HP EliteBook 840 G6 Core i7 8th Gen, 16GB RAM, 256GB SSD (Refurbished) – Quad-Core i7 Value With Windows 11-Ready Hardware
The refurbished HP EliteBook 840 G6 gives you a quad-core 8th Gen Intel Core i7 processor at a refurbished price, and that generation matters. 8th Gen Intel processors appear on Microsoft’s supported list for Windows 11, unlike the 6th and 7th Gen chips in older refurbished EliteBooks, so this laptop can run a supported, current version of Windows. Its Core i7 (i7-8565U or vPro i7-8665U, depending on unit) delivers 4 cores, 8 threads and turbo speeds up to 4.8GHz, which handles Office, accounting software, Teams and multiple browser tabs comfortably.
In addition, 16GB DDR4-2400 RAM in two SO-DIMM slots (up to 32GB) and a 256GB PCIe NVMe SSD keep multitasking smooth. The 840 G6 also suits established offices: alongside a Thunderbolt 3 port, it keeps a dedicated docking connector for HP’s UltraSlim mechanical docks, a Gigabit Ethernet port, two USB-A ports and HDMI 1.4b. As a result, many Kenyan offices can reuse the docks and cables they already own. Meanwhile, the 14-inch Full HD IPS display, a 50Wh Long Life battery rated up to 17 hours, and a 1.48kg aluminium chassis make it easy to carry between Upper Hill and client sites. Every unit arrives refurbished, tested and inspected for dependable daily use.

Who This Laptop Is Best Suited For
As a result of this combination of specs, three types of users benefit most:
- Offices with existing HP docks that want to reuse UltraSlim docking stations and, therefore, value the dedicated docking connector.
- SMEs and NGOs that need i7 laptops on supported Windows 11 hardware at a refurbished budget.
- Accountants, administrators and students who run Office, accounting packages and online classes and want 16GB of RAM for smooth multitasking.
For fixed office or reception workstations, however, a desktop may suit better; browse our range of HP Desktops to complete your setup.
