-5600 memory, delivering the headroom needed for heavy multitasking with large datasets, multiple browser tabs, and virtual machines running simultaneously.
The 32GB ships as a single SoDIMM with one slot free for expansion to 64GB, preserving a straightforward upgrade path without replacing existing memory. The 512GB M.2 SSD handles OS and application storage, and the 16-inch WUXGA (1920x1200) IPS touchscreen panel features Eyesafe low blue light certification and 400 nits of brightness for comfortable interaction with diagrams, presentations, and annotation workflows across variable lighting conditions.
Connectivity includes Gigabit Ethernet over the built-in RJ-45 port, WiFi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth, two Thunderbolt 4 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A ports, and HDMI video output. The 5MP IR camera with privacy shutter supports Windows Hello facial recognition, and the fingerprint reader provides a second biometric login option. At 4.37 lb in a polycarbonate and carbon fiber chassis, the T16 Gen 4 combines the productivity advantages of a large 16-inch touchscreen with 32GB of memory for users who need both screen real estate and multitasking capacity out of the box.
