      Bought the core ultra 9, rtx 4070, 32gb ram, 4k touch screen Dell XPS 16 for heavy 3d work loads, programming and other stuff since i am studying for robotics and ai engineering degree. should have chosen the Zephyrus but man the design is so clean and battery life is stellar for a 4k oled laptop with rtx 4070. and it only gets a little bit warm when i play genshin impact in full resolution at highest graphics quality (maybe because i am in an air conditioned room)

    I don't agree with what was said about the Macbook Air being the best general choice. I just looked into getting one, and it's such an obscene, obsolete product I think. The base price is high to begin with, and the default configuration of 8GB RAM and 256GB storage is nothing else than a complete insult, with upgrade prices being a downright robbery. So, for 1600-1800 dollars/euros you end up with a product that has 16GB RAM, only 512GB storage, with a soldered SSD that can brick your device easily, combined with a 60 Hz LCD display. That's a lot of compromises for a somewhat longer battery life. Meanwhile competing laptops offer similar build quality, 16GB RAM in the base config, 120Hz OLED screen, replaceable/uprgradeable SSD, perhaps even 2-in-1 functionality, at a significantly lower price.

      Yeah except the minute you need that computer to do anything on battery life, and have a long-lasting battery in general that you'd expect from a good work laptop, you lose in the PC department. Speaking as someone who used a PC laptop for school/work and just made the switch to Macbook and is greatly enjoying having a decent battery life for once

    My tip, Dont buy an expensive gaming laptop (4080/90) right now. The new 5080/90 equipped gaming laptops will be revealed at CES 2025 in January. Spending £2K to £3K (or more) just 6mths away from new GPU laptops will give you serious buyers' remorse. Especially if you keep your laptops for 2 or 3yrs before upgrading. Obviously, if you're a rich git and change laptops every year, feel free to ignore my tip 😊

    - Windows for gaming, work software compatibility, adjustable SSD, and ports for all kinds of accessories (wireless mouse, wireless keyboards, and external monitors).
    - MacBooks for creator professional jobs, front-end website work, DJs, and general web browsing with a high-quality built laptop.

    Answering the question on the onset: I'm using the laptop that you used for your thumbnail. :) The Zenbook Duo (2024) with the Core Ultra 9.
    I'm about above average content with it. It has its flaws for sure, and is far from being a perfect laptop. BUT, for my purposes and life as of right this second, having two screens on the go is simply an undeniable form-factor win that I couldn't say no to it.

      Manche Nutzer legen auf die technische Ausstattung ihres Laptops nicht allzu viel wert und wollen einfach nur so wenig Geld wie möglich für eine neue Tippmaschine ausgeben. Wer mit einem geringen Budget von unter 350 Euro nicht zu einem gebrauchten Notebook greifen will, sollte sich das Lenovo IdeaPad 3 bei Amazon genauer ansehen.
      Der große Versandhändler hat den Preis des 15 Zoll messenden Lenovo-Notebooks nämlich auf bezahlbare 340 Euro gesenkt, wofür Käufer einen Laptop mit dem AMD Ryzen 5 5625U und 8GB Arbeitsspeicher erhalten. Der RAM kann nachträglich für wenig Geld (ab 17 Euro bei Amazon) auf 16GB erweitert werden. Damit wird das Lenovo IdeaPad 3 zum tauglichen Office-Laptop, der zusätzlich auch eine vernünftig dimensionierte SSD mit 512GB Speicherkapazität zu bieten hat. Laut Idealo handelt es sich hierbei um einen neuen Bestpreis, erst kürzlich kostete der Laptop auf Amazon noch 599 Euro.
      Von der Farbwiedergabe des Full-HD-Displays im IdeaPad 3 darf man nicht allzu viel erwarten, aber immerhin handelt es sich um einen matten Bildschirm mit einer maximalen Helligkeit von 300 Nits. Ein Fingerabdrucksensor sowie Windows 11 Home sind ebenfalls mit an Board, mit einem Gewicht von 1,63 Kilogramm ist der 15-Zöller außerdem nicht allzu schwer. Wer den Arbeitsspeicher des Notebooks also nach dem Kauf aufstockt, der bekommt mit dem Lenovo IdeaPad 3 einen brauchbaren Office-Laptop, der aufgrund seines günstigen Preises eine sehr gute Alternative zum Gebrauchtkauf darstellt.

    Personal opinion, get 16gb of ram or at least try to find out if the ram is soldered in or if you can add more. If your looking for gaming, stay away from anything with a 50 in it. 3050,4050, or 5050(when it comes out). It's usually not worth it for what they charge. 60, 70, 80 and up is money better spent.

      Even though I hate to admit this, iMacs are the best out there in the AIO market when they have 16GB of RAM. Only bad part is that it is highly expensive. M3 iMac with 16GB of RAM costs $1,499 without the magic keyboard. With the magic keyboard it costs $1,549.
      Although, Windows dominates the customized home desktop market from quality and ROI. Especially those mini-PCs. You can get a good desktop mini-PC (including 32GB of DDR5 RAM) with a monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, and web camera for less than $1,200. With adjustable SSD too. BeeLink SER7 with a Dell QHD 27-inch monitor are a good combo.

    I'm rocking a Dell Inspiron 7586, Core i7 processor and 4k screen. I spent about $2k USD. It's a workhorse for me, I do photo processing along with my writing. While I'd love to go to a tablet for my day-to-day, my photo processing isn't just for Instagram, I sell large-format photography prints so I need to be able to upscale some of the images, and those programs need a lot of hoss. I got a Chromebook during Prime Days one year but had to give it up to my husband when his iPad and notebook died within a week of each other. I'll probably be replacing my laptop for Christmas this year, and it'll probably be another high-end Dell. Great video, thanks for the work you put into these.

    I'm sorry Tom but your statement about not worrying to much about ports is, frankly speaking, very stupid
    The reason why the MacBook has the "the ultimate combination of ports" as your said yourself, is because people complained about being adapters to use the MacBook. Back then it only came with literally USB C ports and nothing else. Dongle life was very real and people has had enough so Apple responded. Thankfully, Apple listened
    So, no. You're absolutely wrong about "just buy an adapter"

    Can someone help me in deciding whether or not this is a good deal?

    Thanks very much for this video, it answers loads of questions that were in my head. I’m a photographer using full frame cameras that produce images up to 60MP and medium format cameras with images up to 100MP; Apple aside, I’m looking for ideally a Windows laptop that has the most true to life image rendition for image editing and one that can cope with large files while multi tasking. Oh and I edit a lot of 4k video too. I saw your video on the ASUS Pro Art P16 and it looks like it’s well fit for purpose. I’d really appreciate your opinion on this laptop and if there are others that are equally as fit for purpose, especially for the image quality and resolution. Thanks again for this video and for your channel. Your reviews are a breath of fresh air and incredibly easy to follow while being super informative (I’ve subscribed). Cheers, Matt.

    Well. I was looking for something around 1500US. Went to store and tried bunch of them. I discovered that for my regular use, I still need only FullHD resolution. All my videos are in FullHD or even less. In our country all TV show are in that resolution. SnapDragon speed is amazing but FullHD or 720p are not so good on 3K displays. I found that some 4K videos look better on just FullHD. Same is on Apple systems. I thought i ll switch (after 30 y of Win) but new Surface works and feels so damn good. I know they never be in just FullHD, so maybe some day SnapDragon will be. Its ok, I have 2y old Yoga and it is fine, just the fan noise is killing me. Maybe I was to long but I think that fan noise and resolution are important factors. My old concert videos look kind a shitty on 3K or even 2K.
