Best HP laptops with Intel Core i5 or better
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 9, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Top pick: HP EliteBook 650 G10 (15.6", Core i5) — a proper business machine: sturdy chassis, good keyboard, full port set and easy upgrades. The best all-round i5 HP for most people.
- HP 15.6" (15-dy2152wm): the everyday consumer pick — i5, 512GB storage, and a big review base behind it.
- HP 15-FD0656NR: choose it for the newer 13th-gen i5; mainstream and light, but only 256GB storage.
- EliteBook 840 G10: the one to carry around — smaller, lighter, premium, and the priciest option.
- Elite x360 1040 G10: pick it if you want a 2-in-1 convertible with a touchscreen.
Also worth a look: the 13" EliteBooks 630 and 830 for maximum portability, the ProBook 440 G10, and the newer OmniBook 5 and EliteBook 8 G1i lines.
Left out: the Pavilion x360 14 (not an i5) and the EliteBook 860 G10 (unavailable).
