HPhas been earning a lot of attention from me lately, and it’s mostly been great.
On the other hand, HP’s enterprise efforts have begun to draw me away from those consumer-focused devices.

This is a fine-looking laptop, but it’s also really capable.
This hands-on was made possible thanks to a pre-production sample provided by HP.
HP had no input nor saw the contents of this review prior to publication.
On top of being premium, portable, and sustainable, the EliteBook Ultra 14’s design is practical.

On the inside, the EliteBook Ultra 14 is similar to the latest generation of flagship Windows laptops.
HP continues to impress me with its keyboards, too, and that haptic touchpad is glorious.
You get the gist; I really like this laptop.

HP’s premium hardware continues to impress me.
It’s a premium enterprise-focused PC, and it’s coming soon.
Either way, HP is rapidly making me an EliteBook fan.
Of course, that’s also true of the other HP EliteBooks announced during CES 2025.

I’ll never say no to a nice blue laptop, although I wish this color was brighter.
There are some crucial differences, though.
Wolf Security is also baked in by default.
Enjoy all the benefits of the non-Flip EliteBook X, but in four different postures.

I’m starting to look forward to EliteBook announcements more than OmniBook.
