Other than those internal design changes, Lenovo also massively touched up the outer design. The new ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 has a redesigned keyboard with swapped FN/Ctrl keys, a new Windows Co-Pilot key / menu key, tactile markings on the keyboard and the speakers have been moved from the top of the keyboard to the sides. Also, the new 14 inch business laptop has smaller bezels as well as the reverse notch and debossed black ThinkPad logo, echoing similar changes to the ThinkPad X1 Carbon G12.
Returning to the inside, the ThinkPad T14 G5 features both Intel Core Ultra with Meteor Lake H as an option as well as Ryzen 8040U. The dedicated Nvidia GPU option that the preceding model (available from Amazon for $943) offers is longer present. Also new are optional WiFi 7 and Sub6 5G/LTE, as well as the optional 120 Hz OLED screen. For the standard WUXGA displays, Lenovo is increasing the brightness to 400 cd/m² and decreasing the power consumption, thanks to a new 3M optical film.
