The EliteBook 840 G6 is HP's 14-inch business ultrabook, built around an 8th-gen Intel Core i5-8365U with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD. Its strengths are the aluminum chassis, the 1080p IPS screen, Thunderbolt 3, full-size Gigabit Ethernet and a backlit keyboard, which is more connectivity than most thin consumer laptops offer. It suits office and remote workers who want a durable, serviceable machine for documents, spreadsheets and video calls rather than gaming or heavy creative work. Against newer business laptops it is a generation or two behind on processor and memory, and the 8GB of RAM is the main limit for heavy multitasking.

Owners of the EliteBook 840 line generally praise the sturdy chassis, comfortable keyboard and broad port selection. Common complaints center on the modest 8GB of memory and the older processor, which feel dated next to current business laptops.
