Display
Lenovo ThinkPad Z13 Gen 1 comes has two variations in the display. The first one is the 1200p IPS unit which is lighter and decreases the overall weight of the laptop. The second one is a 1800p OLED panel which is touch sensitive which is definitely better but increases the overall weight of the laptop which is not an issue given the fact that the laptop is already thin and light and the OLED touch panel only increases 70g. The 1200p FHD(1920×1200) IPS has a refresh rate of 60Hz, a brightness of 400 nits, 95% sRGB coverage, and a pixel density of 170ppi.
