The ThinkBook 16p G6 is a 16-inch laptop featuring an aluminium chassis in "Luna Grey," designed for users who frequently engage in editing, 3D modelling, or rendering. It combines a 16-core Ryzen 9 8940HX processor with an RTX 5060 GPU (based on the Blackwell architecture) and a factory-calibrated WQXGA display suitable for colour-critical work—all housed within a professional-grade chassis that meets the MIL-STD-810H military standard. It follows a classic clamshell design, featuring a 16:10 aspect ratio and an integrated numeric keypad. It comes with Windows 11 Pro pre-installed and activated.
A Blackwell-based GPU with 8GB of GDDR7 memory for demanding rendering and editing tasks
The RTX 5060 is equipped with 8GB of GDDR7 memory, allowing users to work with medium-sized 3D scenes, high-resolution textures, and video timelines without running out of GPU memory mid-project. The Blackwell architecture is NVIDIA’s latest generation for laptops, featuring integrated tensor acceleration and ray tracing. The TGP (Total Graphics Power) for this model is set at 115W—well within the 175W maximum supported by the RTX 5060 in laptop configurations. This is a deliberate design choice: in a 19mm-thick chassis, the priority is balancing performance with thermal management, rather than pushing the architecture to its absolute limit. While variants with a higher TGP for the RTX 5060 do exist, 115W is more than sufficient for typical creative workflows, effectively accelerating renders and exports without the GPU becoming a bottleneck. Important considerations before purchasing: the device weighs 2.15 kg and requires... ...a rather large 300W charger. This is a machine intended for use between fixed locations—such as an office and a studio—rather than something you’d toss into your backpack every morning.
It features a 240Hz display calibrated for professional color work and daily tasks
The 16-inch screen has a 2560x1600 (WQXGA) resolution with a 16:10 aspect ratio, providing more vertical space than a 16:9 panel of the same diagonal size. When editing video or writing code with side-by-side panels, that extra room is noticeable from day one. The panel reaches 500 nits of brightness and a 240Hz refresh rate, ensuring that scrolling through interfaces and previewing animations feels fluid. For those using applications that benefit from a high refresh rate, the display responds immediately, with no extra configuration required. What sets this model apart for color-critical work is its factory X-Rite calibration, which offers 100% DCI-P3 coverage. X-Rite calibration involves an individual measurement process that fine-tunes the panel to specific color tolerances—it’s not just a generic factory setting. The result is that the colors you see on your screen match what others will see when they view your files—a crucial detail for photography, design, and print work. The anti-reflective coating helps reduce eye strain during long sessions under artificial lighting. A candid note: the panel is IPS, not OLED. The blacks aren't as deep, and the contrast isn't as high as you’d find on an OLED display. For color editing, this is less significant than the color accuracy provided by the DCI-P3 gamut; however, if your priority is a cinematic image with pure blacks, it’s worth keeping in mind.
A 16-core processor designed for sustained workloads, not just short bursts
The Ryzen 9 8940HX belongs to AMD’s HX family, engineered for mobile workstations handling demanding multi-threaded tasks—featuring 16 cores and 32 threads, with a turbo frequency of 5.3 GHz. GHz. When it comes to compiling, exporting video, or rendering tasks that take minutes to complete, having 16 cores available directly reduces wait times compared to 8-core processors. The memory configuration is optimized for performance right from the first boot: 32 GB of DDR5-5200 RAM, arranged in two SO-DIMM slots running in dual-channel mode—the configuration that maximizes bandwidth. Should your projects grow, you can upgrade to 64 GB simply by swapping out the modules, with no other changes required. The 1 TB NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD (M.2 format) ensures that large projects open quickly and editing caches don’t cause delays. 1 TB provides ample space for active projects; for archiving raw footage, an external drive is the standard solution. The trade-off for an HX-series processor under a heavy workload is power consumption: it delivers peak performance when plugged in, but when running on battery power, performance during demanding tasks will be lower, and battery life will be limited. This device performs best when used on a desk or with the charger nearby.
Spanish-layout keyboard with a numeric keypad; connectivity details
The keyboard is backlit, features a Spanish layout, and includes an integrated numeric keypad—a significant advantage for those who work with spreadsheets or frequently enter numerical data. In terms of connectivity, the two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports support Power Delivery and DisplayPort, allowing you to connect external monitors or a docking station directly. With an HDMI 2.1 port and the two USB-C ports capable of video output, you can manage multiple displays in addition to the built-in screen. There are also three USB-A ports, an SD card reader, and a combined headphone/microphone jack. Two points worth noting: there is no built-in Ethernet port, so those who require a wired network connection will need a USB-C to RJ-45 adapter. There is also no fingerprint reader; in corporate environments that rely on biometric authentication, an alternative solution will be necessary. The 720p HD camera includes a physical privacy shutter—a genuine mechanical safeguard for video calls in professional settings.
Refresh rate: 240 Hz. Battery life: 4 hours. Available ports: 1 x HDMI, 2 x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, 1 x USB-A 3.2 Gen 2, 2 x USB-C 3.2 Gen 2. Color: Gray. Number of cores: 16 cores.

Frequently asked questions
What are the resolution and refresh rate of the display?
16-inch IPS panel with WQXGA (2560×1600) resolution in a 16:10 aspect ratio, 240 Hz refresh rate, 500 nits of brightness, an anti-reflective finish, and 100% DCI-P3 color gamut coverage with factory X-Rite calibration. It also features DisplayHDR 400.
Is the RAM upgradeable, or is it soldered to the motherboard?
It is not soldered. It uses two SO-DIMM slots, currently occupied by two 16 GB DDR5 5200 MHz modules. You can upgrade to a total of 64 GB by replacing the modules whenever needed.
What video ports are available for connecting external monitors?
It includes two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 ports (with DisplayPort support) and one HDMI 2.1 port, allowing you to connect up to two external monitors—in addition to the built-in display—without the need for an extra docking station.
Does the device come with an operating system, or must it be purchased separately?
Windows 11 Pro (64-bit) comes pre-installed and pre-activated from the factory. There is no need to purchase an additional license or go through any activation process.
