  • Extremely light and portable, Comfortable keyboard and trackpad, Great speakers, Good CPU and SSD performance
  • Expensive, USB Type-C adapters required, Bottom gets hot with heavy use
  • The HP EliteBook Folio G1 targets a very specific niche, complementing the even thinner HP Spectre 13 which has a wider appeal. It's obviously an indulgence, but if you're the type of person who is willing to spend a lot in order to have the best possible...

  • Très mince et léger avec un design et un assemblage haut de gamme, un grand clavier très confortable pour un ordinateur ultraportable, nombreuses options de configuration y compris la possibilité d'avoir un écran tactile 4K

  • Concurrent désigné des Apple MacBook 12 pouces, le HP Folio G1 tire mieux parti de son petit Core M et se montre un peu plus véloce que le top-modèle d'Apple...
