I bought an Elitebook X2 G3 off eBay 1.5 years ago and it had some warranty left. The screen was flickering a little, maybe my fault? They put my MOBO in a new case/new screen/ new keyboard and I pretty much got a new laptop.
HP Image Assistant is a nice tool to update the drivers. It's a manual program, not an automated one like HP Support Assistant, but way faster to just highlight all and update real quick. I think all Elitebooks come with the Wolf security AV now? I loaded it on mine to try (I usually use nothing/windows Defender). I don't notice any down sides and it's been completely free lol

I would have bought 16" if I haven't already gotten the ASUS S 14X Oled one.
The 16" has 80+ Watt Hour battery which should last long and has Ryzen 6850 Pro

For mine only cons are the power button being a keyboard key next to delete and the wifi card being a lesser brand one. Build quality, display, keyboard and mouse are decent. Both ram slots are upgradable in mine.
These laptop are similiar to T series thinkpads which usually is a lot more.
If I hadn't recently snagged a couple of other HP laptops recently (a 17" with some extra stuff and a chromebook, both at what I thought were solid prices), I would definitely be considering this.
HP EliteBook 865 G9 Wolf pro Security Edition: 16" FHD+ IPS, RYZEN 7 PRO 6850U, 32GB DDR5, 1TB PCIe SSD, USB4, Win10 Pro @ $1265.65 + F/S
$1,265.65
Other than the cpu the other differences appear to be USB4, extra 16gbram and Bigger 1ttb ssd. To me those don't warrant a $400 price increase.
If my budget is 12xx then a better option is the ThinkPad t16.
