Business laptop with Thunderbolt 3
The HP EliteBook 840 G5 is a 14.0 inch business laptop built around an Intel Core i7-8650U processor with four cores and eight threads. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 512 GB NVMe PCIe M.2 SSD. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed. The 1920 x 1080 non-touch display uses LED backlighting.
Thermals noise and power
The processor runs at a 15 W base power level, which keeps heat output modest during typical office workloads. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 uses shared system memory and adds little extra thermal load. Fan noise stays low for document editing, web browsing and video playback. The included charger supplies power for the 15 W CPU and peripheral ports.
Upgrade considerations
This unit replaces an older business notebook that lacks a Thunderbolt 3 port or a fast NVMe SSD. The quad-core i7-8650U and 16 GB of RAM handle multi-tasking and heavy browser tabs more smoothly than dual-core predecessors. Buyers who need a dedicated GPU for 3D rendering or who want a touchscreen should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
How do I install an additional NVMe SSD in the M.2 slot on this EliteBook 840 G5?
Remove the bottom cover, insert the M.2 2280 drive at an angle, secure it with the single screw, and replace the cover; the step often missed is enabling the new drive in the BIOS before Windows sees it.
Which components will need replacement first on this 840 G5?
The internal 3-cell 45 Wh battery and the M.2 512 GB NVMe SSD are the only user-replaceable parts likely to wear out during the laptop's service life.
What thermal limit appears first under sustained load on the i7-8650U?
The 15 W TDP ceiling forces the quad-core processor to throttle clocks within minutes of continuous heavy work, capping performance before temperatures peak.
