Panther Lake Arc B390 is a significant upgrade over the Arc 140T in last year's Prestige 16 by up to 80 percent while demanding almost the same amount of power.

The 2026 Prestige 16 is several steps forward for the series especially with OLED and Panther Lake now coming standard. However, some other changes aren't all roses.

Fan noise would drop from over 40 dB(A) all the way down to just 30 dB(A) albeit for a relatively steep 20 to 25 percent cut to performance.

The ExpertBook Ultra definitely impressed us at CES 2026 with its thin design and tandem OLED touchscreen, but it's gonna cost customers an arm and a leg.

Despite its versatile PC-in-a-keyboard design, the EliteBoard is probably the only keyboard without the ability to connect to other computers.

As one of the few laptops to come standard with tandem OLED, the Pro 9i 16 Aura Edition makes a strong case against mini-LED when it comes to maximizing brightness and improving HDR support.

Lenovo makes some seriously good-looking laptops, but you wouldn't know it when shopping through their website. Their product shots are so low resolution that it can be difficult to even see what ports are available.

The latest flagship Lenovo runs almost 10 dB(A) quieter for a mere 10 percent graphics performance deficit which may be well worth the trade-off for most gamers.

The Core Ultra X7 358H set the bar high for Panther Lake especially in terms of performance-per-watt. The Core Ultra 9 386H, however, is a bit less impressive.
