HP ProBook 640 G4 14" FHD i5-8350U 8GB 128GB SSD 1TB HDD laptop

Purpose-built work laptop

The HP ProBook 640 G4 is a 14-inch Full HD ultrabook running Windows 11 Pro on an 8th-generation Intel Core i5-8350U quad-core processor with integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620. It combines 8 GB of DDR4 memory with a dual-drive layout of 128 GB M.2 SSD and 1 TB HDD. 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. The silver aluminium chassis houses a non-touch IPS panel with LED backlight at 1920 x 1080 resolution.

Fits mobile professionals; not for heavy creators

Business users who need reliable manageability features such as Intel vPro, HP Sure Start BIOS protection and HP Sure Recover will find this configuration well suited to daily office tasks, video calls and light multitasking. The integrated graphics and 8 GB RAM limit make it unsuitable for buyers who need discrete GPU performance for 3D rendering, modern gaming or intensive video editing. Users requiring a touchscreen or more than 8 GB of memory should look at other configurations.

Dual-drive storage decides fit

The defining specification is the combined 128 GB M.2 SSD and 1 TB HDD arrangement, which gives fast boot and application load times alongside high-capacity local file storage in a single chassis. If your workflow depends on a larger solid-state volume or a single drive format, this specific storage layout will not match those requirements.
