Pros and Cons

Lenovo Yoga 6

Strengths

Nice 13.3 inch touch display
Decent keyboard, really good touch pad
Long battery life
Pen support is great on this although it doesn't come with the pen
Upgradable SSD and wireless LAN
Runs cool and quiet even under heavy load
Good port selection

Weaknesses

Plastic lower shell would have been nice to have aluminum
Speakers could use a little bit more bass
Screen could be brighter
It is a glossy display so if you're going to use it outdoors you may have some issues with glare and reflections

HP EliteBook 860 G9

Strengths

The device is made entirely of aluminum, making it lightweight and durable (1.76 kg and 19.2 mm profile).
The large 16-in display provides an excellent viewing experience with a maximum brightness of 509 nits.
The keyboard offers long key traveling clicky feedback, making it great for typing.
The laptop has good upgradeability options, including two SODIMM slots and one M.2 slot.
The battery life is impressive, lasting up to 23 hours of web browsing or 13 hours and 31 minutes of video playback.

Weaknesses

The touchpad can be quite finicky and skips all over the place.
The laptop's cooling system is not ideal, with a single heat pipe and fan that struggles to keep up with heavy loads.
The Core i7 processor doesn't score well in benchmarks, falling behind the Core i5 1254U-powered Dell Latitude 7530.
Upgrading to a more powerful CPU (i72 ATP model) is an option, but it's not clear if it would address the cooling issues.
The device's overall performance may suffer from heavy loads like video editing.

The Lenovo Yoga 6 Gen 2 boasts a 13.3-inch touch display with a 16:10 aspect ratio, a decent keyboard, and long battery life. This device features pen support, upgradable SSD, and wireless LAN, making it ideal for users on the go. With its solid build quality, recycled materials, and good port selection, this laptop is a steal at its starting price of $599. Performance is solid for everyday tasks, but don't expect AAA gaming capabilities.

HP EliteBook 860 G9

The HP EliteBook 860 G9 is a sleek and durable laptop that boasts an aluminum construction, weighing just 1.76 kg despite its large 16-inch display. Its rounded edges and corners make it feel even thinner in hand. With a generous selection of ports, including two Thunderbolt 4 ports and an HDMI 2.0 port, this laptop is well-equipped for productivity and multitasking. But how does it perform under the hood? And what about its battery life and display quality?
