Business ultraportable for daily workloads

The HP EliteBook 840 G3 is a 14.0 inch laptop built for professionals who need a reliable Windows 10 machine. It ships with an Intel Core i7-6500U dual-core processor running at 2.50 GHz with a 3.10 GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 8GB of DDR3 memory and a new 500GB SATA SSD, delivering responsive performance for office applications and web-based tasks.

Suited to mobile office users, not heavy creators

This configuration suits consultants, administrators and students who value a silver chassis, integrated webcam and Bluetooth connectivity on a 1366 x 768 HD panel. Buyers who need a touchscreen, a higher-resolution display or discrete graphics for design or engineering workloads should look at other models. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 520 handles standard video playback and multi-monitor desk setups without difficulty.

500GB SATA SSD capacity and interface

The single specification that decides fit is the 500GB 2.5 inch SATA solid-state drive. It provides fast boot times and ample space for documents and core applications on a widely compatible interface. If the workflow requires a larger single volume or a different drive form factor, this laptop will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

How much extra memory can the two DDR3 slots accept beyond the 8 GB installed?

The board has two memory slots and supports up to 32 GB of DDR3, so you can add another module or replace both to reach that limit.

Which component hits its ceiling first during a long compile or render on the Core i7-6500U?

The dual-core processor reaches its thermal ceiling before the 500 GB SSD or the 8 GB of memory become the bottleneck.

What happens to fan noise and surface heat when the EliteBook 840 G3 runs a full-day workload?

The Intel HD Graphics 520 and the 2.50 GHz base clock keep power draw modest, so the fan stays at low speed and the chassis remains warm rather than hot.
