HP EliteBook 8 G1i, 14" Laptop, Intel Core Ultra 7, 16GB/512GB, Windows 11 Pro
The HP EliteBook 8 G1i is a 14‑inch premium business laptop built for modern teams. Powered by the Intel Core Ultra 7 processor, it combines twelve cores—eight efficient and two performance cores—with a turbo boost up to 5.2 GHz. Paired with 16 GB of DDR5‑5600 memory, multitasking feels effortless, whether you’re running complex data models or multiple virtual desktops.
Its 400 cd/m² IPS anti‑glare screen covers 100 % of the sRGB gamut, giving you crisp, color‑accurate visuals even in bright environments. A fast 512 GB NVMe SSD ensures quick boot times and rapid file access, while the 62 Wh lithium‑polymer battery keeps you productive for a full workday.
Connectivity options are abundant: two Thunderbolt 4 ports, a USB‑C with DisplayPort Alt Mode, HDMI 2.1, a USB‑A port, and three USB Sleep‑and‑Charge ports let you power accessories even when the laptop is off. A combo headphone/mic jack rounds out the I/O suite.
Security is baked in with a fingerprint sensor, smart‑card reader, and an IR camera for Windows Hello facial recognition. HP’s AI Boost NPU, delivering up to 12 TOPS, accelerates AI workloads such as video enhancement or real‑time language translation directly on the device, keeping sensitive data on‑premise.

The laptop’s Wi‑Fi 7 module and Bluetooth 5.4 provide the fastest wireless connections, while Thunderbolt 4 ports support dual‑4K displays, fast external storage, and rapid charging through USB‑C Power Delivery. You stay connected, productive, and powered up wherever you go.
