Reviews for the HP Elitebook x360 1040 G5

80% HP EliteBook x360 1040 G5 review: Versatile but lacking distinction
Source: It Pro Archive.org version
The EliteBook does just enough to warrant consideration for your business in our opinion. While there are drawbacks to the machine, there are other selling points it has in its favour, such as being more powerful than a similarly spec'd-out Surface Book 2. The EliteBook will also be an attractive option to those who frequently work outdoors as the anti-glare display coating isn't common but is definitely a game changer as far as nature-bound computing experiences go.

80% HP EliteBook x360 1040 G5 2-in-1 convertible business laptop review
Source: Techradar Archive.org version
The EliteBook x360 1040 G5 is the apex predator of the business laptop world, a magnificent beast with a big punch, but also a bigger price tag (compared to its rivals). There’s a lot to like about it but the competition is ferocious out there, both in terms of features and sales pitches. Shop wisely.

HP EliteBook x360 1040 G5 review: It's nearly perfect
Source: Neowin Archive.org version
The HP EliteBook x360 1040 G5 is one of the best PCs that I've used in a long time. It's really just phenomenal. I refuse to call any laptop perfect, because in a world of billions of devices, there's always something better out there. But this is one of those that I really want to call perfect.

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.
