  • Le HP EliteBook Folio 1040 G1. Le risque d'échec en corrélation avec la barre des 2000 euro est immense, mais nous pouvons pousser un ouf de soulagement en vous assurant que la commanderie n'a pas à rapporter de naufrage pour son navire phare l'EliteBook...

  • HP EliteBook Folio 1040 G1 è sicuramente un prodotto costoso e lo abbiamo detto più volte in questa recensione e lo abbiamo anche un po' penalizzato su questo fronte, ma alla fine bisogna comunque ricordare che la qualità si paga e che la dotazione di qu...

  • Das HP Elitebook Folio 1040 G1 konnte im Test absolut überzeugen - was angesichts der Hardwareausstattung kaum verwundert. Versehen mit einem Intel Core i7 und 8 GB Arbeitsspeicher machte die Business-Flunder einen flotten Eindruck. Auch bei der Qualität...

  • Grandiose Verarbeitung, Professionelles und attraktives Design, Gutes und mattes Display, Sehr gute Leistung für einen ULVChipsatz, Umfangreiche Sicherheitssoftware für Firmen, Kühler und leiser Betrieb, Tolle Akkulaufzeiten
  • Fragwürdige Touchpad ("Forcepad") Integration, die ein erneutes Lernen von grundlegenden Eingaben wie Drag/Drop erfordert, Throttling unter Last, Mittelmäßige Lautsprecher, Anstatt eines simplen Schiebemechanismus wird die Unterseite mit 11 TorxSchrauben
  • Das Folio 1040 ist ein Premium Business-Notebook mit einem hohen Kaufpreis ( 1.979 US-Dollar zum Zeitpunkt dieses Tests) und nur einigen kleinen Nachteilen. Im Vergleich mit dem internationalen Folio G1 , welches wir letzten Monat getestet haben , kann ...

  • Strak uiterlijk, Veel beveilingsmogelijkheden, 4G-ontvanger met probeerperiode, Adapter voor LAN en VGA toegevoegd, Touchpad is leuk..
  • maar voelt niet intuïtief, Schijf met drivers en apps is incompleet
  • HP's EliteBook Folio 1040 G1 is in veel opzichten een zeer nette laptop. Het exclusieve touchpad draagt helaas weinig bij. Het concept is leuk, maar de toepassingen zijn op één hand te tellen en voelen ook niet intuïtief aan. Deze exclusiviteit zal HP in ...
