While decent in its own right, comparison with similar laptops shows HP could have minimized some of the compromises for an even more compelling ₹1,24,999 (US$1,350) proposition.

Unabashedly big with 175 W GeForce RTX graphics. Thin-and-light gaming laptops are nice and all, but they often shave off some GPU performance in order to reach a certain size and weight.

GeForce RTX 4060 at 115 watts. At this year's CES, Lenovo presented its new Legion 5i 16 G9 and we have already had the chance to test the new mid-range gaming laptop.
