Posting through my thoughts on a $4,500 laptop.
We tested and benchmarked the most expensive discrete GPU for high-end gaming laptops.
Asus launched a new entry-level gaming laptop called the V16 as well as a grab bag of new Vivobooks. Many of them are configurable with a last-gen RTX 4050 GPU and now available in the US.
The V16 starts at $949.99 for a 16-inch 144Hz display, Intel Arrow Lake chip, and older RTX 3050. Meanwhile, the Vivobooks come in various sizes and styles with AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm processor options.
HP’s EliteStudio 8 has a function every all-in-one PC needs: it doubles as a display for your laptop with keyboard, video, and mouse (KVM) switch.
Otherwise, it’s a pretty humdrum Intel Arrow Lake desktop. Though, in addition to continuing as a monitor once outdated, its webcam can photograph your background and modify it with generative AI. Time to add a bunch of Funko Pops and Gunpla to my virtual background.
