HP releases new 16-inch laptop with Intel Panther Lake, Nvidia graphics and 64 GB RAM

HP has quietly released the ZBook X G2i featuring Intel Panther Lake processors and Nvidia RTX Pro Blackwell graphics. To recap, the 16-inch laptop launched at the end of March. While the company revealed how the laptop surpassed the existing ZBook X G1i we reviewed last year (curr. $2,659 on Amazon), it refrained from confirming how much the ZBook X G2i would cost.
Now, HP has revealed that the ZBook X G2i costs a minimum of $3,609 in the US. As far as we can tell, the new laptop has not yet reached other markets like the Eurozone or the UK. Currently, HP has listed seven SKUs priced up to $10,431, which are as follows:
