HP has started selling a new 13-inch convertible laptop globally. Featuring Intel Panther Lake processors, the EliteBook 8 Flip G2i 13 replaces the Arrow Lake-based model we reviewed in 2025 with up to 64 GB of RAM, a 5G modem and optional 800-nit displays.

HP is now selling a new 13-inch convertible laptop globally. For context, the company announced the EliteBook 8 G2 series over two months ago in a variety of sizes, form factors and processor variants. Incidentally, the EliteBook 8 G2i 13 is already available to purchase in multiple countries.

By contrast, HP's new 13-inch convertible replaces the EliteBook 8 Flip G1i 13, which we reviewed in September 2025 featuring Intel's Arrow Lake-U platform (curr. $3,144 on Amazon). According to our benchmarks, this SKU outperforms the EliteBook 8 Flip G2i 13's entry-level model. While the Core Ultra 5 322 only contains 6 cores, HP also offers the convertible with other Panther Lake processors.

For instance, the EliteBook 8 Flip G2i 13 starts with the Core Ultra 7 355 in Germany and the UK, which easily outperforms the older Core Ultra 7 265U. Also, the UK has received Core Ultra 7 356H SKUs with 16 CPU cores and up to 64 GB of RAM. The moderately more powerful Core Ultra 7 366H is available in the US too, as are 24 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB RAM combinations.

Moreover, HP sells the EliteBook 8 Flip G2i 13 with optional NFC and 5G connectivity (MediaTek T700), up to 2 TB of PCIe Gen 5 storage and a 62 Wh battery across all SKUs. Currently, the convertible can be purchased with a choice of five displays, too. Although all are 1200p and 60 Hz IPS panels, some peak at 800 nits with 100% sRGB colour space coverage. Pricing starts at $3,128 in the US, €2,539 in the Eurozone and £1,520 in the UK with varying specifications.
