Pros and Cons

HP Zbook Power G9

Strengths

great component combo... Everything feels fast and smooth with most applications thrown at it
excellent display... screen on this model is bright, crisp and has complete coverage of the sRGB color space making it a joy to view and work all day with it
upgrade options... excellent upgrade options including dual SO-DIMM slots up to 64GB, dual SSD slots for large storage requirements and a removable 83 Wh battery
great performance from fast components... tank-like build quality

Weaknesses

no SD card reader... frustrating for photographer or video content creator
only one Thunderbolt 4 port
speakers and webcam are passable but nothing special
uses old-fashioned 16x9 display while its siblings and competition have moved over to 16 by 10 16 inch displays

Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 5i

Strengths

It's a great value for you consumers out there who want a two-in-one who want some nice versatile features like that Bluetooth keyboard.
I really like this device. I think it's more than fast enough for your average person. I think it's great for a lot of office work out there and I think it even has enough power to do a little more intense stuff.
The performance at least with the I3 model is very good for your money and if you compare it out there even with the 11th gen I5 model this will outperform it or it will go neck and neck with that service for a weight that has an i5 11 Shin processor.
This does not have a deal breaker. The Surface Pro lineup is great but this goes neck and neck. I think it does very very well.
It's terrific for students who just need to do a lot of office work, it has plenty of storage for stuff like that and you could always plug in an external SSD if you need a little bit of extra storage
The 2.5K display is terrific!
This will outperform the 11th gen I5 model service

Weaknesses

Graphics capabilities aren't terrific on it.
Storage is a little bit limiting if you do get the 128 gigabyte model.
I think the webcam is not very good
It doesn't have a fingerprint sensor and the webcam and face unlock it are nothing to ride home about
The SSD is not super easy to take out, so that's one thing that's a little difficult
It could use a 120Hz screen.
