Unveiled today, the latest ThinkPad X1 Extreme (Gen 4) brings substantial updates to an already mouth-watering recipe. Spicing things up is an 11th Gen Intel Core CPU, Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 graphics, 5G support, and a larger 16-inch display. Only time will tell if these changes are enough to help the X1 Extreme make a name for itself. As it stands, the new laptop has all the ingredients to compete among the likes of the 16-inch MacBook Pro and Dell XPS 15....
Among the surprises is that ThinkPad X1 Fold runs Windows 10 Pro. As a result, Lenovo doesn’t have to wait on Microsoft’s Windows 10X operating system, although there are plans to offer a Windows 10X version of the X1 Fold “at a later date.” I went hands-on with the ThinkPad X1 Fold at CES and came away impressed by its sturdy fit-and-finish. Also, the PC’s 13.3-inch OLED panel is absolutely stunning and some clever software tricks make it easy to get the most out of the new form factor....
Those additions already make the C930 a more intriguing device than its predecessor. Add lengthy battery life and a sleek design, and the C930 is undoubtedly one of the best 2-in-1 laptops around. Design Another Yoga, another special hinge. This year, it’s substance over style. Gone is the swanky metal watchband, and in its place is a practical “soundbar” speaker. The Yoga C930 may not be as gorgeous as its mechanical forebear, but what it loses in beauty it recoups in functionality....
These laptops will cater to anyone who is sick of gaming on small-display gaming laptops. Why not go big and splashy with a massive 18-inch display? Lots of power and lots of screen — win! Predator Helios 16 and Predator Helios 18 Predator Helios 16 and Predator Helios 18 Say hello to Acer’s most powerful gaming laptops to date: the Predator Helios 16 and Predator Helios 18. Both offer configurations that are packed with a 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700HX CPU or 13th Gen Intel Core i9-13900HX CPU....
On top of its stunning design, the MSI GE66 Raider Dragonshield offers excellent performance from its Intel Core i9-10980HK CPU and RTX 2070 Super GPU, a smooth 15.6-inch, 300Hz panel as well as a decent 1080p webcam. However, you’ll be plagued with a display and battery life that are both below-average, an unsatisfying keyboard and a pair of mediocre speakers which is disappointing for a $2,499 notebook. If you plan on using a controller, not traveling anywhere, and are willing to sacrifice some color and brightness for a higher refresh rate, then the MSI GE66 Raider Dragonshield is definitely worth it....
When, exactly, this card will debut is up for some debate at the moment. The event may take place as early as July 30, as TweakTown’s declared that to be the case. Our sister site AnandTech, though, notes that the program for the Hot Chips conference in August briefly listed a talk entitled “NVIDIA’s Next Generation Mainstream GPU,” before removing the reference from the lineup. The latest this could fall to, though, seems to be the latter half of August, as Videocardz notes that AMD is sending invitations to its own event during the Gamescom show, which begins on August 21 this year....
