Reviews for the HP ProBook 450 G4 Y8B60EA
Unworthy screen. HP is one of the first manufacturers to use Kaby Lake in its 400 ProBook lineup in the business sector. Why the 15.6-inch model is not convincing despite its many positive traits can be read in our in-depth report.

Archive.org versionThe new HP ProBook 450 G4 delivered even more than we expected. It brings a slightly altered design, which isn’t prone to smudges and fingerprints anymore, but retains the good choice of materials and feel. Maybe it’s not a big improvement compared to the previous version but it’s definitely not a step back either. If anything, there’s a small decline in weight and size over the ProBook 450 G3. Moreover, the ProBook 450 G4 introduces the already excellent keyboard from the last generation while revamping the touchpad, which offered nothing less than good experience. It’s nowhere near the Pavilion 15’s stiff and almost unusable touchpad.

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.
