My experience with ThinkPad L13 Gen 6 (13" AMD), ordered via lenovo.com:

CPU-Z reports DDR5 7500 instead of 8xxx advertised.

I disable fan on all my laptops, because I prefer silence to speed. CPU's configured max temperature seems to be 73 degrees in L13. My ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 has de facto the same ryzen 7 pro CPU, but I have seen its CPU temp rise to 85 degrees, and the body of t14 is warmer overall when i compile stuff. This means that T14 has better passive cooling, and is thus more performant in the long run.

I configured L13 to have keyboard without highlight, and regret this decision: the keyboard on L13 is made of cheap rough plastic. I suspect that keyboard with highlight would have a more polished plastic.

The display on L13 seems to show strange antialiasing/blinking artifacts, but this might be just linux driver issue. Still T14 and E14 work absolutely fine in this regard (same debian linux distribution, kernel 6.18).

Overall I get a much better feeling using my T14, and L13 I only use when I am on the go because it weights less.

Three Lenovo ThinkPad L series laptops have been refreshed. Among the new models are the L13 Gen 6, L14 Gen 6, and L16 Gen 2. The latter two can be equipped with up to AMD Ryzen AI Pro 300 series and Intel Arrow Lake-H CPUs.
