HP's EliteBook Ultra G1i business laptop takes everything we loved about the Arm version and reintroduces full x86 app support, driving comparable performance and still-impressive battery life.

HP EliteBook Ultra G1i review: Luxury AI laptop at a cost

 

Long battery life ; Sleek build quality with nice touches like a haptic touchpad ; Bundled AI software is more useful than on past AI PCs

It’s just too expensive ; No discrete GPU, which is necessary for many AI tasks ; Lunar Lake’s multithreaded CPU performance is lacking ; Glossy OLED display isn’t ideal in direct sun

The HP EliteBook Ultra G1i combines a premium Lunar Lake laptop with lots of AI software tricks, but the price tag feels too high.

HP EliteBook Ultra G1i 14 Review: An Elite Laptop For Elite Users

 

The EliteBook Ultra G1i 14 has a ton of features that business users and IT teams are going to love. But all of it comes at a significant price.

Fantastic build quality and premium materials ; Outstanding 2.8K OLED display ; Impressive software and security suite for business ; Intel Lunar Lake performance is spot on ; Excellent battery life ; Fantastic sound and camera

It is expensive, not for everyone but it does have its buyers

Overall, I have always loved the previous HP line that preceded the EliteBook Ultra, the Dragonfly line. That lineup of HP business machines was always fantastic, and the company has done that heritage proud with the EliteBook that has replaced it.

With its compact, elegant design and excellent OLED display, HP's flagship EliteBook is a fantastic machine -- but it's worth waiting for a sale before buying.

Excellent 2.8K OLED display ; Beautiful design that's also compact and lightweight ; Competitive application and AI performance from Intel Lunar Lake CPU

Very expensive when not on sale ; Battery life is good but not great
