Pros and Cons

Lenovo ThinkPad L13 Yoga Gen 3

Strengths

Convertibles are getting very good so buying one is a very good option if you have the cash to spend
The laptop reaches great portability status weighing 1.32 kilograms and having a profile of 17.1 millimeters
The keyboard is a traditional Thinkpad unit with long key travel, clicky feedback, spill resistance, and a track point with physical buttons above the touchpad
Panel on the front comes in with a 1610 aspect ratio, FHD+ resolution, and an IPS panel that is pretty good having a max brightness of nearly 300 nits

Weaknesses

No specific cons listed for this device

Lenovo ThinkPad L13 Gen 3

Strengths

Lenovo has fixed all of its flaws with the ThinkPad l13 Generation 3 making the laptop smaller and giving it a 16 by 10 display
The laptop has lost some weight slimming down to 1.25 kilograms, 140 grams less than the Gen 2 product
The keyboard is island with a fingerprint reader above it and a touch pad below it typing on it is comfortable mostly thanks to the clicky feedback
The display is surrounded by relatively thin bezels, has excellent viewing angles, a peak brightness of 338 nits, and a very high contrast ratio of 1910 to 1
The bottom firing speaker setup is surprisingly loud while all frequencies are free of deviations
The battery life is good, lasting for 8 hours and 20 minutes of web browsing or eight hours of video playback

Weaknesses

The keyboard has shorter key travel than usual but the spill resistance and backlight manage to sway us in its favor
The display covers only 56 percent of the sRGB color gamut, which might be a deal breaker for some people who need color accuracy
The ThinkPad l13 Gen 3 makes some sacrifices which might be a deal breaker for some people, however these people aren't the hardcore business audience
The upgradeability is poor with up to 32 gigabytes of solder DDR4 memory and only one small M.2 PCIe slot
The processor (Ryzen 5 Pro 5675u) is not the best performer and is outclassed by the HP Elitebook 640 G9's Core i5 1235u in both Cinebench and Photoshop tests
The laptop has zero PWM usage, but this might be a drawback for some users
