A laptop that meets you where you are
With up to AMD Ryzen™ PRO R7 6000 Series Mobile Processor, the ThinkPad Z16 AMD delivers some serious power-8 cores, 16 threads, and 12 GPU cores mean there's not much this laptop can't do. Enjoy our best videoconferencing, AI-powered audio enhancements, and epic battery life. Combined with the responsiveness of up to Windows 11 Pro, this powerhouse blazes through tasks lightning-fast.
Looks good-feels even better
The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop takes sustainability to a new level with its sleek Arctic Grey 75% recycled-aluminium chassis. A glass haptic ForcePad rather than the mylar trackpad on previous ThinkPad laptops improves usability and navigation with increased size. Plus, packaging on the ThinkPad Z16 AMD is made from a bamboo-sugarcane fiber that's 100% rapid-renewable and compostable. Going green never felt-or looked-so good.
Raises the bar on collaboration
The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop features a Communications Bar front and center. Sure, it's got a camera-and with FHD infrared technology, it's a really good one at that. But with adjustable settings, integrated AI-based noise-cancelling mics with Dolby Voice®, and facial-recognition login capability, it's truly a collaboration tool for interacting with the world. There's even an e-shutter that turns off the camera with the press of a key.
Redesigned keyboard that even takes notes
Renowned for comfort and navigation, our ThinkPad keyboard just got even better. A glass haptic ForcePad. A dual-function TrackPoint that you can still use like a mouse, and you can double-tap to launch the Communications Quick Menu settings to optimise audio-visuals. There's even a Dictation Toolbar for handy speech-to-text transcription-how's that for taking notes?
Ground-breaking security technology
All of our ThinkPad laptops include ThinkShield, a suite of security solutions engineered to safeguard your business. The ThinkPad Z16 AMD laptop also includes ground-breaking chip-to-cloud technology with Microsoft Pluton, resulting from a partnership between AMD and Microsoft-working in conjunction with data encryption and biometrics. Plus, an electronic shutter controlled by the F9 key ensures the camera stays off.
Eye candy & eye protection
Enjoy rich detail and go with the low power WUXGA panel 1920 x 1080 resolution with 100% sRGB colours available-with or without touchscreen. All options include low blue-light display to help reduce eye strain.

As an international traveller you are entitled to bring a certain amount/value of goods that are free of Customs duty and exempt Goods and Services tax (GST) into New Zealand. This is called your duty free allowance and personal goods concession. It is important to review these for any purchases you make on The Mall.
Your duty free allowance entitles you to bring into New Zealand the following quantities of alcohol products free of customs duty and GST provided you are over 17 years of age. You do need to be 18 years or over to purchase.
- Up to six bottles (4.5 litres) of wine, champagne, port or sherry or
- Up to twelve cans (4.5 litres) of beer
- And three bottles (or other containers) each containing not more than 1125ml of spirits, liqueur, or other spirituous beverages
Goods other than alcohol and tobacco, whether purchased overseas or purchased duty free in New Zealand, that have a combined total value not exceeding NZ$700 may also be brought as part of your personal goods concession.
When travelling overseas there are legal limits on the amount of duty free alcohol and other goods you can take with you. These amounts will vary depending on the country you are flying into. We always recommend you check the latest limits and exemptions.
Your order can be picked up at an Auckland Airport Collection Point. There is one in departures and one at arrivals in the international terminal. Alternatively, if you are arriving between 11pm and 6am you will be able to collect your order from our lockers. See map
