Reviews for the HP ProBook 440 G3
Entry into the business world. With its new ProBook 440 G3, HP shows what an entry-level device of the business class really needs. Intel's new Skylake generation may not be missing here. Unfortunately, the 14-inch model also inherited problems of the ProBook 430 G3.

The HP ProBook 440 G3 (starting at $579; tested at $924.45) offers a durable design, adequate performance, a comfortable keyboard, decent sound and security tools made for IT managers. Unfortunately, its subpar battery life (at least from the standard battery), slow-to-act touchpad and dull display hamper its value.

Hands down, one of the best budget laptops you can buy right now. The laptop has it all – impeccable and solid build quality and great choice of materials, near perfect keyboard and touchpad experience, especially when you consider the price point, and most of all, the notebook has one hell of a long-lasting battery. The 44Wh unit combined with the Core i5-6200U CPU and the energy-efficient 14-inch TN panel will probably get you through the day with a single charge. Well, it mostly depends on your usage, but the results from our battery tests are impressive, nonetheless. Oh, and we forgot to mention that the machine is quite thin (21.1 mm) and weighs just 1.67 kg with the option of an additional M.2 SSD stick alongside the 2.5-inch HDD. This is absolutely a bang for the buck device.

Intel HD Graphics 520: Integrated GPU (GT2) with 24 EUs found on some Skylake CPU models (15 W ULV series).
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

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.

70.55%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
