Style meets form and function
Thanks to its slim build, choice of aluminum top cover, and an impressive screen-to-body ratio, the stylish ThinkPad E15 Gen 4 looks the part in any business scenario. Lightweight and thin, this laptop can accompany you anywhere. It has an array of ports including USB-C for data, power, video, and audio transfers.
Secure, from the inside out
Log in instantly and securely with just a fingerprint or smile, thanks to the optional built-in fingerprint reader on the power button or through the FHD + IR hybrid camera and advanced facial recognition technology. The ThinkPad E15 Gen 4 business laptop also has a webcam privacy shutter, enabling you to shut the outside world out.
Music to your ears and eyes
Visually and audibly, the ThinkPad E15 Gen 4 simply excels. The 15.6" FHD antiglare display is complemented perfectly by two Harman speakers and Dolby Audio.
An enhanced all-round user experience
The FHD + IR hybrid camera deploys ThinkPad Glance face-, eye-, and gaze-tracking technology for seamless navigation. When you are on a call, two environmental noise-canceling microphones filter out annoying background sounds.
Built-in durability and reliability
Lenovo use the US Department of Defense's MIL-STD 810H standards to create a balance of reliability and durability for every ThinkPad. Tested against 12 stringent standards, 26 different procedures, and more than 200 quality checks, this business laptop will run in even the harshest of conditions, from the Arctic wilderness to desert dust storms.
