Now, regular readers will know that Lenovo is a little generous with its original prices. Oftentimes, the estimated value is overly optimistic so the true discount may be less. However, whatever the original price, we do know that $989 for this specification of laptop is a good deal. If you’re looking for a new workhorse of a laptop, read on while we take you through it.

Why you should buy the Lenovo ThinkPad E16

Lenovo is one of the best laptop brands, especially when it comes to designing sturdy business-focused laptops. The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 is a good example of that. It has an Intel Core Ultra 7 155U processor teamed up with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. For work purposes, I’d prefer to see 1TB at this price, but there’s always cloud storage if you deal with a lot of large files.

More of a highlight to the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 is its screen. It has a 16-inch WUXGA display with a 1920 x 1200 resolution. It offers anti-glare properties, 45% NTSC, and 300 nits of brightness, so it’s a good all-rounder. Its big highlight is its size, as it means plenty more screen space while on the move, which is great if you’re often commuting or traveling rather than using the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 at home where you can connect it to a monitor.

Above the screen is a 1080p full HD webcam with dual microphones and a privacy shutter. The keyboard is backlit and offers a number pad, and there’s a fingerprint reader too for added security. Each component is the kind of thing you’ll see from the best laptops. The laptop also has audio by Harman, and there’s Dolby Atmos support so it sounds good when relaxing with a movie or some music. The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 is also sturdy thanks to meeting the US Department of Defense’s military standards.

Normally $1,649, the Lenovo ThinkPad E16 is down to $989 for a limited time only as one of Lenovo’s last minute Cyber Week laptop deals. It’s perfect for business plans or a student who wants something reliable. Take a look for yourself by tapping the button below.

Every app on my phone has decided I need AI, and none of them bothered to ask
AI assistants are invading everything from photo libraries to messaging apps, and dismissing them only seems to guarantee they’ll return later.
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

My wife doesn’t use AI very much. She isn’t philosophically opposed to it, nor is she waiting for the machines to overthrow civilization. She simply opens Google Photos because she wants to look at her photos.

Lately, however, the app keeps greeting her with invitations to try its AI tools. Google would very much like her to search her library conversationally, generate something new, or ask Gemini to edit a photo. She dismisses the prompt, gets on with her life, and eventually meets it again.

Shopping for Back-to-school? These are the gaming laptops I’d recommend
Powerful enough for AAA games, practical enough for everyday lectures, assignments, and everything in between.

Every gamer knows the pain of trying to do too much with the wrong hardware. Back-to-School is the perfect excuse to fix that. A good gaming laptop shouldn’t just hit high frame rates -- it should also survive endless browser tabs, assignments, coding sessions, video edits, and everything else college throws at it. These five machines strike that balance better than most, which is exactly why they’d be my picks this semester.

If you look at the AI landscape, a majority of its usage in the film and television industry has been pretty controversial. Bringing dead actors to life on a screen, using AI to record vintage songs that were never completed, or just using it to film scenes or handle any other part of the creative process — the backlash has been pretty vocal. But there are a few slivers of hopeful AI usage, too, and Google just delivered one of those in a heartwarming fashion using Gemini AI.
