I honestly don't understand how you measure power consumption.

From your test method article:
"Power consumption
Idle: power consumption during operation in idle mode.
Minimum: All additional radios deactivated (WLAN, Bluetooth, etc.), minimum display brightness, and activated power-saving measures (Windows power profile: Best power efficiency)"

This here is 6.5W.

Then:
"Battery life:
WLAN operation: Achievable runtime in WLAN operation with adjusted display brightness (~150 cd/m²) and activated power-saving measures (power profile Balanced or similar). For the run time test, an automatic script (updated on 05.03.2015 to v1.3 with HTML5, javascript, and no flash) is executed, which calls up a mix of Internet pages that change constantly every 30s."

This here is 14h12m, which on a 74.5Wh battery is 5.2W, 20% less than your power consumption idle test just a paragraph earlier!
The Battery Idle test, with supposedly the same settings as the power consumption part above, gives 3.5W, nearly half of power consumption data!

I understand there are losses between wall power and the actual components' power draw, but this is exceptionally different. Or the laptop is very much throttled under battery, but under idle it shouldn't matter that much, if at all.

Great CPU, but I can't wait till they release one with the "AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX PRO 375 X3D Max+ XTX" CPU

@Russel: Elitebooks have almost nothing in common with HP's regular consumer line when it comes to structural rigidity of build quality.

That's like me commenting under a high end ThinkPad review about how I was once traumatized by a budget ideapad chromebook hinges breaking.

HP laptops have one major issue, the screen just comes off i.e detaches off the hinges....
You can just google 'hp laptop screen coming off the hinges' to see how many results you'd get.
And this is something they're notorious for.
There are other issues like increased flex and screen wobble.
So. I hope we see strix halo in a Thinkpad.

The AMD Zen 5 CPU makes the EliteBook X G1a 14 AI a powerhouse of a laptop especially for a business subnotebook without needing to sacrifice battery life or ergonomics. However, weight can be a bit heavy for a 14-inch machine while display options are limited to sRGB and 60 Hz.
