Incredible value for price: Of £1229 or $1680 plus taxes, the ZBook Power G7 has everything you need and more top-end hardware specs to get through heavy tasks and great upgrade options.
Pay the extra £80 for the Quattro T1000 over the much weaker Quattro P620 GPU: This compact dimensions of the ZBook Power G7 strikes a good balance in fairly slim workstation dimensions but keeps thermals in check with the power-consuming CPU and GPU specs.

Easy upgrade options: Two SODIMM slots for up to 64GB of DDR4 memory and two M.2 NVMe drives allowing you to easily and cheaply upgrade when you need it.
Enterprise level build with a three-year warranty
