Sometimes you need a laptop to get the job done and be a reliable workstation for compiling reports, sending emails, and attending Zoom meetings. Man, when did your days start getting so stacked? Today’s laptop deal features a high-utility, low-cost business laptop that will operate as a desktop replacement with the added benefit of being your ride-along when you travel. The Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 2 is geared toward productivity with a snappy Ryzen 7 CPU and a large 16-inch screen that can be used without a secondary display. Should you choose to get a monitor (or two), this $280 price cut will certainly help cover that cost. 

In our review of the previous generation of Lenovo ThinkPad E16, our expert called it “a capable big-screen business laptop at a bargain price,” and ultimately awarded it an “Excellent” rating. The Gen 2 offers performance improvements with access to more powerful processors and 32GB of high-bandwidth RAM to multitask without breaking a sweat. It also features Windows 11 Pro, which offers more functionality if you’re managing multiple computers or need remote control, virtualization software, or configurable BitLocker encryption.

Those who are upgrading from the ThinkPad E16 Gen 1 will be happy to discover that the snappy, responsive keyboard and the large, smooth-gliding touchpad remain untouched. Time is money, and this computing powerhouse will help you blaze through your workload to save you both. Save $280 when you make your purchase now and secure a work laptop that can maximize what you get done during your workday.
