Lenovo have finally announced their new top workstation laptop based on ultra 200 HX and NVIDIA RTX PRO Blackwell

Despite the title the 180W total power limit seems more like an announcement that they are getting out of the high end workstation laptop market?
 

Plus sides are Ethernet is back, and there are some ports on the rear but I would prioritise power over convenience of rear ports. 
 

Also doesn’t really seem that much smaller/ lighter than Dell/HP so why limit power so much?

 

 If they at least limited the graphics it would be more credible but announcing a laptop with and RTX 5000 Blackwell with so little power seems like pure marketing to me

 

Dell went the other way limiting their Pro Max Premium with 165W power to the H series CPUs and RTX 3000 Blackwell and it is a bit slimmer/ lighter than the Lenovo and Pro Max 16 Plus

Thought it’s worth posting this atleast to compare with the Dell Pro Max 16/18 Plus and HP Fury 16/18 G1i.
