For the laptop. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Top-end gaming and work speed
  • Sharp 240 Hz OLED with full DCI-P3 colour
  • Premium-feeling, well-built body
  • Thunderbolt 5 and plenty of other ports
  • Around 7 hours of video in Eco mode
  • Handles QHD gaming easily
  • Balanced mode keeps noise moderate for the speed

Cons

  • CPU and GPU temperatures run very high
  • Speakers lack bass
  • No burn-in protection settings for the OLED
  • Colours need calibration out of the box
  • Touchpad feels below the rest of the machine
  • Very expensive
  • Turbo mode adds little speed for much more noise
  • Profesional ReviewAug 2025

    Tested Core Ultra 9 275HX + 175 W RTX 5090, 64 GB, 2x2 TB (EU unit): among the fastest laptops of its class with a lovely OLED, held back mainly by hot-running cooling and thin sound.

  • GeektopiaOct 2025

    Tested Core Ultra 9 275HX + RTX 5090, 64 GB, 4 TB (EU unit): the reviewer's favourite laptop so far, fast and not too loud in Balanced mode, but priced only for buyers who want the very top.

  • LaptopMediaJul 2025

    Tested RTX 5090 version: huge CPU and GPU power and a vivid OLED, with a few practical slips such as a mirror-like screen.
