HP ZBook Firefly 14 G10

Strengths

Excellent HP DreamColor display with QHD+ resolution and 120Hz Dynamic refresh rate.
Good battery life, up to 8 hours and 10 minutes on PC Mark 10 modern office battery test, with a slight improvement over last year's model.
Outstanding quad speakers for excellent audio, making it one of the best mobile workstations in this regard.
Portable design with optional 4G LTE or 5G connectivity
Lots of ports available and upgradable RAM and SSD
Excellent keyboard with good tactility, key travel, and multi-level backlight

Weaknesses

No OLED option available for the display
Performance could be better, especially considering it's a mobile workstation
No SD card reader is mentioned as a drawback
The device can get expensive, although discounts are available for bulk purchases from HP
Fan noise under heavy load in Performance mode can be noticeable (47-48 decibels)

Asus ROG Strix SCAR 18

Strengths

This thing is special. I It really is special.
It's got all the ports, all the connectivity, all the beautiful stuff
Playing games on this is just it's legendary, especially with that 240 Hz refresh rate
It's a fantastic laptop, and it's nice because you got the two USBAs on the right hand side

Weaknesses

It's expensive. Like I said, this as configured, this one's $33.99. It goes up like $4,400.
I wish it had a media card slot. That would be more helpful if you want to do video editing
Nobody, not everybody's going to go out and drop four grand, five grand, three grand on a gaming laptop
But I think the 30 the 5080 is perfectly fine, which still costs $3,399
