Notes and footnotes
  1. [1] Compared to HP ZBook G1a.
  2. [2] Multicore is designed to improve performance of certain software products. Not all customers or software applications will necessarily benefit from use of this technology. Performance and clock frequency will vary depending on application workload and your hardware and software configurations. Intel’s numbering, branding, and/or naming is not a measurement of higher performance. Optional feature that must be configured at purchase. Features and software that require a NPU may require software purchase, subscription or enablement by a software or platform provider, and third-party software may have specific configuration or compatibility requirements. Performance varies by use, configuration, and other factors.
  3. [3] Graphics and memory are optional features that must be configured at purchase.
  4. [4] Battery life will vary depending on the product model, configuration, loaded applications, features, use, wireless functionality, and power management settings. The maximum capacity of the battery will naturally decrease with time and usage. See MobileMark30 battery benchmark.
  5. [5] Wireless access point and Internet service required and sold separately. Availability of public wireless access points limited. Wi-Fi 7 (802.11BE) functionality requires compatible Windows 11 OS, compatible processor, and separately purchased Wi-Fi 7 router to support backwards compatibility with prior 802.11 specs. Available in countries where Wi-Fi 7 is supported. The specification for 802.11BE is a draft specification and is not final. If the final specification differs from the draft specification, it may affect the ability of the device to communicate with other 802.11BE devices. Wi-Fi® supporting gigabit data rate is achievable with Wi-Fi 7 (802.11BE) when transferring files between two devices connected to the same router. Requires a wireless router, sold separately, that supports 160MHz channels. Available on select configurations.
  6. [6] Applies to HP PCs, Workstations and Displays manufactured after January 2019. Based on most Gold and Silver EPEAT® registrations by meeting all required criteria and achieving 50-74% of the optional points for EPEAT® Silver and 75-100% of the optional points for EPEAT® Gold according to IEEE 1680.1-2018 EPEAT®. EPEAT tier levels may vary by country. See www.epeat.net for registration status and tier levels by country.
  7. [3] Processor speed denotes maximum performance mode; processors will run at lower speeds in battery optimization mode.
  8. [7] Recycled plastic is expressed as a percentage of the total weight plastic. Post-consumer recycled is based on the definition set in the EPEAT standard for computers, IEEE 1680.1-2018 standard.

  10. [6] Features and software that require a NPU may require software purchase, subscription or enablement by a software or platform provider, and third party software may have specific configuration or compatibility requirements. Potential NPU inferencing performance varies by use, configuration, and other factors.
  11. [7] Availability may vary by country.
  12. [8] Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we recommend HP branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system will perform at the lower memory speed.
