A high-end business 2-in-1 for high earners: HP EliteBook X Flip G1i review
An additional 500 to 1,000 dollars for what?
HP's changed naming scheme is allowing it to charge a hefty premium for its new 14-inch business 2-in-1. We take a look at what the EliteBook X Flip G1i offers compared to its predecessor, the Elite x360 1040 G11 2-in-1.Christian Hintze, 👁 Christian Hintze (translated by Andrew Dickson) Published 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 ...
Verdict - A very good but expensive business 2-in-1
The HP EliteBook X Flip G1i is a very good business 2-in-1. It's sturdy, relatively compact and portable, has excellent input devices, is very quiet in every situation, and boasts good battery life. For business professionals, it comes with various security features, such as a dedicated security chip, a security suite, and eye-tracking to protect the user from unwanted onlookers.
The most significant criticism is probably the price. Around $2,600 is quite hefty, especially since its predecessor was almost $1,000 cheaper! Aside from the CPU, little has changed; the design remains the same, and the device's Wi-Fi 7, 5G, 5-MP webcam, and good battery life can also be found in the EliteBook X360. The CPU performance was even higher, but it was also louder.

Our HP EliteBook X Flip G1i 14 marks the 2-in-1 version of the new G1i and follows in the footsteps of the HP Elite x360 1040 G11 2-in-1.This is the name given to HP's high-end business 2-in-1 series, and the 360-degree laptop is aimed at companies, business customers, content creators, and others.
Specifications
Case & features - Elite magnesium alloy
The bright, silver-colored case looks similar to its predecessor and is made of a magnesium alloy that is comparable to the Dell Pro 13 Premium. In our torsion test, the base and even the display proved to be relatively stable. However, the 360-degree hinges could be a bit tighter.
Only four screws keep the bottom panel in place. Inside, there's access to the battery, fans, replaceable Wi-Fi module, and SSD. The RAM isn't expandable.
While a LAN slot and an SD card reader are missing, three USB-C ports are on board, two of which are USB 4/Thunderbolt 4.
The 5 MP webcam has a physical shutter that supports 4.7 MP images and 1440p videos, and the remaining pixels are used for auto-frame, etc.
Sustainability
The covers contain 75 percent recycled metal. The packaging is 100 percent sustainably sourced and recyclable.
Input devices - Quiet typing with the EliteBook
Given the small form factor, the very quiet keys appear nice and large (1.7 mm2) and are slightly spaced apart. All of the arrow and F keys are halved in height.
The key travel is short to medium, but the pressure point is distinct, providing good feedback.
The touchpad measures approximately 12 x 8.5 cm and is smooth to the touch when dry but less so when wet. The pleasantly quiet keys feel soft but still provide crisp feedback.
Inputs on the touch display are translated efficiently and reliably, and on top of that, you can also use the included stylus.
Display - The Flip's touchscreen includes Sure(No)View
All four display options feature a 60 Hz, 1200p panel with touch functionality. The differences lie in the brightness (400 vs. 800 nits) and the overlay.
Our review model is covered with an HP Sure View 5 privacy screen, which is designed to make it harder for external viewers to see the screen content. The filter is rather annoying, but fortunately, HP now offers options without Sure View.
The average brightness is 541 nits due to the special overlay. However, at just 78 percent, the illumination is not particularly even. Despite this, the pleasantly low black level ensures good contrast.
PWM is not present, sRGB is almost completely covered, and AdobeRGB and Display P3 are still around 75 percent.

Out of the box, the DeltaE values are suboptimal, but our calibration significantly reduced the deviations. However, the DeltaE value in the ColorChecker remained less than ideal.

Thanks to the Sure View filter, it's even more important to ensure the correct opening angle when outdoors. Otherwise, you'll quickly discover it's hard to see anything.
Performance - Powerful GPU, weaker CPU
Processor options range from the Core Ultra 5 226V up to the Ultra 7 268V and just about everything in between. Our Ultra 7 258V represents the third-best configuration, adding 32 GB of integrated RAM and a 1 TB SSD.
With its strong focus on security, the EliteBook X Flip G1i is primarily aimed at businesses and business professionals.
Test conditions
MyHP serves as a control center, offering two performance profiles and various other settings. HP has also created its own energy profile in Windows. We left everything on the default settings for our benchmarks.
Processor
The Ultra 7 258V's 4 E and 4 P cores are clocked between 2,2 GHz and 4,8 GHz. The iGPU Arc 140V, an NPU with 47 TOPS and 32 GB of RAM, is also integrated.
In the Cinebench R15 loop, performance dropped by around 10 percent immediately after the first run but remained constant thereafter.
By comparison, the CPU performance is worse than you would expect from an Ultra 7 258V. While the lag in single-core tasks is negligible, in multi-core applications, it is 6 to 11 percent! Across all tests, for example, the equally equipped Lenovo Yoga 9 14 enjoys an advantage of around 12 percent.
In battery mode, less than 7 percent of CPU performance is lost.

Mass storage
The 1 TB M2 2280 SSD's continuous performance was very high and consistent when reading. Unfortunately, across all tests, performance fell somewhat short of the competition. The results were ambiguous: DiskSpd reported weak read but good write speeds for the storage device, while the opposite seemed to be true for AS SSD.

Graphics card
The iGPU Intel Arc Graphics 140V iGPU is responsible for 3D applications. It took the lead in the synthetic benchmarks, performing 5 percent better than an average Arc 140V. We didn't observe any drop in GPU performance on battery power (Fire Strike).
When gaming, performance was also strong, only lagging slightly behind in CPU-intensive titles such as X-Plane 11.11. Current titles can often be played smoothly at low to medium resolutions and details.

Temperature
Under stress, it becomes apparent that the two fans are too close to each other on the right-hand side, while the left-hand side is warmer. This is an area where the Dell Pro 13 Premium sets a positive example in terms of uniform cooling. On the bottom, we measured a hot spot of up to 42°C, while all other areas remained at 35°C. Some competitors run hotter.
(+) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 36 °C / 97 F, compared to the average of 35.4 °C / 96 F, ranging from 19.6 to 60 °C for the class Convertible.
(±) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 41 °C / 106 F, compared to the average of 36.8 °C / 98 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 25.8 °C / 78 F, compared to the device average of 30.3 °C / 87 F.
(+) 3: The average temperature for the upper side is 30.7 °C / 87 F, compared to the average of 30.3 °C / 87 F for the class Convertible.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 28 °C / 82.4 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(±) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28 °C / 82.4 F (0 °C / 0 F).

Power consumption
Overall, idle consumption could be lower at maximum brightness. Under load, however, the EliteBook X proves to be quite economical.
We only measured brief peaks of up to 70 W, but even in the stress test, the average consumption was only 46 W, and with Cyberpunk 2077, it reached 42 W. The very small 65 W USB-C power adapter is well-sized.

Battery life
At reduced brightness, the EliteBook X Flip lasted over 18 hours in our Wi-Fi test and 20.5 hours in the video test. At full brightness, the former dropped significantly to 8.5 hours. The 68 Wh battery is also larger than that of its competition. Only the Dell Pro 13 Premium enjoys better stamina.

Notebookcheck overall rating
The HP EliteBook X Flip G1i has almost everything you could desire in a small business 2-in-1: Very quiet operation, long battery life, great input devices, optional 5G, fast Wi-Fi 7, and numerous security features are just a few of the many positive aspects. This is offset, especially, by the hefty price tag!
