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
