Pros and Cons

HP ProBook 445 G7

Strengths

The HP ProBook 440 G7 offers pulsating performance thanks to its AMD Ryzen 7 700U APUs, which delivers exceptional performance on a mainstream business laptop.
The Vega 7 GPU provides a bit of light gaming capability and is complemented by good speakers that are normally found in consumer laptops.
The ProBook 440 G7 has a solid and well-built design, meeting the military standard 810G for withstanding shocks and bumps.
Upgrading to dual channel memory can make a significant difference in performance and is worth considering if you need more power.
The laptop's generous port selection includes multiple USB ports, an SD card slot, and an HDMI output.

Weaknesses

The display panel is average at best, with washed-out colors even on the highest brightness level.
Most of the ports are located on the right-hand side, which can be a problem if you have larger size USB sticks that cause issues with other ports nearby.
Battery life falls short of expectations, especially during heavy usage or gaming sessions.
The laptop's design does not prioritize aesthetics, and some users may find it unappealing compared to other laptops in the same category.
The Vega 7 GPU is not powerful enough to handle demanding games at high settings, although less demanding titles should run smoothly.
