Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbontrabook
Rating: 4.9

Why second place: Top gamer laptop, price from 10 thousand dollars.
For whom: For gamers who need a performance notebook comparable to a desktop configuration.
Description: HP Omen-X is the most “stuffed” gaming laptop. In its current configuration, it features an i7 family processor and a desktop HQ version, which is complemented by up to 32GB of RAM. In addition, it has a m.2 PCIe SSD storage and a SATA hard drive with impressive capacity (up to 1TB).
But the main advantage of this laptop is the desktop graphics card. In particular, it is equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 graphics gas pedal with 8 GB of GDDR5 memory. This configuration is enough to run any modern game on your notebook at max or even ultra-high graphics settings.
The drawback of the laptop is the screen. Of course, the quality of display was sacrificed for the sake of refresh rate (which is 120 Hz), but it is still an IPS matrix with a resolution of F
- l HD at a diagonal of 17.3 inches.
- High gaming performance thanks to “desktop” components;
- The possibility of an upgrade;
- Attractive design with LED backlighting of everything;
- The screen resolution could have been higher; Me
- Mbranch keyboard (for that kind of money they could have put a mechanical one);
- Bulky and heavy;
- enware ALW17-5312sLV
Rating: 4.8
Why Fourth Place: Only $6,000 – somehow even inexpensive compared to the other models in the ranking.
Who: For gamers who need maximum performance.
Description: In the middle of the list is a laptop that justifies its price. Its main feature is two desktop-level NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 graphics cards with 8 GB of GDDR5 video memory at once, working in S
- -mode. Also responsible for performance is the eighth-generation Core i7 processor, which Coffee Lake. And it’s all complemented by proprietary cooling technology that keeps desktops from overheating. And then there’s up to 64GB of DDR4 “RAM” and up to 1TB of m.2 PCIe Gen3 SSD drive. However, there is a place for a classic hard drive, too.
One of the notebook’s nicest features is a mechanical keyboard based on Cherry MX switches. It also has individual backlighting for each key. It also comes with professionally tuned speakers from Dynaudio.
The screen is just a bit disappointing. With a diagonal of 18.3 inches it has a resolution of F
- l HD. But the matrix is IPS level.

Lenovo Notebook 20HK001CUS ThinkPad P71
Rating: 4.6
Why the fifth place: Unexpectedly justifiable price.
Who: Engineers, 3D developers, IT specialists and others who need a complete mobile workstation.
Description: Lenovo ThinkPad P71 in this configuration is not just a laptop. This is the first full-fledged mobile workstation in the rating. Server-level Intel Xeon processor, professional NVIDIA Quadro graphics card, 16 GB of “RAM” (however, expandable, you can add a couple of cards yourself) and SSD m.2 PCIe drive for 512 GB. All in all, everything you need for deploying servers on the go. Or 3D modeling. Or other purposes that require high performance hardware.
Like the other models in the list, this laptop is a bit “suffering” from the disproportionately small screen resolution. With a diagonal of 17.3-inch matrix – performed, by the way, by IPS technology, but with a matte finish – has a resolution of F
- l HD.
But it’s lightweight – with such professional stuffing it weighs only about 3.5 kg with battery, but no charger.

Panasonic Toughbook CF-20
Rating: 4.5
Why sixth place: Unimpressive specs, but it’s the only rugged hybrid on the market.
For whom: Builders, engineers, surveyors, geologists and similar specialists.
Description: Panasonic Toughbook CF-30 attracts not the technical characteristics. Moreover, at a price of 5-6 thousand dollars they seem too unimpressive: Core m5 processor with mobile clock speed, “operative memory” 8 GB, SSD-drive 256 GB. The screen is 10 inches FHD IPS, touch screen. In general, the market is full of “hybrids” that can offer the same features, but 10 times cheaper.
But none of them will be protected by military standards. Rubberized, shock-resistant metal body can withstand a fall from up to 2 meters. The hybrid can even be used in the rain – it’s IP65 waterproof. The design includes a serial port, smart card reader and barcode scanner. With the optional battery pack, the hybrid will last up to 25 hours.
In general, this is a device for serious business, made in the format of a laptop that turns into a tablet.

HP ZBook x2 G4 (2ZB86EA)
Rating: 4.5
Why seventh place: The mobile workstation that’s worth its $5,000.
For whom: IT Professionals who need a high-performance device that also looks good.
Description: With the release of the ZBook x2 G4 (2ZB86EA), HP has shattered the stereotype that mobile workstations look like a hunk of brick with buttons. This computer is unexpectedly thin, beautiful and stylish. And at the same time is quite good technical characteristics.
Specifically, it got a seventh-generation Core i7 ultrabook processor, 16GB of RAM (non-expandable), SSD m.2 PCIe drive for 512 GB, and a professional graphics card NVIDIA Quadro with 2 GB of video memory. But the main advantage of the device – the screen. The touch display is made with IPS technology, has a diagonal of 14 inches and a resolution of 3840×2160 pixels. It makes the laptop suitable for digital artists, graphic designers and other creative professionals.
And the built-in battery lasts about 10 hours of use. And this laptop weighs only 2 kg, which is also surprising for mobile workstations.
