HP EliteBook Ultra G1i 14 laptop review - HP's new business flagship is a great total package

Name: HP EliteBook Ultra G1i 14
Brand: HP

2.8K OLED at 120 Hz.

The EliteBook Ultra G1i 14 is HP's new business spearhead featuring a high-quality aluminum case. Its Lunar Lake processor delivers sufficient performance and its fans are barely audible during use, but what compromises do you have to make for its low weight of 1.2 kilograms?

Verdict - The EliteBook Ultra is better with Intel

The Intel version of the EliteBook Ultra is significantly better than the Snapdragon version and it features a range of significant upgrades. Its case is lighter, there are more ports, a better webcam, a haptic touchpad and a much better screen. There are also no compatibility issues whatsoever. The Lunar Lake processor offers good performance overall and the two fans always remain super quiet, which is noticeable during everyday use. Its battery runtimes are a little weaker, but we are happy to accept this compromise in view of its better display.

The new EliteBook lineup is a bit confusing due to the new naming system and compared to the more traditional EliteBook X models, you'll have to do without some key travel as well as some business features like a SmartCard reader or LTE/5G modules. The new Lenovo ThinkPad X9 14 is probably the biggest rival for the EliteBook Ultra and we are already excited to see how the X9 14 will fare in our test (coming soon).

Case & connectivity

As with the Snapdragon model, HP has also gone for a dark blue aluminum case for the EliteBook Ultra G1i, but its dimensions are slightly different, with the Intel model coming in at around 150 grams less. Visually, the device makes quite an impression—only the two new EliteBook and PolyStudio letterings at the rear don't harmonize particularly well with the design in our eyes. Despite its dark surfaces, fingerprints weren't a major problem during our test. The case's build quality and stability are both very good. The hinges (max. 180 degrees) are a little too tight to open the lid comfortably with one hand, but there is still a visible bounce when you adjust its angle. The lower case cover can be easily removed, but maintenance work is limited to the fans, the battery and the M.2 2280 SSD.

From a connectivity standpoint, this laptop has some advantages over the Snapdragon model because, in addition to another USB-C port (which is why the device can be charged on both sides), it features a Kensington lock. Nevertheless, its regular USB-A port with a small flap is still useful during everyday use. Further upgrades have been made to its webcam (with a cover and an IR sensor for facial recognition), which now uses a 9 MP sensor and is of better quality. As a Copilot+ laptop, Windows Studio effects are of course also supported. Its WLAN module (Intel BE201) now supports Wi-Fi 7 including Bluetooth 5.4 and its transfer rates in conjunction with our reference router from Asus were very good. However, a WWAN module is not on board.

HP has provided extensive information on the laptop's environmental certifications, the proportion of recycled materials used as well as its CO₂ footprint. Only paper and cardboard are used for its packaging.

Input devices - Large haptic touchpad

In general, the EliteBook Ultra uses HP's new keyboard design but in comparison to the EliteBook X models, there are no dedicated up/down keys—we can't quite comprehend this decision. The bigger compromise, however, concerns its key travel, which is very shallow. The keystrokes are still precise, but this comes at the cost of comfort and the keyboard is simply a little weaker overall than the EliteBook X models or even the comparable ThinkPads. Its backlighting can't be activated automatically.

The EliteBook Ultra G1i also comes with a large haptic touchpad (13.8 x 8.6 mm), which is nice and smooth and works very well overall. You can also use the device's capacitive touchscreen for inputs.

Display - 2.8K OLED at 120 Hz & VRR

HP has installed an OLED screen from Samsung with a 2.8K resolution (2,880 x 1,800 pixels, 16:10), a 120-Hz refresh rate, and VRR. Subjectively, its picture quality is great, with crisp colors and sharp-looking content—only on closer inspection can you see a slight grid effect (moiré effect) on bright surfaces. However, this isn't visible from a normal sitting distance and it isn't as pronounced as on some Lenovo laptops. We measured PWM flickering at 480 Hz and its response times are super fast, as expected. Neither brightness nor color temperature can be adjusted automatically, and its minimum brightness of 20 cd/m² is a little too high. Overall, however, it is still a big upgrade over the IPS panel in the Snapdragon model.

When it comes to brightness, the laptop's values of around 380 cd/m² in SDR mode and up to 600 cd/m² in HDR mode are in the usual range, but competitors such as the MateBook X Pro show that its brightness in particular could be significantly better. In our analysis using the professional CalMAN software, the panel performed well, especially for a business laptop. Even so, it is only suitable for image editing to a limited extent, as its color deviations are a bit too high and there is no sRGB profile, for example.

Display Response Times

ℹ

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.

↔ Response Time Black to White
0.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 0.39 ms rise
0.7 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 0.31 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 1 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (20.7 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
0.74 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 0.4 ms rise

The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.165 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 1 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (32.4 ms).

Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.

Screen flickering / PWM detected

480 Hz
Amplitude: 26 %

≤ 100 % brightness setting

The display backlight flickers at 480 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) Flickering detected at a brightness setting of 100 % and below. There should be no flickering or PWM above this brightness setting.

The frequency of 480 Hz is relatively high, so most users sensitive to PWM should not notice any flickering. However, there are reports that some users are still sensitive to PWM at 500 Hz and above, so be aware.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 8471 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 343500) Hz was measured.

Outdoors (bright day without direct sunlight)

Performance - Lunar Lake with 32 GB RAM

Testing conditions

HP doesn't offer its own energy profiles. We performed the following benchmarks and measurements using the Windows best performance mode.

Processor - Core Ultra 7 258V

HP has gone for the efficient Lunar Lake Core Ultra 7 258V processor, which consumes 37 watts for a short time and 18 watts permanently, which is why the laptop's multi-core performance doesn't remain stable (-35%). Its single-core performance is very good, but both the old Meteor Lake models and the latest chips from AMD and Qualcomm are faster when it comes to multi-core performance. In particular, the EliteBook X G1a 14 with the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 375 is in a completely different league. This performance is sufficient for normal office work, but if you need more multi-core performance, there are better alternatives on the market. Its performance stays constant in battery mode.

During everyday use, the EliteBook Ultra is a very responsive laptop and its results in the synthetic benchmarks were also impressive. We noted no stability problems during our test. The Wolf security software is also included, but it is very invasive and checks every app and file before use, for example.

Emissions & energy

Noise emissions

HP also uses two fans inside the model with the efficient Lunar Lake processor, which makes itself known during everyday use. The EliteBook Ultra G1i is a very quiet laptop overall and in lots of cases, it's even silent. Even with a full CPU load, it takes around 20 seconds before the fans even start up. The maximum fan noise emissions are also very low at a maximum of 31.5 dB(A) and, once again, noticeably quieter than the Snapdragon model. There were no other electronic noises coming from our test device during our test.

Temperature

The EliteBook's case stays very cool in idle mode and under low load, and there are no problems even under maximum load. Only a hotspot on the underside reached 44 °C during our test, but this was by no means critical. The keyboard remained significantly cooler during the stress test. As with pure CPU load, the SoC stabilized at around 18 watts after a few minutes during our stress test, and it stayed at this level.
