Notebookcheck's Top 10 Workstation Notebooks

[ser]

You include Lenovo p1 gen 4, but not include the newer P1 gen 5 ?! Why?

[Benjamin Herzig]

We did not have a chance to review the P1 Gen 5 yet

While they are not in the same "category", as someone who is not a gamer but after a portable workstation-class hardware, I include laptops like Razer Blade 14 and Asus Zephyrus G14 when cross-shopping (and their 15" variants).

Looking at NotebookCheck reviews, G14 in particular beats all of these at a much lower price point, while being more portable and faster and having a longer runtime.  It does not match them in upgradeability (only one SODIMM slot, for instance), but I would be quite happy with 48GB of RAM (16+32) too.

I haven't bit the bullet yet simply because I worry about keyboard quality (though G14's is commended in a review), but then again, Thinkpad X1 Carbon gen9 already has a much crappier keyboard than previous generations, and it sounds as if P1 G4 and G5 have the same issue.

Can NotebookCheck compare interfaces between gaming notebooks and workstation hardware as well?

Hi,

I sent the following messages in to your webmaster and nothing has been done to rectify the problem.  Your webmaster responded back to me confirming there was a problem with the ads.  Please see my emails to you below:

Hi,

Your repeated, continuous popup ads are incredibly annoying when surfing your site.  The same one by Snigel appears every few seconds.  I have to hit skip ads but it only goes away for a few seconds before re-appearing again and again and again and again ... No matter what I do it re-appears.  I can not make them stop or go away.  Very annoying.  You really need to get rid of it as it will p*** off others as well.

Your webmasters response to me:

Hi Mark,

you are right, there seems to be a bug since two days with far too high delivery.

Thx for the hint,
Stefan

No, the problem still hasn't been fixed.  Those annoying pop up ads still keep coming back repeatedly all of the time.  Please fix this as it's very annoying when I'm on your site.

----------------------

I really can't believe how negligent and incompetent you guys are in not being able to fix the annoying pop ups on your site.  I advised you guys of it 2 days ago and you guys still haven't fixed the problem.  You guys run a real Mickey Mouse operation.

Regarding your last response to me.  You are 100% wrong.  As to availability, the Toshiba Tecra W50-A and the Fujitsu Celsius H730 are both still available on the used market.  As to still being relevant, that depends on the individual's needs who may be interested in purchasing them.  For my needs they are certainly relevant.  It is wrong and incredibly arrogant of you to arbitrarily decide for and dictate to others that just because a laptop is 7 to 9 years old that it is outdated and irrelevant.  Let the purchaser decide that, because it depends on their needs.  Both those laptops meet my needs perfectly well - surfing the web, watching Netflix / YouTube videos, using MS Office, email etc - thus, they are very relevant to me and also quite possibly to others like me who have similar needs.  I do not experience any lacklustre performance from them for my needs.  My Toshiba Tecra W50-A performs incredibly well and I am very happy with it.  Your problem is that you just want to promote the newest, latest technology.  But you forget that not everyone can afford, has the money or even wants to spend that kind of money on the latest technology.  My way, I still get to own a superior, dependable, reliable, well built laptop in incredibly good used condition but at a more affordable price because of it's depreciated value, which was $400 Cdn including the port replicator.   My way, I am getting much better value for my money than buying the latest technology at a ridiculously expensive price.   Like I have suggested before, you really need to start a new category titled Top 10 Overlooked Older Model, Business Class / Mobile Workstation Laptops.

I am a pro videographer, the best from America. To be a good videographer, must to build a computer, with a good CPU and the best NVIDIA Quadro.
All mobile workstation are "out of mind", craps, included HP, Lenovo, Dell, etc.
After the incredible story with HP, I bought, from Lenovo, P50, and I upgraded memory's, and HD.
Cost me 3.500 American dollars, included "doc station".
Now, the idiots from Lenovo, tell me: "you cannot upgrade to W11" !? A pc workstation, 3.500 dollars, is not good for W11!? Incredible !!! I have a mini Intel computer, to see at my Sony tv programs from Romania, with W11. Was 200 dollars, and is w11, 64 bit, pro !?
I call Lenovo, but I discover only idiots, no respect, no mind. Forget about China Products, for ever.
I was the first on America who made the first blue ray dvd.
I send a msg. to the ambasador from China in Canada, with my story.
I have a dog, Alla, IQ 200, and she tell me,
: "HAM!HAM!HAM!"
