HP has introduced the ZBook X 16 G2ig in China, bringing a new mobile workstation option to local professionals. The device is significant because it combines the latest Intel Panther Lake processors with support for up to 128GB of RAM. This high memory ceiling allows users to run demanding local AI workloads directly on the laptop without relying on cloud resources.
