Reviews for the HP EliteBook 850 G4-Z2W91EA
Source: Laptop Media Archive.org version
All in all, the EliteBook 850 G4 is a good notebook but a bit overpriced. You should really consider getting the base configuration with Intel HD Graphics 620 instead of the AMD Radeon R7 M465 as our stress tests show exceptionally high thermals and poor heat dispersion on the surface of the notebook during heavy workload and you will save a few bucks along the way. It seems that the current GPU isn’t the best choice given the current cooling design but it’s still able to run some of the latest titles at decent frame rates. Moreover, make sure the TN panel will suit your needs or you can go for Lenovo’s ThinkPad T570, which is in the same ballpark as the EliteBook 850 G4 price-wise but sports a decent IPS panel. Another great alternative to consider is the Dell Latitude E5570.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
