HP ProBook 4430s

 

The HP ProBook 4430s business laptop offers the parts and package to get work done without blowing your company's budget.

Intel Core i3 processor gets the job done. All metal construction is lightweight, durable, and suitably stylish. HP provides full-fledged business security.

Average display. On the go business begs for WiMAX support.

HP ProBook 4430s: A Business Laptop With a Dash of Class

 

The HP 4430s is endowed with above-average looks, but in other respects it is the epitome of a basic, all-purpose business laptop. It's good at nearly everything, though not so good that you're likely to think "This is it!" It offers biometric...

Good screen and input ergonomics ; Attractive and affordable

No USB 3.0 ; Modest performance and battery life

A nice looking, but still journeyman business laptop that lacks USB 3.0.

HP ProBook 4430s-XU013UT Laptop Review

 

Balancing for business. HP's latest laptop in the ProBook S-series aims to balance form, function and specifications for professional users on a budget. Does it combine these demands into a solid business laptop?

Affordable price, HP's ProtectTools security suite, Good preinstalled software, Good software support, solid build quality

Midrange performance, Power cord sticks out, Tight fit for USB devices, Average benchmark performance

Review: HP ProBook 4430s notebook

 

HP's ProBook 4430s is the latest in the company's line of affordable, well-equipped, not-terribly-exciting small business notebooks. It was designed to handle non-enterprise business tasks while having some media capabilities. Most business laptops see...

HP ProBook 4430s

 

The HP ProBook 4430s is an affordable and stylish all-purpose laptop that suits the needs of a home or small business user. It has decent performance, although not the best, but the 14-inch display has really great quality. We were disappointed at HP's...

The 4430s is a solid, affordable business laptop that looks good in the meeting room and will get the job done. The absence of a high-speed local bus, however, is a definite drawback.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

a happy purchase

 

It's ironic that all my previous personal laptops have been HP, Pavilion, NC6000, DV7, and all my work laptops are Dell, and all my desktops are Dell. So far this one is the best and also the cheapest. I kept thinking to change to other brand but...

Win7 pro, 14" screen (no glare), HP security features, fingerprint to logon is convenient, 500G HD, 4GB ram x1 is easy to expand to 12GB for VM, XP, ubuntu etc, no heat, no noise, light comparably, HDMI port for external LCD looks even better than 40"...

screen is not bright(this is one of the biggest shortcomings of HP), particularly looks dark under natural light, the battery is very weak though you don't feel heat anywhere, the bootup is slower compared to my work laptop E6510 with win7 pro but a...

A great deal, but be prepared for some minor gripes

 

Bought this for my fiance to replace her 4.5 year old Mac Book Pro There is plenty bloatware installed, but most of it gives you the option to hide it away. First system startup/configuration took about 10minutes, not too bad. I'm impressed with the...

Chassis is high quality and very nice looking ; Laptop responds very fast (very nice i5 processor) ; Integrated graphics perform general windows task with ease ; Specs are very good in this price range (I paid 480 USD, on sale) ; WiFi connection is...

Monitor isn't the highest quality, but it's not horrible (at least it's antiglare) ; keyboard keys are stiff and square (maybe you will like this) ; track pad is small (not the smallest I've seen however), left and right click are stiff ; Single Ram...
