Forge Pro 16 review

Built for heavier editing and development workloads, with extra weight to match.

Best for: Developers and demanding creators

The Forge Pro 16 is the strongest laptop in this sample set for prolonged development, rendering and editing work.

Its size makes sense on a desk, but commuters should weigh the performance advantage against its greater weight and higher price.
