| Fact | Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 2 | Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 |
|---|---|---|
| Linux support | Linux runs on this laptop, with something not working. “The AMD version of the laptop, from what I can gather from previous Lenovo responses and their page, is not technically certified to work with Linux in general, and the Intel version has only been tested with Ubuntu.”discussion.fedoraproject.org, checked 17 September 2026. | Linux runs on this laptop, with something not working. “Some features may not be supported on the system with Linux preload, including but not limited to Intel® RST RAID, MIPI computer vision camera, WWAN, Human Presence Detection, etc.”psref.lenovo.com, checked 27 October 2026. |
| Soldered RAM | The RAM can be upgraded. “The inside of the bottom panel houses a socket for the SODIMMs and a thermal pad for the preinstalled SSD.”laptopmedia.com, checked 17 September 2026. | The RAM can be upgraded. “The ThinkPad E16 has two SODIMM slots, so you can fix this by adding a second 16GB stick (approximately $350-400 as memory prices have gone through the roof) to enable dual-channel mode.”laptopsexplained.com, checked 27 October 2026. |
| Screen quality | Reviewers rate this screen well. “The 1200p IPS display (MNG007QS1-3 (LEN41B5)) is PWM-free, its viewing angles are wide, and the 353 nit max brightness is enough for normal work.”laptopmedia.com, checked 17 September 2026. | Reviewers rate this screen poorly. “The 16-inch display with 1920 x 1200 resolution suffers from the same terrible colour coverage we criticized in the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 G8: just 45% NTSC (~62% sRGB).”laptopsexplained.com, checked 27 October 2026. |
