Reviews for the HP EliteBook x360 1030 G3 45X96UT
The EliteBook x360 1030 G3 Core i7 SKU is a perfect example of why a pricier configuration may not always be the fastest when compared to a less expensive SKU. The Core i7 CPU on our HP is measurably slower than the same model with the more affordable Core i5.

Said upgrades enhance a laptop that already boasts an excellent keyboard and trackpad, decent battery life, top-notch build quality and a comprehensive list of security options. A heady mix, but we still fall short of absolute perfection as fan noise continues to be a bugbear, the top-end Core i7 chip will throttle when pushed, and though the display is brighter, it lacks the wow factor on offer from some of the competition.

All told, the new 3rd generation HP EliteBook x360 1030 is HotHardware Recommended.

Business convertibles don't come any better than the HP EliteBook x360 1030 G3, an executive 2-in-1 that combines ample power with a sunny 13.3-inch screen and a snappy keyboard in a petite 2.76-pound package.

The EliteBook x360 1030 G3 is an all-around great PC though. It has B&O speakers that fire right at you, a beautiful aluminum body, the ports you need, and it's a convertible. That means that you can use it as a laptop, a tablet, or anything in-between.

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.
