Great to see this category updated with the latest hardware. What it reveals, however, is that the criteria for the category also need an update. As a photographer, I'm looking for a powerful machine that emphasizes CPU over GPU, that doesn't weigh more than ~2kg, can have at least 16 Gb RAM, a fast drive and at least ~90% on Adobe RGB. I don't care about an SD card reader any more since my camera happens to use another format. It's quite acceptable to plug a good multi-card reader into a port and import files that way. For me, the performance, weight and color gamut outweigh most other things, and especially a built-in SD card reader. The top machines at the end of 2018 should include things like a MacBook Pro and XPS 15.
