Eight New Business Laptops Announced By HP

HP announced a great deal of new consumer products, including hybrids, tablets, laptops, and desktops. Now the company is addressing its business side with the unveiling of eight new systems. The company says its HP EliteBook 800 series is up to 40 percent thinner and 28 percent lighter than previous generations and designed for frequent travelers with an option for up to 33 hours of battery life and MIL-STD 810G certification for business-rugged reliability. There’s also the ProBook 600 series and the ProBook 400 series, both of which focus on style and durability.

The 600 and 400 series are a little more budget friendly than the 800. The 600 starts at $699 ( £436 ) while the 400 starts at $499 ( £308 ). The ProBook 600 line includes the 14- and 15-inch size categories and uses both AMD and Intel CPUs. The 640 G1 and 650 G1 are both Haswell-powered (14- and 15-inch models) while the 645 G1 and 655 G1 (again, 14- and 15-inch panels, respectively) run on AMD processors and Radeon HD 8000G graphics. The 400 series is a trio of laptops across the 14-inch, 15-inch and 17-inch categories with hybrid storage options, Intel CPUs, optional LTE, and an optional touchscreen.

The EliteBook 800 series is summed up out of three notebooks: the 820 G1, the 840 G1 and the 850 G1. The 820 features a 12-inch display, while the 840 and 850 pack 14-inch and 15.6-inch displays, respectively. The entire line comes with Intel’s fourth generation Haswell processors and optional LTE and SSD, HDD, or hybrid storage. The 14-inch model also comes with the option for a touchscreen panel. The line still sports the same magnesium alloy chassis with a new slate grey lid and the MIL-STD 810G certification that means any of the EliteBook 800 series laptops can withstand drops up to 30 inches. Pricing for the 800 series starts at $799 ( £494 ).

There is no word on a release date for the EliteBook 800 series, but the ProBook 400 series is currently available. The ProBook 600 series won’t be released until the end of November.
