Thank you for the excellent review. I've been doing a lot of research on which laptop to buy, as I'm a structural engineer starting a small business and I will study my Master's degree in the UK in September. I think this laptop is the one. I found it in Newegg with a discount for $1,250 USD.

True, it's often overlooked especially when HP only had big chunky models a couple of years ago. Now with the different Intel CPU's, HP finally have a nice range of mobile workstations from the 15u, 15v, x360 and the 15/17's. With each review, I've fallen in love with the ZBook's. Watch out for my next review, the HP ZBook Studio x360. - YL

I have the ZBook Studio G5 with a Xeon 6 cores 12 threads processor, a Quadro p1000 and the 4K dreamcolor screen and its a beast, a lot better than any laptop with and i7 or gtx 1080 / or amd card for After effects or 3D/VFX softwares. Even this Quadro P600 will be a good choice for a mobile workstation.

Literally the only problem I have is that for some reason, if it's in sleep mode and not plugging, it'll occasionally wake up when I haven't opened the screen or touched the keyboard at all. I've just made a habit of shutting it down when it's not plugged in (not much of a problem since SSD is a quick startup/shutdown).
