HP EliteBook 840 G5, First Take: A solid business-class laptop
Source: Zdnet.com English

The EliteBook 840 weighs 1.61kg with a touch screen or 1.48kg without, so it's no lightweight. It's also on the bulky side at 32.6cm wide by 23.4cm deep by 1.79cm thick. Still, this is a well made laptop with some high-end components, including above-average speakers.

HP EliteBook 840 G5 review – exquisite build quality at exquisite price
Source: Laptop Media English

In the end, we can say that this is one of the best business laptops for general purpose. It is extremely fast in day-to-day tasks as well as in programs like Adobe Photoshop. In addition to that, the build quality is exquisite and you have the opportunity to upgrade like crazy. However, there is the competition of Acer Swift 5 and one of the best business devices – Dell XPS 13 9370, both having distinctive features that set them apart from the rest. So if you are at a crossroads – think smart!
