HP Zbook review and price

What happens when a mobile workstation meets a gaming laptop? The HP ZBook Studio G8 (starting at $1,894; $4,488 as tested) is frequently ordered with one of Nvidia’s formerly-known-as-Quadro professional GPUs, but it is also available with Nvidia gaming graphics, such as our test unit’s GeForce RTX 3070, and its keyboard has RGB rainbow backlighting that would look at home on a deluxe gaming rig. Our Studio’s 15.6-inch OLED panel, which is gorgeous but confined to a vanilla 60Hz refresh rate, will not appeal to high-frame-rate gamers, but the system adds up to a great platform for 4K video editors or other digital content makers.

A Standout in the Lineup

We’ve tested the majority of HP’s ZBook Review laptop workstations, from the heavyweight flagship ZBook Fury 15 G8 to the ZBook Power G8, which is aimed at engineering students and other budget-conscious customers. Last year’s ZBook Studios used just Nvidia Quadro GPUs, with the GeForce version named ZBook Create G7; the eighth generation uses both names.

The ZBook Studio G8 weighs 3.96 pounds, making it nearly as small and light as the 3.74-pound ZBook Firefly 15 G8, which is marketed as HP’s thinnest mobile workstation but significantly more powerful. The base model costs $1,894 and has an Intel Core i7-11800H CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 256GB solid-state drive, and a 1080p IPS screen with Nvidia T1200 graphics.

Our review unit increases the stakes for $4,488. It has an eight-core, 2.6GHz (5.0GHz turbo) Core i9-11950H CPU, 32GB of RAM, a 2TB NVMe SSD, an 8GB GeForce RTX 3070, and a 4K (3,840-by-2,160-pixel) OLED touch screen. Another screen option is the non-touch 4K DreamColor display, which we praised in our Fury G8 review and has a 120Hz refresh rate, making it the ideal choice for gamers.

The HP aluminum-clad measures 0.69 by 13.9 by 9.2 inches (HWD), making it somewhat larger but lighter than the Dell Precision 5560. (0.73 by 13.6 by 9.1 inches, 4.3 pounds). The screen bezels on the top and sides are narrow, yet there is no flex if you hold the screen corners or push the keyboard deck; the system has passed MIL-STD 810H torture testing for travel dangers including shock and vibration. With Windows Hello, you can bypass inputting passwords by using a fingerprint reader in the palm rest and a face-recognition webcam, however the webcam lacks a privacy shutter.

On the right side of the Studio, next to the power connector, are two USB-C ports with Thunderbolt 4 capabilities, an SD card slot, and a small DisplayPort visual output (units with professional GPUs have HDMI instead). One USB 3.1 Type-A port, an audio jack, and a security lock slot are located on the left side.

The other three are heavier, more costly flagship models: the Lenovo ThinkPad P15 Gen 2, the Dell Precision 7560, and the HP ZBook Fury 15 G8.

Hp Zbook Review And Laptop Battery

We evaluate the battery life of laptops by playing a locally saved 720p video file (the open-source Blender movie Tears of Steel(Opens in a new window)) with the display brightness set to 50% and the audio volume set to 100%. Before the test, we ensure that the battery is fully charged and that Wi-Fi and keyboard backlighting are switched off.

We also utilize a Datacolor SpyderX Elite monitor calibration sensor and software to determine a laptop screen’s color saturation—the percentage of the sRGB, Adobe RGB, and DCI-P3 color gamuts or palettes that the display can display—as well as its 50% and peak brightness in nits (candelas per square meter).

Hp zbook review and BOTTOM LINE

HP’s ZBook Studio G8 outperforms the ZBook Firefly and rivals the ZBook Fury as the best all-around workstation in the company’s portfolio.
