HP EliteBook 840 G8 Core i7 11th Gen, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD (Refurbished) – i7 Performance and Multi-Monitor Power for Demanding Business Work
The refurbished HP EliteBook 840 G8 with an 11th Gen Intel Core i7 is the higher-performance version of HP’s 14-inch aluminium business laptop. Its Core i7 processor (i7-1165G7 or vPro i7-1185G7, depending on unit) delivers 4 cores, 8 threads, 12MB of cache and turbo speeds up to 4.8GHz. In practice, that extra cache and clock speed shortens Excel recalculations, code builds and PDF exports compared with i5 versions of the same laptop. In addition, the i7 unlocks the full Intel Iris Xe Graphics with 96 execution units, which handles light photo editing and smooth playback across several screens.
Because the laptop includes two Thunderbolt 4 ports and HDMI 2.0b, you can drive multiple external monitors from a single dock at your desk in Upper Hill or Westlands, then unplug and carry the 1.32kg chassis to a meeting. Meanwhile, 16GB DDR4-3200 RAM keeps several heavy applications open at once, and two SO-DIMM slots support up to 64GB when workloads grow. On vPro units, Intel vPro remote management also lets IT teams patch and support laptops without physical access. Every unit arrives refurbished, tested and inspected for dependable daily use.
