It is really weird to see those disadvantages and this article from Allen? I do not get it.Cuz it sounds like NBC got paid by someone and has to give some disadvantage of this machine which make no sense.
1. No Copilot+? Of couse as it is an AMD based machine, even with Intel Ultra, it is Copilot instead of Copilot+ 2. SSD Throttle: Yep,as they used outdated PM9A1 SSD, of course it would be. I got units come with PM9A1a(990Pro) and PC801(SKH P41) and both works like a charm. 3. No P3, brightness is low indeed but P3 is not necessary.
In a word, I think your socre is not fair to HP. NBC always overrated ThinkPad and ignore how shitty machines they make recent years. I do not get it, maybe due to HP's marketing budget. If such things continue, I doubt how many would still believe NBC as the benchmark of all assorted reviews. As a 11yrs reader, I do not feel good about it. partitcuarly when ourselves start to write articles and paid marketing as well. HP generally always better than lenovo these days.
HP's datasheet says "Memory card device: 1 smart card reader (select models); 1 SD card reader (optional); Nano SIM card slot (optional)". MicroSD is not mentioned. (Maybe the author is mistaking the Nano SIM slot for a MicroSD slot?) (For purchasers who use MicroSD cards, a MicroSDCard to SDCard adapter might be a useful add-on.)
The ZBook Power 15 series has grown up to a more modern 16-inch form factor. The larger and heavier size, however, has unfortunately not translated to faster graphics performance.
