The upgraded version with 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB SSD may be available at some retailers. The EliteBook 840 G7 is more expensive than an ultrabook with similar specs, but you may save money on upgrades and repairs in the long run.Īvailability Note: Our recommended configuration is generally unavailable. It’s also easy to upgrade and replace the 840 G7’s parts yourself, if that’s important to you, and DIY upgrades are more cost effective than ordering a ton of extra memory or storage directly from HP. Its battery life will last more than long enough for a full day of school or work, but it’s thin and light enough to slide into a bag. The EliteBook 840 G7 has just about everything we look for in a business laptop: good performance, a comfortable keyboard and trackpad, a nice-looking 14-inch 1080p screen, and all of the ports most people will need to hook up all their accessories and external monitors.
We’ll update our recommendations after we’ve had a chance to test the new models. Availability Note: HP has replaced this laptop with the G8 version, which includes newer 11th generation Intel processors.
