About this deal

After the review of the 14-inch Latitude E7470, which scored a very good 89%, we continue with one of the biggest rivals: The EliteBook 840 G3 is HP's answer to Dell's business Ultrabook. A look at the final score immediately shows: 87%, so Dell has the upper hand in terms of build quality and choice of components. Why does the EliteBook 840 G3 miss a very good rating?

"HP EliteBook 850 G4 Notebook PC Datasheet" (PDF). hp.com. HP Elite x2 1012 G1 tablet with Intel processors was introduced with this generation. The product was announced in November 2015. [109]No flaws here, which is true for many parts of the chassis. The 14-inch notebook is surprisingly light, but 1.58 kilograms (~3.5 lb) is still easily beaten by theEliteBook Folio 1040 G3(1.4 kg/~3.1 lb). The real rivals ThinkPad T450s(1.8 kg/~4 lb) and Dell Latitude 14 E7470(1.7 kg/~3.7 lb) on the other hand are much heavier. One of the main reasons is the lower battery capacity of the 840 G3 (46 Wh); Latitude and T450scome with 55 and 96 Wh modules, respectively, so the weight difference would be very small with similar batteries. The Core 2 duo of EliteBooks was the xx30 series. Before that, HP's p- and w-class ( professional and workstation, respectively) notebooks were not branded as EliteBooks, nor did they have the EliteBooks' distinctive anodized aluminum styling. August 11: 8530p, 8530w and 8730w; [8] August 18: 2530p and 2730p; [3] September 8: 6930p announced [9] Unfortunately, HP does not present a balanced configuration that would justify the high price tag. It is clearly an ambitious device, but in our opinion, the TN panel with its limited viewing angles, poor contrast and low color accuracy is not a good choice for this price range, which is also reflected by the rating. The Latitude E7470managed a display rating of 86% despite the glossy touchscreen, and the HP 840 G3 scores "only" 82%. The webcam is also pretty bad and the connectivity is not that good, either. All these things are the reason why the 840 G3 business device misses a very good rating and has to live with the second place behind the Latitude E7470.
