Reviews for the HP ZBook Firefly 14 G11
The model can be configured with 14th gen CPUs starting from the Core Ultra 5 125U up to even the Core Ultra 7 165H. However, it's clear that the form factor was designed more for U-series CPUs in mind rather than the more demanding H-series.

HP's ZBook Firefly 14 G11 brings impeccable quality and enterprise features to the table. Its DreamColor screen is ideal for color-sensitive work, and we have no complaints about its practicality as a business PC in the office or on the road. However, the Dell Precision 5490 offers vastly superior graphics performance and matches this HP in most other areas, thereby keeping its Editors' Choice award among compact mobile workstations.

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.
