I generally would never recommend mobile devices for Revit, they just can't keep up. So only get a laptop if that is the only option. 

 

I don't know laptops well and you may want to check out a PC specific forum. You may want to look for gaming laptops that have a good cooling system (You can find out in such gaming PC forum). For mobile devices 99% of the time it doesn't matter clock speed the hardware says it has. They don't have sufficient cooling and will thermal-throttle. So your 4.9 GHz CPU will only run at 4.9GHz for a second or two, then throttle to 3 GHz or so. Same for GPU. 

 

What you show above looks good.... but do some research (most users will be gamers, so they are a good resource since they will tell if that thing stutters all the time!!!) if it actually can work under sustained load (I mean cooling). If it has reasonable cooling, it is fine. if not cooled well, it is wasted money to get fast hardware. 

Revit version: R2025.4

Thanks for the good advice.
I do need mobile laptop as I work freelance at home and sometimes while away from home.
