The ThinkPad is prominent in the business world. Lenovo clings to that and continues to polish the series, rather than making substantial upgrades, to not alienate its long-time users.
Lenovo has used the same mold with the new Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6. It has many classic features of a ThinkPad, right from the design to the iconic TrackPoint that’s been a staple of the series for years.
But does this machine still have a place in the modern age? That’s what we’ll find out in our ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 review.

Design and Build Quality
The overall look and feel of this modern ThinkPad are reminiscent of the classic models from years ago. However, the particular chassis of the ThinkPad E14 G6 is fairly new and was first introduced from its predecessor.
It has a nice black aluminum outer lid that looks clean and would take the beating from your day-to-day commute to and from the office. With its MIL-STD-810H certification, it guarantees that it could survive extreme conditions regardless of where you work.
What I didn’t like about it is that its shiny base, palm rest, and trackpad attract smudges easily and wiping them takes some effort.
The bottom is raised high enough for cooling via the wide rubber feet that also keep it stable on any surface. We also have ventilation on top of the keyboard with good clearance.
Overall, I’m impressed with the durability, even with the sturdy hinge that lets you open the lid up to 180 degrees. Everything about its design just works, from the display size, the keyboard layout, and the ample size of the trackpad. I would have preferred a bigger trackpad like the one in the MacBooks, but this size is good enough, too.
The ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 is also fairly portable thanks to its small size, but it’s far from being the thinnest or the lightest laptop in the market today.
Taking a tour, we have the 14-inch IPS screen on the front, with a notch for the 720p webcam, a physical privacy shutter, and dual microphones. Bezels are not the thinnest, but acceptable.
Behind the screen is the lid that has the ThinkPad logo on the top left. The red dot on the letter “i” lights up when the device is powered on. We then have the Lenovo badge at the bottom right side.
There’s plenty of ports on the left side. The USB-C port comes with an LED light indicator and supports up to 20Gbps of transfer speeds, Power Delivery 3.0 for charging, and DisplayPort 1.4.
Next to it is a more powerful USB-C Thunderbolt 4 with 40Gbps speeds and the same PD and DP 2.1. We also have a USB-A port with 10Gbps speeds, HDMI 2.1 (up to 4K@60Hz), and a 3.5mm headphone/mic combo jack.
The Kensington Security Lock is located on the other side, next to the RJ45 Ethernet port, and a slower USB-A with 5Gbps support.
A power button is on the right side of the keyboard, with an LED light on top of it. Unfortunately, the variant we reviewed didn’t have a fingerprint scanner. There’s another ThinkPad badge on the bottom right corner.
Trackpad, TrackPoint, Keyboard, Webcam
The keyboard and trackpad situation on the Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 feels foreign if you’re new to the series. There’s a steep learning curve you need to get into, from how to utilize the TrackPoint to the odd placement of the CTRL button. But as stated earlier, Lenovo didn’t want to alienate its long-time users, and that’s commendable.
Personally, I was really annoyed by the CTRL button’s placement (switched with the Fn button), and you might be too if you’re new to the series.
The keyboard is really nice to type on. They are tactile, provide a clicky sound, have a nice rough texture for good grip, and have the usual cap sizes. To be honest, I find the TrackPoint useless for most of my use cases, but it’s there for those who have grown to using it.
The trackpad is nice, albeit it could be a bit larger. There are still buttons on top of it, which I surprisingly adapted to quite easily.
Meanwhile, the 720p webcam has terrible image quality, but it should be enough for online meetings and presentations. It has a physical privacy shutter and two microphones on each side to pick up your voice with good clarity.
Display and Audio
The Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 has a compact 14-inch WUXGA IPS display, with a 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution, ~161ppi, 300-nit peak brightness, 45% NTSC, and has an anti-glare coating.
Display quality is nothing to write home about. It’s great for multitasking and productivity, but the colors are lackluster for heavy photo/video editing. You can still enjoy films and TV series, but don’t expect eye-watering image quality.
I really appreciated the matte coating and good viewing angles. I was able to comfortably work outdoors without worrying about reflections ruining my experience.
For audio, the bottom-firing stereo speakers are surprisingly good. Not great, but good enough. Treble and bass are nice and clear, and the volume is ample for solo listening.
Hardware and Performance
The Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 is powered by an AMD Ryzen 5 7535U processor, with 6 cores, 12 threads, 4.55GHz clock speed, and 16MB L3 cache. It has AMD Radeon 660M graphics, 16GB SODIMM DDR5-4800 RAM, and 512GB of storage.
Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 Benchmark Scores
Performance has been satisfactory, especially if you’re just dealing with emails, Word documents, and spreadsheets. During our time with it, we spent hours working with multiple Chrome tabs open while writing articles, researching, and editing photos on Canva. It can also comfortably run Adobe Photoshop and edit videos using Davinci Resolve. Plus, it stays relatively quiet without major overheating issues.
We also tried playing GTA Online just to test it out and got acceptable frame rates under low to medium graphics settings at 1080p. It’s really not meant for gaming, but it’s good to know that it can run decently in case you want to play old and casual games.
Battery and Charging
The Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 Review has a 3-cell 56WHr Li-Po battery with 65W USB-C charging.
In our test, it was able to last for 7.5 hours of intermittent use. We primarily did work with it, handling multiple browser windows and tabs open. That’s a fairly decent longevity for a non-ARM laptop.
Charging speeds was decent, too, but nothing to brag about. A full charge took about 1 hour and 40 minutes in our tests.
Verdict
The Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 6 is a solid option for those who want a reliable machine for work, especially if you’re a long-time ThinkPad user who can’t live without the TrackPoint and has grown a liking to its specific design, keyboard layout, and trackpad.
But if you don’t really need to own a ThinkPad, there are other options out there. Options that will let you work better with their bigger screens, sleeker designs, and the incredible efficiency and battery life provided by ARM chips. Of course, that’s if your work software is compatible with them. Otherwise, sticking with x86 is the safer choice for now.

Ya llevo unos cuantos meses en 888starz y para que mentir tenia dudas al principio, porque por aqui uno se cansa de sitios que se caen cada dos por tres. Darse de alta fue cosa de dos minutos, correo y contrasena y ya esta, y el minimo para depositar esta en 1-2 euros, asi puedes tantear sin jugarte el sueldo.
De tragaperras van sobrados — hablamos de unos 10.000 titulos de proveedores como Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Betsoft y Yggdrasil. Yo me quedo en Gates of Olympus y Sweet Bonanza, si bien de vez en cuando pruebo los Megaways. Lo que me raya es que encontrar un juego concreto es un lio cuando tienes 8.000 cosas delante.
La parte de crupier real es de Evolution, basicamente y se nota la diferencia: blackjack con gente real, Crazy Time si te va el rollo espectaculo. El paquete de bienvenida ronda el 100% hasta 300€ con 100 tiradas gratis, el wagering esta en x40, que es lo normal del mercado. Suele haber bonos sin deposito de vez en cuando, conviene revisar los terminos actualizados desde [url=https://888starz-es5.com/sign-up-bonus]888starz registration bonus[/url] porque cambian cada mes.
El tema de sacar pasta me ha ido mejor de lo que pensaba. Cobre hace poco con Skrill y me llego en menos de una hora. Con Visa tarda mas, eso ya es cosa del banco. Aceptan tambien Neteller, Bitcoin y ahi es donde vuela de verdad.
El movil cumple, la app de Android existe aunque la web movil me va igual de bien. El chat de ayuda responde en espanol, tardaron unos 10 minutos con una duda de documentacion. La licencia es de Curazao, que no es la DGOJ y eso cada uno que lo valore. Por ahora no me ha fallado, pero ojo con el rollover de las promos.
Vengo jugando un par de meses con 888starz y para qué mentir no esperaba gran cosa, porque por aquí uno se cansa de casinos que prometen mucho. Darse de alta me llevó tres minutos, los datos básicos y fuera, y el mínimo para depositar es de 1 euro, así puedes tantear sin jugarte el sueldo.
De slots van sobrados — creo que pasan de más de 7.000 juegos entre Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Betsoft y Yggdrasil. Yo tiro mucho de Gates of Olympus y Sweet Bonanza, eso sí también le he dado a alguna de Microgaming. Lo que sí encontrar un juego concreto es un lío cuando tienes 8.000 cosas delante.
La parte de crupier real está llevada por Evolution y se nota la diferencia: blackjack con gente real, Crazy Time y Monopoly Live que enganchan una barbaridad. El bono de bienvenida va sobre el 100% con 150 tiradas, hay que apostarlo x40, nada raro comparado con otros. Va rotando algún free spin sin depósito, conviene revisar los términos actualizados desde [url=https://888starz-es1.com/promotions]888starz promo[/url] porque cambian cada mes.
Las retiradas es lo que más me ha sorprendido. Saqué la semana pasada con Skrill y entró casi al momento. Por Visa o Mastercard hay que esperar unos días, nada nuevo. Aceptan también Neteller, cripto si no te asusta el tema.
En el teléfono funciona bien, la app de Android existe si bien la versión web hace el mismo apaño. La atención al cliente está en español, me atendieron rápido la vez que tuve un lío con la verificación. La licencia es de Curazao, que no es la DGOJ y hay que saberlo antes de entrar. Por ahora no me ha fallado, pero ojo con el rollover de las promos.
Vengo jugando casi medio ano con 888starz y sinceramente no esperaba gran cosa, ya que en Espana acabas quemado de paginas que venden humo. Darse de alta fue cosa de un rato minimo, correo y contrasena y ya esta, y el deposito minimo ronda los 1 euro, que para probar viene de lujo.
En cuanto a maquinas tienen un catalogo enorme — hablamos de unos 10.000 titulos de proveedores como Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Play’n GO, Betsoft y Yggdrasil. Yo tiro mucho de Gates of Olympus y Sweet Bonanza, aunque he tocado tambien cosas de Big Time Gaming. Lo que me raya es que el filtro por proveedor a veces se atasca cuando el catalogo es tan bestia.
El casino en directo esta llevada por Evolution y ahi no hay queja: ruletas con crupieres de verdad, los game shows tipo Crazy Time si te va el rollo espectaculo. El bono de bienvenida va sobre el 100% mas 150 tiradas, hay que apostarlo x35, que es lo normal del mercado. Suele haber algun free spin sin deposito, puedes mirar los terminos actualizados en [url=https://888starz-es5.com/app-ios]888starz ios app[/url] antes de meter dinero.
Los cobros va bastante fino. Retire hace poco via e-wallet y lo tuve en 40 minutos. Con Visa se va a dos o tres dias, nada nuevo. Van con Neteller, Bitcoin y USDT que es lo mas rapido con diferencia.
Desde el movil cumple, hay APK para Android pero yo uso el navegador y me sobra. La atencion al cliente te contesta en castellano, tardaron unos 10 minutos la vez que tuve un lio con la verificacion. Operan con licencia de Curazao, que no es la DGOJ y conviene tenerlo claro. Por ahora no me ha fallado, pero ojo con el rollover de las promos.
Right — have been messing about with this thing for about four months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, mostly bet football and racing, nothing mad, just so you know where I’m coming from.
How I found it was honestly pretty stupid — I couldn’t ever figure out what an ew return actually came to when the place terms changed. I used to just guess and moan when the payout landed. Now I type the odds in first, every time, even a straight one-selection punt.
Their single bet calculator is the bit I open most — type in your stake, the odds and it spits out the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. It also handles the multiples — acca and treble returns, a lucky 15, a yankee, honestly that’s where I always lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/accumulator]how to work out accumulator odds[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely made a difference were the more serious extras. There’s an odds-to-probability calculator that shows the overround, and there’s the kelly calculator — I use half kelly since full stakes are terrifying. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. Its design is pretty plain — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it’s usable although the acca grid need a bit of scrolling. And no proper app, just the site — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Free, not plastered in adverts, does what it says. Anyone who still does the maths on paper, have a look — saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
So — been using this thing for about a few months now and I keep coming back, reckon I’d chuck my thoughts in since a mate asked me last week. I’m based in the UK, generally do football and horses, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely a bit daft — I never could get my head round what an ew return would be with 1/5 odds a place. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. These days I punch the numbers in before every slip, even a straight one-selection punt.
The single bet calculator is the bit I open most — type in your stake, the odds and it shows the return instantly, fractions or decimals. It also handles the bigger stuff — acca and treble maths, lucky 15 and lucky 63, yankees, and that’s where I’d always lose track. If you want a look, it’s here [url=https://singlebettingcalculator.uk/bet-calculator/yankee]super yankee calculator[/url] — free, no signup.
The thing that genuinely changed how I bet is the more serious tools. There’s an implied probability thing which shows you what margin’s baked in, and a kelly tool — I stick to fractional kelly as the full version is terrifying. The dutch tool is handy too when I’m splitting a race.
Not all sunshine though. Its interface feels a bit basic — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. On my phone it’s fine but the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. And nothing on the app store, it’s browser only — doesn’t bother me but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does the job. If anyone still does the maths on paper, try it — it’s saved me a fair few dumb bets I’d have regretted.
OK — been using this thing for something like six months now and it’s stuck on my phone, so figured I’d write something up since a lad on another thread asked me the other day. I’m in the UK, mainly stick to footie and the horses, a fiver here and there, so take it how you like.
What got me on it was honestly pretty stupid — I never could work out what an each way return actually came to when the place terms changed. I’d just eyeball it and moan when the payout landed. Now punch the numbers in before every slip, even a simple single bet.
Their single bet calculator tool is the bit I use most — type in your stake, the odds and it spits out returns with no faffing, fractions or decimals. It also handles the fiddly ones — trebles maths, a lucky 15, yankees, and that’s where I’d always got it wrong. If you want a look, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/accumulator]how to work out accumulator odds[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
The thing that really changed how I bet was the geekier extras. The implied probability calculator which shows you the overround, and there’s the kelly criterion calculator — I use half kelly because full kelly is terrifying. The dutch tool is decent when I’m covering two or three runners.
Couple of gripes. Its layout is a bit basic — not much flash, looks like it was built by someone who cares more about maths than colours. On my phone it’s usable although the lucky 63 breakdown need a bit of scrolling. And no app, it’s browser only — fine by me just flagging it.
Right, that’s me. Doesn’t cost anything, barely any ads, does the job. Anyone who still adds it up in their head, have a look — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
Right — been on this thing for something like six months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, small stakes, for context.
The reason I started using it was genuinely embarrassing — I could never work out what an e/w return actually was when the place terms changed. I used to just eyeball it and then be surprised. Now punch the numbers in before I place anything, even the boring singles.
The single bet calculator is the part I use most — you drop in the price and your stake and you get the return instantly, fractional or decimal, doesn’t matter. Same tool covers the multiples — doubles and trebles maths, a lucky 15, patents and yankees, honestly that’s where I always lose track. Have a go yourself, it’s over at [url=https://freebet-calculator.com/bet-calculator/trixie]trixie calculator free[/url] and there’s no login wall, which I appreciated.
One thing that really changed how I bet is the more serious tools. There’s an odds-to-probability converter which shows you what margin’s baked in, plus a kelly calculator — I stick to fractional kelly since full stakes are far too aggressive. The dutching one is handy too when I’m spreading across selections.
Not all sunshine though. The interface is pretty plain — no polish, it’s clearly function over form. On mobile it’s usable although the acca grid are a squeeze. And no app, just the site — slight shame but worth saying.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If you even now works out returns on a calculator app, try it — saves me plenty of arguments with the bookie.
So — been using this thing for maybe a few months now and I keep coming back, so thought I’d say something since a lad on another thread asked me last week. Am in the UK, generally stick to footie and the horses, small stakes, just so you know where I’m coming from.

Their single bet calculator is the part I open most — you drop in your stake, the odds and you get the return with no faffing, either odds format. There’s also the fiddly ones — doubles and trebles returns, lucky 15s, a yankee, which is where most people I know lose track. If you fancy a poke about, it’s over at [url=https://free-bet-calc.uk/bet-calculator/implied-probability]implied probability[/url] and it’s free with no account nonsense.
What actually made a difference was the nerdier bits. They’ve got an probability calculator that shows how much the bookie’s taking, and there’s the kelly criterion tool — I run quarter kelly as the full version is a quick route to a dead bankroll. The dutching one gets used a fair bit when I’m covering two or three runners.
It’s not perfect mind. The design feels pretty plain — no frills, it’s clearly function over form. Phone-wise it works but the acca grid make you pinch and zoom. And nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — doesn’t bother me but you asked.
So yeah. Costs nowt, barely any ads, does the job. If anyone honestly adds it up in their head, give it a go — it’s saved me a fair few “wait, that’s it?” moments.
So — have been messing about with this thing for maybe five months now and it’s basically bookmarked at this point, so figured I’d write something up since someone asked me last week. I’m in the UK, mainly bet football and racing, nothing mad, so take it how you like.

What really shifted things for me was the geekier tools. There’s an implied probability thing and it makes obvious the overround, plus a kelly tool — I run quarter kelly because full kelly is terrifying. Dutching calculator is decent if I’m splitting a race.
It’s not perfect mind. Its layout is very functional, let’s say — no polish, which honestly I don’t mind but some will. Phone-wise it works though the bigger tables make you pinch and zoom. There’s nothing on the app store, it’s a website and that’s it — slight shame but you asked.
Right, that’s me. Costs nowt, no ads shoved in your face, does what it says. Anyone who even now works out returns on a calculator app, give it a go — it’s saved me a load of dumb bets I’d have regretted.
يعني أنا بقالي كام شهر بجرب على الموقع ده وقلت أكتب تجربتي بما إن الموضوع بيتكرر هنا. أكتر حاجة عجبتني إن كتالوج السلوتس كبير بشكل مش طبيعي — فوق 7000 لعبة بالتقريب، والمزودين محترمين. Pragmatic Play ليها نصيب الأسد ووطبعًا Play’n GO وNetEnt.
أنا بحب Sweet Bonanza، وزميلي مش بيقوم من على Book of Dead. الجديد اللي جربته كان سلوتس Betsoft وكانت حلوة. لكن الحاجة الوحيدة المزعجة إن فلترة الألعاب بيهنج أحيانًا لما تكون الألعاب كتير.
