Product Overview
Lenovo ThinkPad L14 w/AMD is a 14-inch entry-level business laptop powered by 3rd-gen AMD Ryzen R7 Pro processors. It offers much of the same set of features of the Intel-powered L14 and L15 but is only available in a plastic chassis.
Despite its market positioning, the ThinkPad L14 still retains robust build quality, as it is tested against 12 military-grade requirements and more than 200 quality checks to ensure their robustness. Further, the L14 also enjoys a suite of security functions, including the integrated ThinkShield, discrete Trusted Platform Module, optional fingerprint reader, and the ThinkShutter over the webcam.
As a 2020 model, the L14 also features WiFi 6 and optional LTE-A WWAN to ensure fast network connection in all professional and personal use cases.

Reviewer score 73% (normalized by Neofiliac)The ThinkPad L14 features an AMD Radeon RX Vega 6 GPU with 8 CUs running at 1.2 GHz. This new GPU is a giant leap compared to the L490’s ancient Intel UHD Graphics 620, which is best exemplified by the fact that scores in 3DMark 11 doubled. Gaming performance was right where we would have expected it to be. Overall, the L14 performed slightly below average for an AMD Vega 6.
Pros
- Matte IPS display
- High-quality case
- Good battery life
- Good input devices
Cons
- No Thunderbolt 3
