Pros and Cons

HP EliteBook 835 G9

Strengths

The speakers on the 835 G9 are very good in this price range or at least what I paid for it. They're loud, clear, and have reasonably balanced sound from music and movies.
It's a really well-built laptop with a lot to like especially when it comes to Performance if you want that sort of Ultrabook type experience but want to be able to do a little bit of light gaming on the side.
The Windows 11 Pro is a nice bonus for such a budget-friendly device most people won't notice a difference between Windows 11 Pro and home
The webcam has 5 megapixels which should provide better quality compared to lower resolution cameras
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth worked flawlessly, with fast connections and no drops

HP EliteBook x360 1040 G11

Strengths

The EliteBook X360 1040 G11 has a very premium feel, tons of IO, and a great keyboard that makes it a competent partner for everyday computing needs.
The laptop comes with Intel's Meteor Lake Core i7-165h, 16GB of speedy memory, and a 1TB SSD, making it highly customizable and suitable for general productivity workflows.
The EliteBook has a sturdy and rigid construction, with a bright and almost white color that helps to keep fingerprints at bay.
The laptop's performance is snappy, with high single-core results in our PCMark tests, making it ideal for most general productivity workflows.

Weaknesses

The display options are limited, with only an FHD panel available on the review unit (there are other options available with higher color gamut coverage and brightness).
The webcam has a higher-than-average 5MP resolution but is not ideal for video conferencing.
The cooling system was not designed for prolonged heavy use, resulting in high temperatures during stress tests.
The GPU performance drops gradually during torture tests, which may be noticeable in usual use case scenarios.
