Who’s watching this on their elite book x2 ? I will run this laptop till it won’t go no more then I will upgrade to this fine piece of equipment that is featured in your vid! XD
I was thinking of picking up one of these, and this review was really helpful! I'm probably going to buy one very soon
At first i was shocked by the thermals until you said “fahrenheit“ 😂
Relax pal
thank you for this review
Absolutely amazing and incredible laptop.
So far , this may be my favorite convertible for 2017. It checks all the boxes, with very few weaknesses. The only thing I can ding HP on is the brightness of the display, which is not bad, just I prefer a brighter panel. Other than that, you can't go wrong with the HP Elitebook x360. What do you think? Let me know.
Thank you sir, that was awesome review I like it. Sir did you said core i5 7th gen does not have privacy key button?
From brightness and outdoor use point of view, which notebook you'd recommend?
Also you have a beautiful startup sequence with camera view rotating around the 3D Letting for your AMDtech. Perhaps you could do a tutorial in how you did that. Thanks again
This guy is an excellent reviewer. He knows what to focus on.
exactly 💯
it has been a week since i have been using it and iam commenting on this video with it!
it sure is a good laptop!
Hi there. Some users are commenting about its heat after using heavy programs, and also the fan noise become louder eventhough they are not in heavy duty. How about yours, do yo experience the same problems? Thanks.
Just bought a refurbished unit and I'm pleased so far (I have had it for less than a day). Your review was one of the reason I purchase it (also my old HP Pavilion G6-1a35ca died of old age ~10 years old). I also now have a few more questions to ask my vendor.
How is it?
@@mikhaelahmad4330 I wish I could tell you. I am presently having a running dispute with the place I bought it from and my credit card company. As soon as I started setting it up it said there was a problem with my sound drivers. I contacted the place I bought it from and it has been a nightmare, then I contacted my credit card company and just compounded the nightmare. Like I said it was a simple sound driver problem and the company I'm dealing with doesn't want to honour the warranty.
How is it after 3 months?
Does it charge through usb type C
@@jn9550 I do not remember as I returned it to the store that I bought it from. I had problems with it and they would not honour the warranty. I eventually had to go through my credit card company to get the issue resolved.
I have just received this laptop from my Company (the i5-7300 model).
It is very good for office usage (fast, reliable and with a very good battery)... and I am not just saying this because I work for HP Inc (Romania) :p :).
Man your review is one of the best review i have ever seen Great keep it up Love from Pakistan
just subscribed, great review!
Very underrated. Great job
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
Hi! Nice review. The best I have seen so far. Congratulations! About the Elitebook laptop, I really loved it and I think I am gonna buy it. But shouldn’t I wait for an update? I think this laptop is one year old already, isn’t it? I would like to see this same laptop with one more USB-C port instead of 2 USB-A. And when they update I hope they keep the nice keyboard and do not mess it up like Apple did with MacBook Pro...
Anyway, could you find out when HP is planning to update this machine and what to expect for
changes? Thanks!
Another informative and interesting review, well done. Thank-you. Are you planning on doing a "end of year' review and reflect on the best in main categories. Thanks again.
I appreciate you bro
This channel is so underrated
Thanks 👍
Iam buying this tomorrow!!!!
Yayy I love how it has micro sd
Thank you very much sir
Today just see this machine and tomorrow is the day when i will own this.
This is awesome, now I'm gonna buy it
Hey have you bought it’s? How is it
Great, in-depth review! Subscribed as soon as I watched it. I just scored a refurbished model from Walmart but the battery is dead. lol. Love everything else! Would you advise replacement with an OEM part or can I get something comparable from Amazon? Also, I've read there are two connector types, "A" and "B". I have no idea which one it is unless I open the back, which I don't want to do more than necessary. Thanks for your expert advice!
Can you review the HP EliteBook x360 1030 G3. It's the newer version of this laptop and fixes most of the flaws this one has.
Great review, wish they would make one with a 4k screen and a nvidia gtx
Great video
Dear Andrew, Have you reviewed the 1UX17PA 4G Mobile and Ultra HD? This is a really great and comprehensive review for which I am greatful.
Nice presentation. Can I put a 1 To SSD M.2 on it instead of 256G ?
I'm always amazed by your low subscriber count. Quality is top notch and very thorough :)
Thanks Martin, really appreciate it! The channel has been growing at a steady pace, (just not fast enough for me, lol!). I really do appreciate the support. More videos coming. Stay tuned.
Nice, accurate review as I watched it from the same device. Love this this machine!
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
How is it working now
Great laptop.
Great reviews, very detailed
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
How do you think about this laptop in 2021? Is it wort it to buy?
Great review. I really like this one! Lots of ports and super battery life. One question, can you open it up and upgrade the SSD yourself?
This will be shared here in roughly 18 minutes.
Thanks Tim! Only the SSD is upgradeable. Everything else is soldered on. I am planning on opening it up tonight may post a short video.
Just bought a used one for good price, hope it will be a good choice for my study and future work with programming and such.
Hi Richard, is it serving you well for programming? I want to get it for the same purpose
hi Richard, is it still working for you?
Teşekkür ederim.
Hi good job.
I own a x360 1030 G4 but it heats up significantly while charging. its brand new but it still heats up
I also own EliteBook 1030 G3 It heats up while charging or browsing. it seems 8th generation processor is not good.
If this time I want to buy second hand old this model...that how much price is batter with this all specifications and 1 year store warranty
I HAVE THIS its really good however it has one downside if the touchpad fails to work check the screen first as its possible the sensors in the screen/lid can lock up and keep the unit in tablet mode which switches off the touchpad my 1030 got replaced and only found the real problem after the third HP tech attempted fix. Its a great pc even 3 years on its still very quick, benchmark testing is not the same as real world computing. I made a video and will publish it soon HP India support has been fantastic -UK level 2 not so good lol
Thank you for your genuine review. I have a question. Does the unit overheat while using? Does it throttle? How much time does it take for a single charge when used to browse the internet? Can it run windows 11?
Well , will u plz tell me which driver is already installed for fingerprint scanner in this model? becoz mine is not working.
Anyone have some idea as to when the Elitebook x360 will be upgraded to 8th Gen processors ? The Spectres already have them...
Can you tell me the model of the pen you used in the video?Thank you
Seems like you must use specific USB c charger. Not just simple cable from android charger.
does it heats up while charging, browsing and typing? let me know. What about the battery durability does it last 12 hours while browsing?
Please
does the sim card port really work.
How work
Thanks for the very thorough and informative review. I just got one of these from my company but didn't receive any documentation. I was wondering about the card-like piece and finally found its purpose here in your review. I've only had this machine a few days but I can already tell it's going to be my favorite laptop ever. Thanks again.
3:26 Can you please mention the model number of the stylus?
As streamline and intuitive as the fully articulating hinge is, PCs that have it like this seem incredibly risky to use to me. Tablet mode has you setting the deck face into a surface of questionable state. Any food or grime will smear the surface and any grit or rough texture will scratch and mar the otherwise beautiful anodized aluminum. Microsoft's separating hinge solution on the Surface Book, while deeply flawed at this point in its cycle, is the safest and most attractive solution I've seen (though not terribly intuitive). Anyone have a different experience? I'd consider getting one of these in the future.
can you put a dedicated graphics card in it?
Detailed review
I bought HP tilt MPP2.0 and it's not working with this laptop, couldn't find any support.
One question, it can charge with usb c charger?
Please send the link to purchase the pen 🙏
Solid all rounder laptop. The only two downsides which held me back - Low NITS (~250) and Lack of INSERT key. Bad choice for programmers.
External keyboard can do
is it good for graphic designing?
Any overheating problems?
Can we use this for gaming ???
Hello what's the original price of this Hp Elitebook Core i5 7th gen?

Widget on your smartphone at 5:05 ?
thank 4 d review. it has some features specter doesnt have but specter is more sexy. am confuse
You can't go wrong with either device, both are excellent. The Spectre x360 is a very sexy laptop in its own right for sure.
Please how can i insert my sim card
Bluetooth and wifi ?
My SIM card port is not popping out. Anyone with the same problem?
Do you think using Lightroom 6/CC (or any other photo editing software) runs well if you do medium - heavy edits? Thanks!
mine's always dying haha but I'm not an expert and maybe I just wasn't lucky with the buying.
4 years late but im sure it’s decent if it’s 16gb ram
i am a student and i am very confused between this one and the spectre x360. this one have 7th gen core i5 with ddr4 ram while the spectre has quad core i5 8th gen with ddr3 ram. the build quality, screen and speed being my major like factors, which one do you think i should go for?
It's been 5 years
What laptop did you buy?
@@IlmaanKiyas wow, 5 years.
So I got the Elitebook. And I was right, it is still going strong. Amazing build quality.
How is the laptop now ? Is it still valuable ?
Background music overwhelms your voice in this video. Usually you are crystal clear. This video is very difficult to watch because of the loud background music. Would also be interested in review of Toshiba x25w-d
Can buy in 2022?
IT USE FUULL!! PLEASE PUT DOWN HOW TO OPEN THE PLACE OF SIM CARD
How much is this laptop?
What is the 2 charging port options. Looked like Samsung S8 type-C charging pin can also work. Is that true. Can the Samsung adaptor would also work on it?
I'm trying qc galaxy charger and power led flashes. Won't turn on.
If this had the same display as Spectre x360, I would have bought it. Still waiting for perfect convertible. I believe the Yoga 920 will be the one.
I would have an eye on the Asus Flip S too :)
Simon I'm afraid that the Flip S has the same, terrible keyboard as the Zenbook 3 - it has almost no tactile feedback. Also the pricing is a little bit high, currently Flip S base model (i5/8G/256G) costs the same as top-end Spectre x360 (i7/16G/512G) in my country.
Can this laptop play Dota2?
I just received mine. Does anyone know what the string and ring that come with the stylus are for? I can't find info on it anywhere.
the Ring is to remove the tip of the stylus so you can replace it when it gets worn out.
Thank you makes sense although I've never seen that before. Any idea how you are supposed to connect that strap?
Please tell me which one is better
HP elite book g2 or macbook pro 2015 13"
what did you decide? need inspiration hahah
In Norway this pc cost 2000 pound
Safe to assume the 4K version of the screen will have the same lackluster brightness?
And as a guy that likes to run laptops into the ground and purchase them as infrequently as possible...am I crazy for wishing it had 2 USB-C ports (like the Spectre X360s), instead of 2 USB-3 ports? The two USB-C ports feels a lot more 'future-proof' to me.
Good review as always!
Does it support touch with fingers? or only by special pen!
Both
Does this have backlight keyboard??
Yes.
Does it have a 4K display?
Yup
Having an old school charging port is just a waste of space when you have a thunderbold 3 port. I know that is for business users but again, it is simply a poor use of space. Another USB C port would have been better. I think that saying those drive speeds are good is not accurate. Similarly priced laptops get 3000mb read speeds and 1500mb write speeds with last gen NVme SSDs. This speeds are actually terrible. Yes, it is a small drive of just 128Gb and that might be the reason for it, but still, it should not be said that those are good speeds at all.
Aside from that, great review. I always recommend including the 0 to 50% charge time in the review, since it tells the audience if they can survive a particularly long work day with just plugging the laptop for a few minutes. In my opinion, this has just two advantages over the x360, the fingerprint sensor and the precision touchpad. That's it. I consider the x360 a better overall package but well, everyone is able to have their own opinion.
Another thing Andrew, it is important for you to tell people that they shouldn't spend over a thousand dollars on a dual core machine now that 8th Gen quad core chips are out. I know that is not the only thing that matters when choosing a laptop, but if you remind people that there are already same category laptops that are 40% faster just for having the new chip, they will appreciate it. A laptop is a big investment, and I cannot imagine buying a brand new one just to have a 40% faster version released one month later.
Thanks as always for the great content. I am looking forward for those new Asus Flips and Zenbooks reviews (specially the Flip S).
Don't Thinking wrong about mei.....
wifi should be use
Does the screen has palm rejection feature?
I made this video 5 years ago. Don’t remember
