Pros and Cons

HP ZBook Power G10

Strengths

The HP ZBook Power G10 has a sleek professional aesthetic look with a boxy design that I like.
It's constructed from premium materials, feels solid and durable, and has a spill-resistant feature on the keyboard.
The laptop has Lightning Fast storage, HP auto frame, and HP fast charge, making it a great choice for demanding professionals.
The SSD is very fast, powering up in around 17 seconds, which is quite impressive.
It's lightweight and manageable to walk around the house or travel with, making it ideal for frequent travelers.
The audio quality is surprisingly good, even though it's not Pitch Perfect, and has a nice crisp sound.

Weaknesses

My old HP Pavilion laptop started up quicker than the ZBook, but that's expected given its age.
The ZBook did struggle to load up in comparison to my old laptop, taking around 1 minute and 7 seconds.
I was surprised by how quiet the laptop is even when processing heavy-duty workloads or editing spreadsheets.
I had to check if my old laptop was actually alive, as it took a while to load up!
The ZBook isn't at the level of a Macbook M3 Pro Max in terms of performance, but it's still a strong contender for demanding professionals.
The keyboard backlight is not mentioned as a con, but rather as a positive feature that I was impressed by.

HP EliteBook X G1a

Strengths

HP hit a home run... they got it right with the displays
Great keyboard, great build quality, great design
Excellent camera on it as well so if you do a lot of video conferencing and stuff like that this certainly will get the job done
This is the best performing 14-inch business laptop on the market as far as Windows is concerned

Weaknesses

The only thing that's a negative here obviously is the big price... it's definitely uh sign of the times this is not just specific to this laptop but the Dell's came in high far as business laptops lenovo's thinkpads are high right now everything is High
The ram is uh soldered into the motherboard obviously with this but it's not upgradeable by the user
It's definitely uh sign of the times... you're going to pay a premium right now so that is just something you'll have to deal with
The overall takeaway is you're going to pay a premium right now
