Schenker XMG Pro 17 E22: Graphics performance above all
The large vents on the side and back immediately reveal what's to be expected from the laptop. The built-in Intel Core i9-12900H and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti are allowed to consume a lot of power, emit a lot of heat, and prove their gaming skills in the process.
In particular, the graphics card with up to 155 watts ranks quite significantly ahead of the average of laptops with this configuration in our gaming benchmarks. The system also shows that it's designed for high performance when it comes to running applications. However, it should be clear that this is accompanied by an almost exaggerated fan noise.
The configuration is perfectly geared towards gaming with a really traditional gaming display with QHD resolution and 165 Hz, as well as with the RGB keyboard.
Nevertheless, the XMG Pro 17 E22 gets even better: All the important ports are located at the back. This allows it to be integrated into a larger workstation since it can be placed very tidily on a desk. When set to Silent Mode, you can actually tackle demanding tasks without the need to wear ANC headphones.
At the same time, the Schenker laptop can also score points in comparison to the competition in terms of price. This is because corners have been cut in some areas - mostly the right ones. Our review of the Schenker XMG Pro 17 E22 details the laptop's strengths and weaknesses, as well as their impact on the device.
