Description

HP’s ProBook 600 lineup is situated below the EliteBook 800 series, which allows entering the world of premium-range business laptops at a comparatively affordable price. A 14-inch (ProBook 640) and 15-inch (ProBook 650) model are available. This test will focus on the first of the two.

The second iteration of the ProBook 640 range (“G2” generation) is based on the current model of Intel’s Skylake platform. HP primarily installs the medium-priced i5 CPUs such as the Core i5-6200U here. The configuration of 4 GB of RAM and a 500 GB HDD adds up to a starting price of roughly 750 Euros (~$838). 1150 Euros (~$1286) is demanded for our review sample with twice the storage capacity, a 256 GB SSD, and an LTE module. The processor-integrated HD Graphics 520 is responsible for outputting images on the 14-inch, Full HD panel – dedicated graphics chips are not offered for the ProBook.
