The laptop is environmentally friendly with a shell made of plants
Many laptop or phone manufacturers today are aiming to protect the environment in many different ways, but with the Lenovo Thinkpad Z13 G2 , I see this demonstrated most clearly.
From the box cover, straps, and outer carton boxes, Lenovo uses recycled materials to help optimize production costs and at the same time these materials are also very environmentally friendly, a plus point for Lenovo.
Experience the holding feeling that I highly appreciate on the Lenovo Thinkpad Z13 G2, the flex phenomenon is almost non-existent. The chassis is compact, the A side is made of a new material, plant fiber, instead of metal or leather like on the previous version, which is both unique and adds aesthetics to the product. This material is very hand-friendly and less susceptible to fingerprints.
The surrounding edge is plated with extremely delicate CNC-cut copper, and the front will protrude slightly to help you easily open the lid. This part is also printed with the Z13 logo and is also where the webcam, microphone and attached sensors are located.

The dual hinges on the machine are hidden hinges, very sturdy when used. The hinges fold and open up to a maximum of 135 degrees with just one hand. The bottom has a rubber strip that lifts the body of the machine to increase heat circulation. The D side has air intake vents, two fairly large fans can also be clearly seen here.
Regarding connection ports, we will only have two USB type C ports with thunderbolt 4 protocol , 3.5mm jack .
IPS screen but the display is no worse than OLED
Inside, we will have a 13.3-inch multi-touch screen , 16:10 aspect ratio , FHD+ (1920 x 1200) IPS resolution . Lenovo uses screens from BOE , a third-party company that produces extremely high-quality screens, so the colors on this screen are also super high, bright colors, good details.
The parameters measured through specialized Spyder equipment are also very impressive.
Note: The device does not come with a stylus, you will have to buy more if needed, but in return, the touch on the device is extremely smooth, touch operations do not lag at all, and the brightness is high so you can use it. Use the Lenovo Thinkpad Z13 G2 to create the content you want, anywhere.
In addition, the Lenovo Thinkpad Z13 G2 meets TÜV Low Blue Light standards , technology that helps protect eyes, pre-calibrated colors and also has many higher resolution screen options such as 2.8K and OLED panels.
Edge-to-edge keyboard and new technology Touchpad
Side C is the projection and borderless keyboard layout. The keyboard typing experience on the Thinkpad is nothing to criticize or complain about. Of course, a ThinkPad laptop cannot lack the legendary red TrackPoint button and navigation cluster right on the touchpad.
The touchpad is designed in a flat form, the two left and right buttons are force-sensitive, the touchpad area is also larger, combined with Sensel technology to increase tracking capabilities and the tactile feedback feels more real. You can customize this feature on or off right in the Windows settings.
Powerful performance, high security with AMD Ryzen Pro 7000 series CPU
The Lenovo Thinkpad Z13 G2 version I am reviewing is integrated with an AMD Ryzen Pro CPU , a processor designed specifically for businesses, for higher performance, and advanced security features.
Specifically, AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 7840U, possessing 8 cores, 16 processing threads , ZEN 4 architecture , achieved a multi-core score when running Cinebench R23 of 12809 .
In addition, the performance scores shown through other tests such as V-RAY , Geekbech 6, and 3D Mark are also very impressive.
At this score, the Ryzen 7 7840U is only slightly weaker than the Ryzen 5 7600X (6 cores, 12 threads, TDP 105 W) on Desktop or Ryzen 7 5800X (8 cores, 16 threads, TDP 105 W) in the ZEN generation 3 . This proves that the ZEN 4 architecture provides very good performance while consuming low power.

After 5 minutes the CPU has a throttling phenomenon.
Integrated inside the Ryzen 7 7840U is the Radeon 780M iGPU , based on the RDNA 3 architecture , providing much better graphics processing performance than the old RDNA 2 generation .
Specifically, the iGPU max clock speed is up to 2.5Ghz, TDP 35W when benchmarked through Furmark.
After 10 minutes iGPU stabilized at 1.6 Ghz, TDP 18W
The Night Raid test produces a score of up to 25,738.
I tried editing photos, playing some popular games, and lightly editing videos on this laptop and it was also very smooth.
