HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 review

An elegant solution for business computing on the move

Excellent value for money ; Superb performance and battery life ; Attractive optional features

SATA SSD ; Proprietary power port

The EliteBook x360 is an excellent workhorse 2-in-1 which is strong in a lot of respects. There are a couple of pain points, but none bad enough to distract us from the sheer quality of this HP laptop.

HP EliteBook x360 review

A review of the EliteBook x360 1030 G2, a business laptop that oozes style but has the security features that businesses need. It doesn't come cheap, though.

Parts of the HP EliteBook X360 1030 G2 can’t match those of consumer laptops around the price. The screen isn't super-bright and you’ll find higher-resolution panels too.

HP EliteBook x360 review

One of the dirty secrets of the laptop biz is that PC makers often put more time, care and attention into professional laptops for business users than into their sleeker, more eye-catching consumer laptops. Behind those plain grey or silver exteriors,...

Solid construction and powerful components inside being a relatively slim and light body. Includes useful ports missing from many similar systems. Fantastic battery life.

Audio is tuned for conference calls, but poor for music and movies. The remote management app was hard to set up and lost its connection. It's a professional laptop, so you're paying pro-level prices.

HP's EliteBook x360 is a pricey professional hybrid that has crossover appeal for anyone looking for useful features and a great design.

HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2

Despite its flashy exterior, the HP EliteBook x360 2-in-1 laptop is all business inside, with an Intel Core i7 processor, 14-hour battery life, and a comprehensive set of security features.

Long battery life. Intel Core i7 power. Compact, convertible form factor. Premium construction and design. USB-C with Thunderbolt 3 port and USB 3.0 ports. Windows Hello works with fingerprint reader and IR webcam.

512GB SSD and 16GB of RAM make it somewhat pricey. Lacks on-board storage for Active Pen.

The HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 offers a flashy exterior that distinguishes it from its more sedate-looking competitors, like the Dell XPS 13 2-in-1 and the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga. Its full feature set also sets it apart. True, it's almost $500 more...

HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 (Core i5, Full HD) Convertible Review

A true favorite! HP's EliteBook series stands for high-end business laptops. In this review, you will find out if HP can follow up on their promises with this EliteBook x360 1030 G2.

fancy design ; flawless workmanship ; very good input devices ; good system performance ; no CPU throttling ; high flexibility due to 360-degree hinges ; low energy consumption ; very long battery life ; pleasantly quiet (often completely silent) ;...

low display brightness ; no NVMe SSD ; 256 GB SSD ; hardly any possibilities for expansion

The HP EliteBook x360 1030 G2 is more than a classic business notebook. Due to the 360-degree hinges, this device is extremely flexible and the HP Active Pen enables creativity to run free. The many multimedia functions are another great feature of our...

Elitebook x360 1030 G2 review: A business laptop with the lot

It has been a long time since an HP business device made me sit up and take notice, but the latest Elitebook x360 has changed that.

Wide range of usage modes ; Variety of input choices ; Top design and build quality ; Full size ports

Resolution on standard display could be higher ; Not the lightest laptop ; USB-C power is not a universal wonderland yet

Consumer review (hp.com)

Desktop replacement & travel computer.

So far this has been a great computer. I use it both as a desktop replacement with the HP Elite 90W Thunderbolt 3 Dock and as a travel computer. It is fast and powerful. So far have traveled with it once and had no problems on the road.

Consumer review (hp.com)

No support for DisplayPort Monitors

If you are coming over from an 8470w, and an external HP DisplayPort monitor, you will be disappointed. The HDMI port on either the Envy X360 or the EliteBook x360 will not drive the DisplayPort monitor. I tried many, many combinations of adapters and...
