Pure blue workstation. With the 2025 generation, HP retires its ZBook Firefly branding, instead selling the HP ZBook 8 G1i 14 as its affordable workstation laptop. The newest version uses Intel Arrow Lake H and our particular model does not have a Nvidia GPU - can the experiment with using just Intel graphics work?

Thin and expensive. Samsung is now equipping its slim 14-inch laptop with Intel's efficient Lunar Lake processors, resulting in better runtimes. However, the price remains high, and Samsung is also slowly losing market share in the OLED panel segment.

The AMD ZenBook 14 OLED in the open

Intel ZenBook 14 OLED features Wi-Fi 7 — but the AMD version delivers faster transfer speeds

On paper, the Intel version of the ZenBook 14 OLED clearly seems to have the edge when it comes to connectivity. It comes with two Thunderbolt 4 ports and supports Wi-Fi 7, while the AMD model is limited to Wi-Fi 6E. In practice, however, that theoretical advantage doesn’t really show up.

Turning off PWM flickering on the iPhone 17 is possible, but unlikely to bring benefits

Unfortunately, PWM-sensitive users are not spared from display flickering on the Apple iPhone 17. While there is an option to turn off PWM flickering, this only works at low display brightness, and many user reports reveal that the PWM symptoms still remain.

Verdict on the Apple iPhone 17: A worthwhile upgrade from the iPhone 16

For a long time, Apple's base iPhone received only minor upgrades and lagged significantly behind the Pro models. This has now changed dramatically with the iPhone 17. Its features are now so good that the advantages of the Pro phones are almost exclusively limited to the telephoto camera.

Despite this, the price has not risen.

The MXM version of the desktop-grade RTX 4070 GPU is faster than the Radeon 8060S in gaming scenarios, but it cannot access more than 12 GB RAM for LLM AI training. On the plus side, port selection is solid and the cooling system seems superior due to the larger case, plus the price starts at $699, with a 128 GB RAM option that does not break the bank.
