What reviewers say

Both reviews find it a capable workstation with a sharp OLED screen option and strong processor performance, but expensive, with only modest RTX PRO 500 graphics. TechRadar found it light enough to carry all day, whereas PCWorld found it big and heavy with disappointing battery life, though it praised the keyboard and the upgradeable memory and storage.
