Reviews for the HP ZBook 15 G2
Performance alternative. HP reworked its workstation series and now offers some new features. We decided to equip the HP ZBook 15 G2 with the AMD FirePro M5100 and the high-resolution QHD+ display. We tested how well the two components suit the established working device.

The HP succeeds in several key departments: fantastic application power and solid graphical ability mean it’ll scythe through virtually all work applications, it’s got plenty of ports, and good interior access. The keyboard and trackpad, too, are decent. The screen is bettered elsewhere, though, and Apple’s Macbook has a better keyboard and superior battery life. Rivals are also cheaper in most instances.

The ZBook 15 arrives with a specification that’s got the power to handle almost all work applications, and that’s paired with impressive versatility – inside and out. The high-resolution screen is a mixed bag, though, and other systems are more ergonomically sound. The price for this configuration is is too high too; unless you plan to use every feature, other machines offer similar power at lower prices.

The HP ZBook 15 G2 is the most recommendable 15.6” mobile workstation we’ve tested. Its excellent performance in professional applications is well matched with its outstanding build quality, good keyboard and touchpad and arsenal of ports including true docking station support. The QHD+ IPS display on our review unit has very good image quality and plenty of working space thanks to its high 3200×1800 resolution.

Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
