Pros and Cons

Lenovo ThinkPad E15 Gen 4

Strengths

This is the newest version and I've had the older ones on the channel as well it just keeps getting better with every iteration
It works really well with the universal USBC dock from Lenovo
I'm going to sell a ton of these I'm sure
The laptop PC has an AMD Ryzen 5 5625U processor, 8GB of DDR4 3200 RAM, and 256GB M2 PCI Express 4.0 storage
It has a 15.6 inch 1080p IPS display, gigabit Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6 11ax with Bluetooth 5.2, and USB 3.2 gen 1 and USBC ports
The webcam has a privacy shutter and dual microphone array
The keyboard is full-size with 10 key number pad and standard Lenovo function keys
You can upgrade the RAM to up to 40GB if you want

Weaknesses

This one is silver which is a first but still has the black keyboard which I find a bit odd
The memory score is a little disappointing, especially since it's not running in dual Channel mode
The RAM is soldered in and only comes with 8GB, so you can't upgrade to different types or capacities like some other laptops
There's a large Dead Zone inside the laptop where you would think they could add battery or another fan for better performance
The price of this laptop may be higher than expected due to its features and build quality
Some users might find the aluminum top and polycarbonate ABS bottom to be less durable than other laptops in its class
The pop clips on the inside are very difficult to get out without breakage, making maintenance and upgrades a bit tricky
There's only one fan with heat sink and heat pipes that go to the CPU location, which might lead to some performance issues under heavy loads

HP ZBook Fury 17 G7

Strengths

The machine is quite sensible
It's possible to get this machine with integrated graphics, not really sure why but apparently you can
The vapor chamber cooling on the Rtx model is quite nice
The system seems to keep the noise to an acceptable level
HP refreshes their workstation line once every year, so we're coming up to the 8th gen refresh
The G7 has a more thin and light design compared to the G6
The machine is quite manageable for managers who want something with a little power but don't want anything too heavy
The CPU has a generous power envelope, so that's quite nice

Weaknesses

You might struggle to work with the power envelope if you opt for the max specification
The charger is only 200 watts for the Rtx model or 150 watts for the standard T-series graphics based models
Lenovo's machine typically has a 230-watt charger, which could be handy
You might need to drop either the Rtx 5000 or something on the CPU side if you want to go for the max specification
The G7 is not thin and light in the ultrabook sense
There's some performance gap between the Book 15 G7 and the 17 G7, so the 17 might be faster
You'll remember that this charger is only 200 watts for the Rtx model or 150 watts for the standard T-series graphics based models
The system is not ideal if you want to go for the top-end options
