The HP EliteBook 850 G3 is a 15.6 inch business laptop from HP’s flagship business range, built for executives, professionals and demanding office users. The touchscreen variant adds direct on-screen interaction for note taking, presentations, signatures and quick navigation, on top of HP’s well known business laptop reliability.
At the heart of it sits a 6th generation Intel Core i7-6500U, a dual core, four thread Skylake processor that runs at up to 3.1GHz on Turbo Boost. It handles everyday office work like spreadsheets, multiple browser tabs, video calls and document editing comfortably, and copes with the heavier moments of the workday without feeling sluggish.
This configuration has been upgraded to 16GB of fast DDR4 memory and a 512GB solid state drive. The 16GB of RAM gives you genuine headroom for multitasking, running professional applications side by side with browsers, communication tools and large spreadsheets without the system slowing down. The 512GB SSD provides plenty of capacity for documents, projects and archives, all loading at the rapid speeds only an SSD can deliver.
The 15.6 inch touchscreen display gives you a generous working area for spreadsheets, side by side document editing or detailed work, and the touch layer adds a useful extra interaction mode without giving up the usual keyboard and trackpad experience. It is particularly handy for client presentations, on-screen mark up and quick scrolling through long documents.
Build is where the EliteBook line really earns its reputation. The chassis feels solid and professional, the keyboard is comfortable for full days of typing, and the whole machine has the look of a premium business tool. EliteBooks are built to survive the daily grind of office life and commuting, which is part of why they hold up so well as refurbished machines.
Connectivity is excellent for a business laptop of this generation. You get a USB-C port, multiple USB 3.0 Type-A ports, DisplayPort, full size VGA, gigabit Ethernet, an SD card reader, a docking connector for desk setups, and a headphone jack. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are built in. The webcam handles video calls cleanly and the keyboard is designed for long sessions.
Every unit has been professionally refurbished, fully tested across all key components, and arrives with a fresh, licensed install of Windows 11. It is genuinely ready to use straight out of the box, and it ships with a 1 year warranty, a charger, and a 30 day money back guarantee.
If you want a 15 inch business touchscreen laptop with serious memory and storage at this price, the EliteBook 850 G3 TS in this configuration is hard to beat.
