Got this PC 3 months ago after checking out this video and I must say it works well for me. Thanks for the detailed review.
That matte touch screen is really great and unique feature
Great Review As Always
I've had this on order for over a month, and due to the delays from Intel, I nearly cancelled my order - but your video convinced me I made a good choice and should stick with it!

Thank you fot review! I've biught the same but G6. Very nice device!
very good, clear concise explanation
Excellent wallpapers as usual
Great review. Please review also Elitebook 1040 G6.
The reason I love your reviews is that other reviewers make such a big deal of nitpicks.

The way of speaking and explaining about product is very good. I really like it but still there are less subscriber. Hope you get alot of them in future.

For that they would need Microsoft to include consumers in their development and production scope. Windows Central is still a consumer-facing portal, and Microsoft is letting consumers henceforth Windows Central behind. I am disappointed as well, but I expect less and less subscribers because of this. :(

Tnx for preview. What is this 1040 g6 with new mac ait/ pro comparision?
Hi Daniel. I would like to ask a question. Everyone is making a huge fuss about the display and couldn't get my hands on any of these in Taipei. I am thinking of going with the G6 and there is only a matte option. Can i know whether, based on your tests that display is ok for extended work sessions? I do research, browsing and writing articles for long hours. The sole alternative i see is the Dell 4200 2 in 1 as my X1 Yoga didn't live up to the expectations. Thanks in advance for any help.
As much as I love the 1040 X360 size and form factor, for the same price in Canada one can get the Zbook Studio X360 with an i7-8750H cpu, a Quadro P1000 gpu, a 4K display and better ports. The memory and storage sucks on the Zbook (HP has a very limited model selection in Canada and doesn't offer customization here), but you can easily swap those out for something better yourself. I think this makes the Zbook a better buy, so long as you don't mind the slightly larger size.
Any news about a 10th gen version? Comet lake or ice lake? Maybe even a 25watt ice lake version?
Damn that matte coating is nice
I need your help here. Between this notebook and the Surface Book 2, what would be your choice. I’m looking for a notebook for school and work.
Just bought mine now. Just wondering, is their a weird vignette look on the edges?
"You can drag the laptop by it" I am expecting at least 10 broken devices bought anew after this sentence. :D
can you tell me which is the other laptops that have matte displays?
Again, not bad, really gorgeous and featured, but not my style, nice video as always Dan
INSERT key is missing ... very frustrating in some apps :-(
HP has had the fan noise issue for sometime, passive cooling doesn't work 😣
i might buy this laptop
so if I use it for educational purposes,,like online classes and other stuff, will it be good for that,, please inform me asap
when will they upgrade this with the i5-8265u and i7-8565u?
Make sure to buy the one with the privacy screen to get a brighter screen. Also the 4k is nice but hard to find as most IT departments don't feel the need for 4K laptops.
Samsung Notebook 9 Pro Review Please!
thinking of getting the g6 or the hp spectre for my uni studies as a film student. The price for the g6 with 1tb and 16gb is £1,770 but I want to get something that lasts long, is convertible, has good battery life and can run DaVinci and this looks like the best laptop for it and I love its design, especially when compared to the spectre

How is it better than spectre??can u please guide as i am looking to buy spectre I3-acc0XX 7the Gen
I have the 840 G5 and after the last bios upgrade the fans are not as active. What needs to happen though is to have two fans in it so it can spin at lower speeds and still cool the laptop properly. I simply do not understand why HP is not standardizing the port selections. Mine has for instance a barrel power plug, why not two USB-c ports? the cooling has the outlet on the side, this can be a hindrance on a desk when there is paperwork in the way blocking the outlet. i do not understand the need for an x360 model with this kind of weight. There are much better devices in the enterprise to use for drawing and taking notes. Screen: well you touched on it, the softening of the screen is bothering my eyes. i have contacted HP and they are sending someone out to take a look with me at it. I also find the screen to be very "red" even after the calibration. maybe it is my device only, just wanted to get some feedback. The delete key is absurdly small and placed right on top of the Home key - useless!! and leading to many typos. Overall the speed of this Elitebook is satisfying to very good, keep in mind to have both channels filled with memory (2x8 or 2x16) to occupy all 4 lanes. Yes, a separate graphics card option should be added.
Please review the Hp Zbook studio x360 with Nvidia Quadro P2000

Wow! A Power button on the side. How nice. I wonder why no other models have this. This is all I'd need for some users, who use their laptops only with an external monitor. And what I would use it with if it had one like this.

It's completely different, since this is the professionnal brand of HP. It's more on the level of the Spectre, and even abode considering specs like the matte display, the keyboard, the 3 mics, the Sure View option, and the Security Features :)

Chris Churchill I would hate to hold a tablet with no bezels. I already unintentionally tap things on my iPad with super thin side bezels.
You lost me when you said "If you have the money!"
That top bezel is really ugly... Why are they still doing that! There are laptops with IR cameras with really slim bezels (Asus Zenbook UX333, 433, 533).
