After several years of struggling with some old laptops, I finally decided to update. This particular laptop was recommended to me by a technician I call on often. I’m very pleased with the speed and quality of the product.

Good computer, for the price. Always had good luck with HP mid to upper lineup of laptops/printers.

although refurbished it's like brand new. Very quiet, light weight and easy to use.

Nice Laptop

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I took the laptop from the box, I was very impressed with the sleek design and its lightweight. The frame on top feels cool to the touch like metal, but it appears to be plastic, I could be wrong though.
I started a timer to see how long it took to set up and download/install the Windows 11 upgrade. From start to finish it took exactly 2 hours and 57 minutes, with the upgrade taking the longest on a Wi-Fi connection.
There are 67 preinstalled apps and I think I can safely remove about 10 of them (if I wanted to) without it affecting the system. Since I plan to use this laptop for writing, I don’t see a need at this time to uninstall anything since the apps use 17.8 GB of storage.
As for the system itself, the HP ProBook 445 14 inch G9 Notebook PC Wolf Pro Security Edition loads my app data pretty quickly and runs multiple windows without any lag. Connecting to Wi-Fi can get pretty frustrating because I have to keep turning the setting off and on before it finally finds my signal, even when I am close to the router.
I really like that I am able to cover the laptop’s camera by sliding a privacy cover over it.
I was super excited to get the HP ProBook 445 14 inch G9 Notebook PC Wolf Pro Security Edition, one of the reasons being the 20 hour battery life. This being a laptop, I wouldn’t expect it to be needing a charge every few hours. The battery life leaves a lot to be desired. I charged it to 100% on day one, used it for about 6 hours and it needed charged again. I guess since the upgrade to Windows 11 (that came included with this laptop) took over 2 hours, I am not even joking, that could account for most of the battery usage. However, I worked in a preinstalled writing software for a few hours yesterday and the battery is now at 60% and is showing that it will last for a bit over 3 hours before needing charged again. That seems significantly low for a battery that’s supposed to last 20 hours.
At this time, I would recommend this laptop to others.

Battery life is good for work and studying. Capable of high performance in games like Hollow Knight, haven’t tried it on more heavy stuff. Multitasking perfect. The model design is pretty, screen has good visibility next to a window on a sunny morning. Touchpad is the only thing I feel is a bit hard to control, really liked the Elitebook touchpad much better.
