Pros and Cons

HP EliteBook 860 G11

Strengths

At the heart of this machine is Intel's latest 12core Ultra 7155U processor, which outperforms even the i71355U in both everyday productivity and multitasking benchmarks.
You get a staggering 64 GB of DDR5 RAM, which is more than enough to handle anything from heavy Excel crunching to high-end creative work.
The massive 4 terabytes T SSD gives you lightning fast read/write speeds and enough storage for years worth of files, software, media, and backups.
The display is another standout feature. The 16-in full HD+ screen delivers crisp detail, vivid colors, and wide viewing angles.

Weaknesses

Unfortunately, there are no specific cons mentioned in the text about the HP EliteBook 860 G11.
However, based on general knowledge, one potential con could be the relatively high price point of this business laptop.
Another potential con is that some users may find the keyboard travel to be too shallow for their liking.
Lastly, with great power comes great heat, and some users may experience thermal issues during prolonged usage.

Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 Aura Edition

Strengths

Starting at under $1300, it's a good choice for those who want to use it for office work, but also for entertainment, like movies, browsing, social media, even casual games from the e-sports area.
It has excellent autonomy, solid and light, fitting well into the current trend of laptops with decent performance.
The processor offers increased autonomy, which is comparable to that of laptops with Snapdragon processors.
You can run other titles such as League of Legends or Valorant in decent conditions, and enjoy similar performance, making it good even for casual gaming sessions.
The laptop has a dedicated button on the keyboard for Copilot+, and a decent option as the one from AMD in terms of AI capabilities.
The average FPS was at around 110 in Counter-Strike 2, and the FPS did not drop below 80 in Fortnite, except in very demanding moments.

Weaknesses

The Multi-Core score is quite low, it should be taken into account that this processor is not focused on raw power, but on intelligent use of resources.
The Cinebench 2024 score was lower than the one obtained by Asus Zenbook S14 with the same processor, although still better than the score I got on the Asus Zenbook S14.
The UL Procyon AI Computer Vision test results were less than that of Ryzen AI 9 365 processor, but the Intel processor has other benefits such as increased autonomy.
The laptop's AI-related novelties didn't make a significant difference in real-world use, according to the reviewer's personal experience.
The reviewer found it unnecessary to have an AI telling them to turn off notifications or get up from the desk when they want to focus on work or take a break.
It has some software features that sound good in theory but don't make much of a difference in real-world use.
