Pros and Cons

Acer Nitro 16

Strengths

Great performance that matches up with $700 to $1,000 more expensive laptops
Excellent build quality
Good battery life
Stellar export time in Premier Pro (2 minutes and 26 seconds for 4K)
Good performance in Blender Classroom

Weaknesses

Lower-end plastic material on the bottom cover that could be improved
Not great performance in Solid Works due to non-workstation GPU
Some slight issues with export times in Premier Pro (compared to top performers)
Wish for a better material and aesthetic feel to the laptop
Some minor frame drops in 6K footage

Asus ExpertBook P5

Strengths

The expert book P5's keyboard is well built with decent travel on HK strike
It has a physical IDing privacy Shadow, which I do like having rather than a digital or software one
The expert book P5 does rather well in GPU performance, making it suitable for calculations and work that involve leveraging the GPU
It has full Windows app compatibility, which is an advantage over co-pilot plus PCs running on arm

Weaknesses

The design of the ExpertBook P5 is not exactly fancy, as it's a business-centric model with an AI focus
The battery life of the ASUS X P5 is still quite disappointing, despite being decent for most purposes
It doesn't live up to ASUS's hefty battery life promises, which claimed up to 28 hours of battery life
While avoiding arm compatibility issues, it doesn't compete with the best co-pilot plus PCs running on arm in terms of battery life
