Good for business. HP delivers a stable business notebook for the entry-level segment with the ProBook 6570b. For around 1050 Euros the package includes an Intel dual-core processor from the Ivy Bridge generation, a dedicated AMD graphics card and a matte 15.6 inch display with an HD+ resolution.

Hi there, I would like to disable AMD graphics and switch into Intel 4000hd, is there any possible way to fix it? Thanks, John
i've just got one.....and I have to call service, sth is wrong. The fan is at the highest speed all the time. I would expect higher quality from HP, although everywhere is printed: made in china, so I shouldn't don't expect too much :(
Hi, there is one important mistake in your review! "the ProBook 6570b can also be fitted with and HDD and an mSATA connected SSD simultaneously" Sorry but ProBook does't support mSATA HDD this slot is only for WWAN - UMTS module
My power consumption measurements (AC power draw battery removed):
Idle 6.5-7 watts = screen off
8.5 watts = screen brightness minimum
11.50 watts = screen maximum brightness
HD4000 (non-amd graphics) and 7200rpm hard-drive.
Impressive I'd say, certainly not too high. Avoid the AMD HD -version as there's really no point to it.
Also, this is one of the only models (Intel HD) that do not have pulse modulation in the led screen. Thus making it a PWM free, flicker free laptop. Both full brightness as well as reduced brightness.
Yes, very important. mSATA is NOT supported by this model. Tested myself.
Thank you for the Windows 7 Pro serial. :D
can i fitt a SSD extra memory on the slot of the ExpressCard54 ?????
Please adviase
Hello,
Based on your review, i just bought a second hand 6570b notebook. When i did the full reinstallation (ESC > BIOS SETUP and then reinstall, normally this should have gone over F11 button after restarting), everything went fine but it finished with Windows 11 Home version for some reason (updated?).
Works great, really great and battery seems still to be like new (in hardware setup, i could see previous user almost never took the portable with him without power inlet), so will be great. Am isntallating now vDos for using my 25 year old accountancy programma, but only difference is that it seems to be an i3 instead of an intel i5 processor. But will expand it with another SSD soon.
Thanks a thousand times, this review was worth it. PS: Price i paid secondhand was 85 EUR only, because the owner had deceased and her brother did not know the password, but i did not need it as i could do a full reinstall without keeping any data.
