Introduction

Experience Enterprise-Grade Performance
Powered by Intel® Core™ Ultra processors, the 13.3" ThinkPad L13 Gen 5 laptop taps into AI-assisted productivity. Optimized performance with dedicated AI engines enables you to do more without draining the battery. Choose Intel vPro® for multilayer security, professional-grade performance, reliable stability, and complete management for IT.

Lightweight, Yet Withstands Tough Conditions
Super light and compact, the ThinkPad L13 Gen 5 laptop is the ideal companion that's ready to roll wherever you're headed — client meetings, overseas travel, or just the quiet corner of the cafe. It also meets the military-grade resilience and durability criteria of the US Dept. of Defense’s MIL-STD-810H, along with over 200 quality checks.

An Arsenal of Security Features
Biometrics safeguard the ThinkPad L13 Gen 5 laptop, from the fingerprint reader to facial recognition software. ThinkShield, our comprehensive suite of security solutions, boasts discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) to safeguard critical data with encryption. Plus, AI-based Intel® Hardware Shield helps prevent and defend against attacks.

Enhanced Connectivity Capabilities
With Intel® Connectivity Performance Suite, the ThinkPad L13 Gen 5 laptop dynamically hitches to the best WiFi access available, preventing network disruptions. Additionally, it offers optional 4G to ensure you’re connected wherever there’s mobile coverage. Savor lightning-fast downloads and smoother streaming with a world-class PC solution.

Make a Stellar Impression on Video Calls
Lenovo View, with AI-tuned enhancements, makes your video calls professional and cool. It uses auto-framing to keep you in focus and auto-adjustment to project you in the best light. Along with Dolby Voice®, the L13 Gen 5 laptop suppresses unwanted and distracting noise, so your calls sound clear — not just crystal clear, but concert-hall clear.

Pushing Boundaries for a Brighter Future
Prepared for a better tomorrow with convenient customer replaceable units (CRUs), this laptop also uses post-consumer recycled content (PCC) in several components. While the battery enclosure and AC adapter use up to 90%, the keycaps contain 70-85% PCC. Plus, certifications like ENERGY STAR® 8.0 and TCO 9.0 reduce energy costs in the short term.
