Schenker has launched a couple of new laptops in its 16-inch Vision lineup that the company claims to be the lightest devices in their performance class. The new Vision 16 and Vision 16 Pro come with magnesium alloy chassis, Intel Alter Lake-H processors, and 16:10 aspect ratio displays. Let’s take a closer look at the specs and features.

Schenker Vision 16 & Vision 16 Pro specs

Both models have an IPS display with a resolution of 2560 x 1600, a 16:10 aspect ratio, 350 nits of brightness, and a 99% sRGB color gamut. The Vision 16 Pro’s maximum refresh rate is 240 Hz, compared to the Vision 16 model’s 90 Hz (optional 60 Hz power savings mode).

The Vision 16 and Vision 16 Pro share the same chassis made of AZ91D magnesium alloy, measuring 354 x 245 x 17.1 mm, and both are powered by Intel’s Core i7-12700H cooled with liquid metal. The non-GPU version of the Vision 16 weighs just 1.45 kg, whereas the Pro version weighs 1.6 kg.

The Vision 16 can be configured without a dedicated GPU or with an RTX 3050 Ti that can run at up to 65 watts (50 watts TGP plus 15 watts Dynamic Boost 2.0). The Pro variant, on the other hand, includes more GPU options such as the RTX 3060, 3070 Ti, and 3080 with 16 GB GDDR6 RAM. These alternatives are efficiency-optimized due to the small chassis, with TGP up to 95 watts each (70 watts TGP plus 25 watts Dynamic Boost 2.0).

The maximum RAM capacity supported is 64 GB, with the Pro edition providing DDR5-4800 standards and the non-Pro version supporting DDR4-3200. The storage side includes two M.2 slots, each of which is coupled to four PCIe 4.0 lanes. A Thunderbolt 4 connector with charging function and DP mode is notably included, as are 2x USB-A 3.1 Gen 1 connectors, an audio input, a full-size SD card reader, and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity. The Pro version additionally has an HDMI 2.1 video output, although the non-Pro version just has HDMI 2.0. A 1080p camera and a full-size white backlit keyboard are also standard. The battery capacity is 80 Wh.
