@@LightsLuck- Prices are identical. HP's business laptops have "fake price" listed on the site, the _Real_ selling price is usually exactly half the official msrp so you can assume around $1800 USD for the 3060 model. Unlike XPS, there's a mDP port on the ZBook that allows the dGPU to connect directly into external monitors, which is an essential feature for lots of 'Pros'. Plus I don't enjoy the typing feel on the redesigned XPS keyboard, it's too shallow and flat. So overall, the ZBook Studio is the superior laptop of the two for the same price.

This is a really good looking laptop, and those bezels are amazing. However, a 3070 doesn't mean anything in a platform that constantly thermal throttles. That's the big reason the XPS only has a 3050, because they've figured out it really doesn't make sense to slap in huge GPUs that sit at 80 degrees after 30 seconds. So, I'm VERY curious to see if this thing has the brawn to back up the looks, or if it just dies a death after like 20-30 minutes of gaming. Also, that metal chassis=hot palms. The XPS uses carbon fiber, which basically never gets hot. So, that's another win right there.

On the road, I don’t need Ethernet all that often (though I do carry a mini usb-c hub with nic+hdmi). You need what you need, I just don’t think it’s necessarily representative of the needs of the majority.

Had a Zbook G6 but HP throttles the CPU's power limits to keep it cool and have a better battery life. I moved to a Precision 7560 which is not as good looking and a little heavier than the ZBook but performs much better for actual work.

As a proud owner of the new Razer Blade 14 that dig made me sad. I know Razer has a hit or miss quality sometimes but the performance of the laptop is actually amazing. Surprisingly the Razer is cheaper than this as well !

Alex: this is the laptop that you can expense to work Me: so you mean I should not have been able to get work to buy me a Razer blade 14 as I did under the guise of using it for school work too?

The latest gen (G8) ZBooks are phenomenal. I dumped my XPS 15 for the new Firefly G8 15" and boy I DON'T MISS THE DONGLE LIFE, it has 2x USB type A and 2x Thunderbolt type C. It has full size HDMI. You can charge it over STANDARDIZED 65W type C (PD) or DC jack so you don't lose that one type-C. It's also lighter than the XPS 15, better battery life (i7 1165G + nVidia Quadro vs i7 9800 + nVidia 1050), and HP's attention to detail really shows. Captive philips screws on the bottom panel (XPS has tiny torx screw that losen and disappear over time), power button on a location that you don't press accidentally when you pickup the laptop (right-thumb press), full-size keyboard on a 15" laptop (even the XPS 17 doesn't have a full size keyboard - whaaaat) plus trackpoint. The speakers are really, really good too! HP was lame on it's pro line between 2010 and 2020, but thankfully it's now back on track!

Hey would you guys consider looking at or suggesting to manufactures to make laptops designed more for music production, things like powerful cpus with an amazing built in soundcard without the need for an audio interface in a laptop could be a massive niche for someone to fill!

I really feel like 4k is overkill on a 15-inch display, and that display increases the price of an already extremely expensive laptop by a couple hundred dollars.

4k on a laptop is already pointless, so lets add 120Hz to it and make it so there's no chance it can manage it. Oh and lets also make it more than 4 grand, that'll make it a good value proposition...

I mean, if you don't mind the I7 instead of a I9 get the Gigabyte AERO 15 XC, the Gigabyt5e Software is bad but a clean install does it and it's under 2000USD at least where I found it, a little above if you want OLED.

Hah we have these (well the last gen, the G7) available for requisition at work from IT. They're SUPER expensive and pretty much only limited to senior SDEs and senior 3D/graphics designers (they have Quadros inside), but they're pretty great, much better than the regular EliteBooks the rest of us have. I was not surprised at the consumer price - pretty much no one buys these as a regular consumer, they're bought by businesses for corporate workstations in bulk for massively lower prices. It also means the IO of this thing is pretty irrelevant, since it's always used with a docking station that's pretty decked out (several DP ports, USB ports, ethernet, etc.) I don't know what they mean by "first professional keyboard", we have the exact same one on the EliteBooks lol.
@Kazz7420 Жыл бұрын
As a regular consumer going through 2 ZBooks already, I disagree on the notion that they don't get used outside businesses lol.
