Today we received the HP EliteBook 1040 G3 for review and this Enterprise ready laptop has all the bells and whistles you expect for a work device.

  • Weight - 3.15 lbs

  • Intel Core i7 vPro

  • 16GB DDR4 RAM

  • 256GB PCIe SSD

  • Intel HD Graphics 520

  • HP Premium Keyboard (1.5MM of movement)

  • Clickpad has 30% larger sensors to detect interactions

  • Bang & Olufsen speakers

  • Dual array microphone

  • HP Sure Start with Dynamic Protection to prevent BIOS corruption

  • Hardended fingerprint reader that works with Windows Hello on Windows 10

  • HP Sure View integrated privacy filter/screen built into the display

I will be setting this machine up and using it on a daily basis to asses its performance then, in a couple of weeks, I will share my impressions along with more details about the feature set and other options available for this business focused device.

 

About the Author

Richard Hay

Senior Content Producer, IT Pro Today (Informa Tech)

I served for 29 plus years in the U.S. Navy and retired as a Master Chief Petty Officer in November 2011. My work background in the Navy was telecommunications related so my hobby of computers fit well with what I did for the Navy. I consider myself a tech geek and enjoy most things in that arena.

My first website – AnotherWin95.com – came online in 1995. Back then I used GeoCities Web Hosting for it and WindowsObserver.com is the result of the work I have done on that site since 1995.

In January 2010 my community contributions were recognized by Microsoft when I received my first Most Valuable Professional (MVP) Award for the Windows Operating System. Since then I have been renewed as a Microsoft MVP each subsequent year since that initial award. I am also a member of the inaugural group of Windows Insider MVPs which began in 2016.

I previously hosted the Observed Tech PODCAST for 10 years and 317 episodes and now host a new podcast called Faith, Tech, and Space. 

I began contributing to Penton Technology websites in January 2015 and in April 2017 I was hired as the Senior Content Producer for Penton Technology which is now Informa Tech. In that role, I contribute to ITPro Today and cover operating systems, enterprise technology, and productivity.
