Bring on the water. The Neo 16 is currently one of the most powerful laptops: Core i9 14900HX and GeForce RTX 4090 prepare the computer for gaming, streaming and rendering. An optional, external water cooling system squeezes every last drop from the hardware.

Still great without Mini-LED. Lenovo's flagship model and closest MacBook Pro 16 competitor packs a ton of power for the size even at the lower-end configuration. At well over $1500, however, it's also one of Lenovo's pricier Yoga laptops.

Standstill on the executive floor? Lenovo has dropped the name Yoga from its flagship convertible for business customers, now calling it the ThinkPad X1 2in1. AI marketing aside, its new Meteor Lake processor offers little performance and its high-resolution OLED touchscreen isn't entirely good. Lenovo also offers an optional haptic touchpad without TrackPoint buttons.

Like an XPS 13, but better. Lenovo's ThinkBook 13x G4 is a high-quality and compact subnotebook that delivers solid results in almost all disciplines. The IPS screen in 3:2 format is bright and offers 120 Hz, while the Core Ultra 5 125H is fast and the battery runtimes are also good. However, the ThinkBook falls short in terms of the keyboard and maintenance options.

Up to 64 GB RAM. Dell has created the new XPS 13 out of its old XPS 13 Plus and—the same as with its larger siblings—this means it has an unconventional keyboard and an annoying touchbar. The new Core Ultra processor from Intel delivers decent everyday performance, however, its IPS display is a lot dimmer than advertized.

Powerhouse. The lightweight, compact XMG Fusion 15 doesn't feature a conventional screen size: Instead of a 16-inch or 15.6-inch display, it is fitted with a 15.3-inch panel (2,560 x 1,600 pixels, 240 Hz) with a 16:10 aspect ratio. A Core i9 processor, RTX 4070, Thunderbolt 4 and very good runtimes round out its total package.

Now with Advanced Optimus, but the power supply is too weak. Lenovo has improved its multimedia Yoga Pro 9i 16 flagship of the G9 generation in several areas. The 3.2K mini LED panel with 1200 nits is optionally matte and accompanied by Advanced Optimus. We put the most powerful configuration, which has the Core Ultra 9 185H and GeForce RTX 4070 laptop, to the test.
