EliteBook 8 instead of EliteBook 800: HP's most important business laptop series launches in 2025 with a new name. HP also uses this opportunity to introduce a new design. Additionally, there are many new processor options, including Strix Point and Lunar Lake.

Still far far less repairable than they used to be. first make stuff a lot worse, than slightly improve it and claim you made innovation. Sigh.

I gotta admit that this is way better than before. Like, I have changed my laptop keyboard once in a decade, and that was because the OG one didnt include backlight lighting, not because it was broken.

The issue with laptops is more about replacement parts like batteries rather than repairability itself.
