Lenovo ThinkBook 14 G9 IPL — A Copilot+ Laptop That Still Has Ethernet and an SD Reader
Copilot+ PC — 47 TOPS neural engineTwo Thunderbolt 4 ports and Wi-Fi 7Ethernet, HDMI and SD reader built inAluminium lid, 1.36 kg
The Lenovo ThinkBook 14 G9 IPL is a 14-inch business laptop that qualifies as a Copilot+ PC while keeping the ports most thin machines have dropped. Its Intel Core Ultra 5 325 carries a 47 TOPS neural engine, and alongside two Thunderbolt 4 ports sit full-size HDMI, gigabit ethernet, two USB-A sockets and an SD card reader — in a 17.5 mm chassis weighing 1.36 kg with an anodised aluminium lid. It ships with 16GB of DDR5 in one of two slots, a 512GB NVMe drive and a free M.2 2280 slot, a 400-nit matte display and Wi-Fi 7.
Compatibility — check before buying:
The panel is 45% NTSC with no colour calibration. It is bright at 400 nits and matte, which suits documents and code, but it is not a colour-accurate display — if you edit images or video, tell us and we will point you at a machine with a wider gamut. It is not a touchscreen and does not support a pen. The fitted SSD is a short M.2 2242 card in the 2242 slot, which leaves the separate M.2 2280 slot free for a second full-length drive of up to 2TB. The machine is Non-vPro and has no mobile broadband support at all. The low blue light certification is a software solution rather than a hardware one. Note the processor is an 8-core part — if heavily threaded work matters more than Copilot+, the previous ThinkBook 14 G8 IAL has fourteen cores.
Best For
✓ Copilot+ features running locally on the 47 TOPS neural engine
✓ Staff who move between desk and meeting room but still need ports
✓ Photographers and field staff needing an SD card reader built in
✓ Offices with wired ethernet at the desk
✓ Buyers who want 16GB now and a free slot for later
✓ Deployments wanting three years of onsite cover
Key Features
Copilot+ without losing the ports
A 47 TOPS neural engine puts it in the Copilot+ class, and it still carries HDMI 2.1, gigabit ethernet, two USB-A ports and an SD card reader alongside two Thunderbolt 4 sockets. Very few 17.5 mm laptops manage both.
Two Thunderbolt ports, and Wi-Fi 7
Both USB-C ports are full Thunderbolt 4 with DisplayPort 2.1 and 45–65 W power delivery, so either one charges the machine or drives a dock. Wireless is 802.11be Wi-Fi 7 with Bluetooth 5.4.
Room to grow in both directions
One of the two DDR5 SODIMM slots is free, taking the machine to 64GB by adding rather than replacing. The fitted drive occupies the M.2 2242 slot, leaving a full-length 2280 slot open for a second SSD of up to 2TB.
Built better than the price suggests
An anodised, sandblasted aluminium lid over a textured base, a 90% screen-to-body ratio, a 75 x 120 mm buttonless precision touchpad, a discrete TPM 2.0 chip and MIL-STD-810H testing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight
The G9 fixes most of what held the G8 back: the screen goes from 300 to 400 nits, the security chip from firmware to discrete, wireless from Wi-Fi 6E to Wi-Fi 7, and the neural engine from 11 TOPS to 47 — which is the difference between an AI PC and a genuine Copilot+ machine. The one place it goes backwards is core count: eight cores and eight threads here against fourteen cores and eighteen threads in the G8. For everyday office work and on-device AI that trade is clearly worth making; for compiling, encoding or anything that scales across threads, the older model may still be quicker. Both keep the port list that makes the ThinkBook 14 worth carrying — ethernet, HDMI, two USB-A and an SD reader. Spare chargers are in our laptop power supply range, and a Thunderbolt dock pairs with either Thunderbolt port.
Buyer’s Guide
Buy it if
You want Copilot+ on-device AI and a discrete TPM in a light 14-inch machine that still has ethernet, HDMI, USB-A and an SD reader, with a free memory slot and a free M.2 2280 slot for later.
Skip it if
Your work is heavily threaded and would benefit from the G8’s fourteen cores, you need colour accuracy, or your policy requires Intel vPro management.
Also consider
ThinkBook 14 G8 IAL if fourteen cores matter more than Copilot+ and the brighter screen. A ThinkPad T14 Gen 7 for a larger battery, LPCAMM2 memory and a smart card reader. A Thunderbolt dock if the machine will live on a desk.
