Onboard memory, the trade-off for having a slim mobile workstation is upgrade options like the memory is non-existent but the same could be said for the competition
Security-wise, comes with a wealth of tools to protect your hardware and data, new in the g8 we have a built-in tile that helps you track down your misplaced device using the tile app on your phone
Tamper lock intrusion detection system, windows hello facial recognition using the ir sensors near the webcam and a fingerprint sensor
HP Long Life 6L 83Whr Lithium-ion battery provides about six to seven hours of battery life with general usage
