Final Thoughts: The Medion Erazer Beast 16 X1 Ultimate (RTX 5090) provides some class-leading gaming performance in a laptop that also benefits from a sublime Mini LED screen and a great port selection, as well as surprisingly solid battery life. All of its potency comes with quite the high cost, though. With this in mind, it is arguably more of a compelling overall package than the Asus ROG Strix Scar 17 X3D for a similar price with stronger battery life, more powerful internals and a better screen. The RTX 5080 version of this laptop is also a fair bit cheaper and only compromises on the GPU. For more options, check out our list of the best gaming laptops we’ve tested.

The Medion Erazer Beast 16 X1 Ultimate is a really solid 16-inch gaming laptop that puts the emphasis on spec. That means a really powerful Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU and a top processor to match it, which doesn't disappoint. But it does have downsides where portability is concerned. If you're not fussed about that, however, then this Medion is, as its name suggests, an absolute beast.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
