Pros and Cons

HP ZBook Fury 16 G9

Strengths

The i7 12800 HX is a CPU Beast married to faster ddr5 memory and pcie Gen 4 x 4 m.2 ssds
The poor webcam in the past has finally been upgraded to a decent 5 megapixel version
The keyboard is still excellent to type on and the larger glass touchpad you can argue is preferable to a clickpoint nib
A wealth of ports you can always guarantee a few we will not be short of i o ports two Thunderbolt 4S two USB type A's DisplayPort HDMI SD and SC card readers plus a gigabyte ethernet port
The CS Vapor chamber the calling of thermal management does a great job of keeping the otherwise hot components at Bay
Slimmed down from the G8 in weight bezels and curves however it's still a big boy to carry around with you one for keeping at your work desk and carrying another Ultra portable for client meetings
The ridiculous levels of sodium and m.2 Slots four sodium slots for up to 128 gigabytes memory and four m.2 slots for maximum 12 terabyte storage

Weaknesses

Battery life was never going to be a strong point of the fury G9 In fairness it is sold as a desktop replacement and not an ultra portable laptop
The larger Dimensions also Aid in keeping the airflow moving around chassis diet but still manages to squeeze more performance from the updated components without compromising on thermals number of ports available and upgrade options
There's a pretty price to pay but there's no doubt the zbook fury G9 is still King what do you guys think leave your comments and discuss below
The heavy and bulky 230 watt external AC power adapter downside it's heavy and bulky to carry plus side it charges the G9 quickly look at 90 minutes to fully charge it
There's healthy competition in the mobile workstation category what alternatives to the zedbox fury G9 in no particular order here's some to consider Lenovo ThinkPad p16 gen 1 Dell position 7670 MSI the ge67hx azus pro Art Studio Book Pro 16 OLED
The HP ZBook Fury 16 G9 starts from $1863 or £2269 pounds in the UK to over four thousand dollars before add-ons one for the corporate expense account to pay for
Battery consumption no surprise battery life was never going to be a strong point of the fury G9

HP ENVY 16

Strengths

It's a pretty good deal too, it's more on the fair scale rather than like a budget alternative
There's a massive touchpad on the bottom very accurate to use lots of space feels great when you click on it
The display is definitely one of the stars of the show it is a 4K OLED panel unfortunately it's 60 hertz but the color gamut is good the color accuracy is good and the screen brightness is okay
You do have Windows hello to log you in now my skin he was the I9 12900h but you can buy it with the i7 12700h
Fan noise is pretty good like you can put this on performance mode and the loudest it's going to get is 52 decibels
Heat management was fantastic on this laptop and obviously power throttles a lot in order to keep the temps down

Weaknesses

It's a little heavy at five pounds, which might not be ideal for everyone
The hinge can be a bit wobbly, which can be annoying when trying to use the laptop on a uneven surface
I wouldn't waste my money on the i9 version I would probably stick to the i7 instead if you're buying this for Content creation the Intel CPU is preferred over AMD because of quick sync
Intel's Arc gpus are not as powerful plus they're full of a lot of bugs right now that I don't think will get ironed out for a while
The battery life could be better, it gave me about four to five hours of use before needing to charge
I wouldn't recommend buying the 4K version save yourself the money get the 2K version instead
