Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

This will get the job done for most people even if it is a little older. If you need the RAM this will be hard to beat with the current clown show right now.

This is a lot of money for this model. Blame that on the 32gb of ram which isn't necessary for this machine. If this was an 830 X360 model, the price makes way more sense.
I'd like to know what makes the 830 x360 more sense at this price? One's a convertible and the other a clamshell, two completely different form factors. Also, I'd like you to share the last time that model was on sale or posted here.

Given how expensive everything is these days this price seems pretty good.
The ram/storage alone is worth at least $200.
Always been a fan of the elitebooks, not a fan of modern HP though.

Just the 32G ddr4 RAM is $180 to $200. The 256G ssd is $52 or more.
I was looking to buy 8G/16G ddr4 and 256G sdd for my current machines recently. But I changed my mind after the ongoing price increase.
I have to go back to my old storage of m2 ssd with 80% and 66% health and probably re-use them, instead of buying new.
In the past, when the ssd health dropped below 80%, we would dump it and buy new. Not anymore.

I would have ordered the certified refurbished of this laptop for $380, if I don't have a pending order on a different
Elitebook order from a different non-Ebay seller. I think I had a good deal but they have not shipped since last week. There is a small chance this is trouble. So, stay with Ebay might be a good idea.

The 32G ddr4 RAM was $120 two weeks ago. Now, they cost $180 to $200.

Better than good; it's extraordinary overkill for the tasks you're describing. That being said, at this price, if I were in the market for [a computer], I would buy this right now.

If you have to ask, it'll probably do whatever you want it to do. If you have to ask, you're not an HD video editor.

I bought this a week ago: https://ebay.io/m/mwMo8o but am having second thoughts.
How do you rate this for another $100'ish more https://ebay.io/m/3SOPga

If Newegg offers free returns, you can reach out to them and ask if they'll give you the price difference and that otherwise you might return it and buy this one. Of course this is assuming same condition, and same addition of Allstate warranty.

This said, if they are unwilling to do this and you decide to order this one, I would wait until you receive both before returning the Newegg. It could turn out that the Newegg one is in better shape and for $40 that would be worth it.

You can download software online to stress test it and in particular take a look at the SSD hours and the read/writes - even with a SSD format these hours still stay so you can know if it was a heavily used or a light used machine. Good luck either way.

Does anyone know if the battery can be replaced? I bought a refurbished dell on ebay and the battery isn't very good, I would like to upgrade to this one but worry about battery life?

ironically the clown show could've been dealt with if people just stopped buying

How do you measure the health of SSD?
