Pros and Cons

Lenovo ThinkPad Z16 Gen 2

Strengths

The gorgeous OLED display is excellent.
Excellent CPU performance per watt, really good modern industrial design, actually a big fan of it.
Zen 4 Ryzen Pro options here, fast SD card reader, good battery life even with the OLED option, expect even better battery life for the IPS offering.
The sensil haptic touchpad here is improved this time around, very responsive and works as you'd expect, very very seamless and very very good.
The keyboard is actually really good, the tactility, feedback, overall key travel was very good.
Very good results when it comes to scrolling and doing all the gestures with the touchpad.
Dual user-facing speakers with Dolby Atmos, which helps with the spatial audio, and the sound is pretty good in dynamic mode.
The modern industrial design actually a big fan of it.
Good battery life, even with the OLED option.

Weaknesses

No specific cons listed for this device

MSI Raider GE67

Strengths

The MSI GE 67 HX performs only about 20 worse than the GT77, but it's about half the price of that machine
It absolutely smashed in every way possible apart from build quality and design compared to the Razer Blade 14
The OLED on this thing is absolutely amazing and I found myself staring at movies and also games a lot longer than I had anticipated
If you buy two of these machines for the price of a GT77, now I do find it hard to say that something that costs almost $4000 Australian dollars is at a decent price point

Weaknesses

The build quality and design are not as good as the Razer Blade 14
It's still quite expensive with a price tag of almost $4000 Australian dollars
It can get quite hot during intense gaming sessions, although the cooling performance is decent
The performance in Metro Exodus without DLSS on was almost unplayable at an average of 48 fps
