HP EliteBook 860 G9 16-inch laptop

This HP EliteBook 860 G9 is a new 16-inch business laptop running Windows 11 Pro. It is built for professionals who need a reliable, portable machine for daily office tasks and video calls. The 1920 x 1200 non-touch display provides a tall aspect ratio for documents and web pages. Integrated graphics and a 10-core Intel Core i7-1265U processor handle standard productivity workloads.

10-core Intel Core i7-1265U with 4.8 GHz turbo

The processor is the specification that determines whether this laptop fits the workload. It delivers 10 cores and a maximum turbo frequency of 4.8 GHz, with a base speed of 3.6 GHz. This level of multi-thread performance suits heavy multitasking, large spreadsheets and virtual machines. Buyers who need discrete graphics for rendering, CAD or gaming should look elsewhere because the graphics are integrated on the processor.

Suited to office professionals, not creators

This device suits office-based users, remote workers and students who prioritise a sharp 16-inch screen, 16 GB of memory and a fast 512 GB SSD for everyday applications. It is not for creative professionals who require a discrete GPU for video editing, 3D modelling or colour-critical work. Buyers needing a touchscreen, higher refresh rate or user-upgradeable memory should consider other models.
