      For that they would need Microsoft to include consumers in their development and production scope. Windows Central is still a consumer-facing portal, and Microsoft is letting consumers henceforth Windows Central behind. I am disappointed as well, but I expect less and less subscribers because of this. :(

    As much as I love the 1040 X360 size and form factor, for the same price in Canada one can get the Zbook Studio X360 with an i7-8750H cpu, a Quadro P1000 gpu, a 4K display and better ports. The memory and storage sucks on the Zbook (HP has a very limited model selection in Canada and doesn't offer customization here), but you can easily swap those out for something better yourself. I think this makes the Zbook a better buy, so long as you don't mind the slightly larger size.

    Make sure to buy the one with the privacy screen to get a brighter screen. Also the 4k is nice but hard to find as most IT departments don't feel the need for 4K laptops.

The price for the g6 with 1tb and 16gb is £1,770 but I want to get something that lasts long, is convertible, has good battery life and can run DaVinci and this looks like the best laptop for it and I love its design, especially when compared to the spectre

    Hi Daniel. I would like to ask a question. Everyone is making a huge fuss about the display and couldn't get my hands on any of these in Taipei. I am thinking of going with the G6 and there is only a matte option. Can i know whether, based on your tests that display is ok for extended work sessions? I do research, browsing and writing articles for long hours. The sole alternative i see is the Dell 4200 2 in 1 as my X1 Yoga didn't live up to the expectations. Thanks in advance for any help.

  • @alvanderlaan155
    @alvanderlaan155 5 років тому

    I have the 840 G5 and after the last bios upgrade the fans are not as active. What needs to happen though is to have two fans in it so it can spin at lower speeds and still cool the laptop properly.
    I simply do not understand why HP is not standardizing the port selections. Mine has for instance a barrel power plug, why not two USB-c ports? the cooling has the outlet on the side, this can be a hindrance on a desk when there is paperwork in the way blocking the outlet. i do not understand the need for an x360 model with this kind of weight. There are much better devices in the enterprise to use for drawing and taking notes. Screen: well you touched on it, the softening of the screen is bothering my eyes. i have contacted HP and they are sending someone out to take a look with me at it. I also find the screen to be very "red" even after the calibration. maybe it is my device only, just wanted to get some feedback. The delete key is absurdly small and placed right on top of the Home key - useless!! and leading to many typos.
    Overall the speed of this Elitebook is satisfying to very good, keep in mind to have both channels filled with memory (2x8 or 2x16) to occupy all 4 lanes. Yes, a separate graphics card option should be added.
