HP ProBook 640 G5 i5-8365U 8 GB 128 GB + 1 TB SSD 14" FHD laptop

Business-ready ultrabook

The HP ProBook 640 G5 is a 14-inch Windows 11 Pro laptop built around an 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8365U processor with four cores. It ships with 8 GB of DDR4 memory and a dual-drive layout: a 128 GB M.2 unit plus a 1 TB SSD. The 1920 x 1080 IPS panel uses LED backlighting and has no touch layer. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the display output. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 4.1, HDMI, one USB 3.1 Type-C Gen 1 port with Power Delivery and DisplayPort, plus three USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports.

Suits mobile professionals needing legacy ports

This configuration fits users who want a lightweight silver chassis with a full set of Type-A ports, HDMI and a single Type-C connection for docks or external monitors. The 8 GB of soldered memory cannot be upgraded, so buyers who need more than 32 GB of RAM or who want a user-replaceable SO-DIMM should look elsewhere. The non-touch FHD screen rules out pen or finger input. There is no discrete GPU, so workloads that require dedicated graphics acceleration are not a match.

Storage headroom for documents and media

The combined 128 GB plus 1 TB of solid-state storage gives ample room for the operating system, business applications and large media libraries. Everyday multitasking with Office suites, browser tabs and video calls runs comfortably within the 8 GB DDR4 limit. Heavy virtualisation, large database work or modern gaming will exceed the integrated graphics and memory ceiling. The single Type-C Gen 1 port caps external display bandwidth at 5 Gbps, limiting high-refresh or multi-monitor setups.
