80% HP EliteBook 840 G7 review: An elite experience
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
Overall, there’s little to dislike about the EliteBook 840 G7. It’s not as feather-light as some rivals, and its battery could last a little longer, but apart from these quibbles, the device makes for a fantastic business companion. In fact, we would consider buying it ourselves, if it wasn’t for the hefty price tag. Nevertheless, you get what you pay for, and what you get here is a truly Elite experience.

There's a lot for IT departments and business execs alike to admire about the latest EliteBook 840. Excellent battery life, a stylish, compact exterior and a powerful Core i7 are among its many strengths. There are plenty of wireless and physical connection options, too, and the comfortable keyboard and touchpad should help you get through a long day at the office or working from home.

89% HP EliteBook 840 G7 review: A configurable thin laptop suitable for working from anywhere
Source: Techaeris Archive.org version
The HP EliteBook 840 G7 is a slim, light, decent performing laptop that is easily configurable for your business needs. It excels at business-oriented tasks, although it does tend to slow down once in a while when using more GPU-intensive apps like Photoshop or Lightroom.

80% HP EliteBook 830 and EliteBook 840 G7 review
Source: Laptop Mag Archive.org version
Rarely do I review a laptop with as few shortcomings as the EliteBook 830 G7 and EliteBook 840 G7, and yet, I'm not entirely sold. Yes, these systems nail the basics, but they fail to stand out in any way. While they offer a sleek design, a good 1080p display, fast performance and decent battery life, the EliteBook 830 and 840 G7 don't do anything to separate themselves from the competition.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
