Title: HP Elitebook x360 1040 G5 gets the x360 treatment
Post by: Redaktion on October 23, 2018, 22:00:47
HP says it will be the smallest and lightest 14-inch business convertible with a quad-core processor and also the world's first with gigabit 4G LTE for its class. The convertible is set to directly supplant the Elitebook Folio 1040 G4 with many new features inspired by the successful 13.3-inch EliteBook x360 1030 G1.

What does this mean for the 1040 G4? Is this a replacement or does it remain as a non-x360 option?

Looks like a great laptop btw :) Looking forward to the review!

Also looking forward to the review - especially the benchmarks for the i7! Is there any estimate when you will get a chance to test it?

Looks like another great 2-in-1. Also Eagerly waiting for a review with the 700 nits FHD display(anti-glare glossy, Sure View) SKU.

Shame it starts at $1,800 USD, for i5, 8GB, 128GB SATA.
Maxed out model with i7, 32GB, 2TB NVMe, WWAN and premium warranty costs a whopping $4,500 before tax. Supposedly "You saved $1,700" from what was originally a $6,200 laptop. All that and not even Intel vPro, I mean really.

Typical HP business laptop, more expensive than already too expensive Lenovo Thinkpads yet still not as expensive as a Dell.

*EDIT: anti-glare matte. All screen options are either glossy or matte it seems. Nice to see matte touchscreens with Wacom pen support.
