Product description Work Laptops Made for mobile creative and design professionals with demanding projects, the 17.3" ZBook 17 G4 Mobile Workstation from HP provides desktop workstation power, performance, and expandability in a device designed for the road. This system is powered by a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5-7200U Dual-Core processor, which allows you to run multiple applications simultaneously. If you need more power, the system can be overclocked to 3.1 GHz using Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology. The 8GB of 2133 MHz DDR4 RAM helps to ensure smooth multitasking and also allows the computer to quickly access frequently used files and programs.
The SVA anti-glare display features an HD+ 1600 x 900 screen resolution that is equipped with LED-backlighting, a 16:9 aspect ratio, 220 cd/m2 brightness, a 300:1 typical contrast ratio, a refresh rate of 60 Hz, 106 ppi, and viewing angles of 45/45/25/35°. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 620 chipset delivers a sharp, clear picture, and you'll also be able to output video to an external display at resolutions up to 5120 x 2880 using the system's HDMI 1.4 and dual Thunderbolt 3 ports, the latter of which supports DisplayPort 1.2.
For storage of your files, this ZBook 17 G4 is equipped with a 256B Z Turbo Drive G2 NVMe PCIe SSD that uses TLC-type NAND and has an M.2 2280 form factor. While this SSD may not have the larger storage capacity of a traditional spinning hard drive, it contains no moving parts which helps it to be more resistant against bumps, drops, and other kinds of damage. SSDs also receive less wear and tear than traditional hard drives, as they don't have any read and write heads. Additionally, as this SSD connects via PCIe as compared to SATA, it is able to operate with even greater data transfer speeds. It provides sequential reads up to 2260 MB/s and sequential writes up to 1260 MB/s.
If you want to add external storage, optical drives, memory card readers, and more, the ZBook 17 G4 offers two 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 ports that also support 10 Gb/s USB 3.1 Type-C. There are also four 5 Gb/s USB 3.0 ports, with one of these ports doubling as a charging port. Gigabit Ethernet, 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi, and NFC are built-in for wired and wireless networking, and Bluetooth 4.2 technology will also allow you to connect additional compatible peripherals. Content from memory cards may be accessed via a built-in SD/SDHC/SDXC card reader that supports UHS-II flash media. Other integrated features include a 720p webcam, dual-array microphones, stereo speakers with Bang & Olufsen HD audio, and a smart card reader.
The ZBook 17 G4 includes a 200W Slim Smart AC adapter that operates using 100-240 VAC at 47-63 Hz and an HP Long Life 6-cell / 96Wh lithium-ion prismatic battery that lasts for around 17 hours before recharging is required, and typically recharges in 3-5 hours. The installed operating system is Windows 10 Pro (64-Bit) and also included is recovery media and an Elite Services card.
