Is the HP ZBook 15v G5 still worth buying in 2026?

At $349.89 at Walmart as of November 7, 2026, it is a cheap way to get a six-core workstation CPU and a discrete GPU. It is a heavy older machine on Windows 10, so buy it for desk work, not portability.

Can it run CAD and 3D software?

Yes, within limits. The six-core Core i7 or Xeon E and 4 GB discrete GPU handle 2D CAD, modeling and light rendering; heavy scenes will need more GPU memory.

How long does the battery last?

HP rates the 70 Wh battery at up to 9 hours. Expect far less, roughly 2 to 4 hours, under CAD, rendering or other sustained load.

Can I add more storage or RAM?

Yes. It has a 512 GB PCIe NVMe SSD plus a 2.5-inch SATA bay, and the memory is user-accessible for upgrades.

Does it have Wi-Fi 6 and Thunderbolt?

No. It uses an Intel Wi-Fi 5 card with Bluetooth and has USB-C but no Thunderbolt.

What comes in the box?

The laptop and its power adapter. A stylus, external mouse and docking station are not included.
