Our Verdict
Dell Precision 3591 (2024)
Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 (2024)
The Lenovo ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 (2024) is much better than the Dell Precision 3591 (2024). The ThinkPad is a more premium laptop that provides a better user experience. It has a better keyboard, a larger haptic touchpad, a higher-quality webcam, and a significantly longer battery life. Also, it's available with sharper, brighter displays, including a 4k+ OLED panel. While both laptops are configurable with Intel Meteor Lake CPUs and NVIDIA GPUs, the ThinkPad has more options, as you can get it with a GeForce or RTX Ada Generation Laptop GPU, and it has a higher-end RTX 3000 Laptop GPU option as well.
