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.

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.

Community Reviews

This EliteBook 830 G8 looks like a solid business laptop for everyday work, especially if 32GB of RAM matters for Chrome tabs, Excel, PDFs, and photo storage. The 11th gen i7 and upgradeable internals make it feel capable and easy to service, and the RAM and SSD alone are treated as a big part of the value at this price. The main knocks are the older 6 plus year platform, the small 256GB drive, and uncertainty around battery and refurb condition. A practical pick if you want a lightweight office machine and can live with modest storage.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes. The 11th-gen i7 and 32GB RAM make it a capable work machine for Excel, PDFs, email, and lots of Chrome tabs, and it is described as enough for most people even though the model is older. The 256GB SSD is the main limitation if you need lots of local storage.

    edge929multiuseemaileViLNeWBiE06mekkis

  • Yes, it is worth checking closely on arrival. Reported issues include a loud clicking fan, a smashed webcam, and battery health below what a certified refurb might suggest, so testing the fan, webcam, and battery right away is prudent.

    scarnikedinapsolinesprogistyiu48

  • Battery condition can vary: one certified refurb arrived with battery performance that stayed stable for a few hours, while another reported unit had 78% battery health. Certified refurb is also described as typically the highest refurb grade, often around 90% battery health, but checking with powercfg /batteryreport is recommended.

    TomL6071tyiu48sprogis

  • Yes. It is described as a fleet laptop that is easy to open and service, with replaceable RAM, M.2 NVMe storage, battery, and possibly WLAN. That makes the 32GB RAM and 256GB SSD less of a dead end if you want to swap parts later.

    cptsovietroom112

  • The 256GB SSD is not much storage for large local libraries, but it can work for basic use or if you add an external drive. If the SSD fails, a replacement 256GB M.2 drive is cited at about $55.

This seems like a pretty good deal for a work computer (mostly using Excel, PDFs, emails, lots of tabs on Chrome, etc), right? Don't necessarily care about battery life since it will most likely be plugged in most of the time. I've been waiting for something with 32GB for a while (mainly for the Chrome tabs) and this seems like a great price. Unless you guys think we'll see something better during Black Friday... I can wait until then.

Bought one of these, fan makes a loud clicking noise. Pulled the back off and blew out what looked like a few finger nail clippings. Reduced the noise some but still too clicky. Sending back today.

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?
I had a similar situation with a refurbished Dell notebook, but I bought a new battery and installed it. It wasn't very hard or expensive.

I did not order this Elitebook 830 model. I ordered 2 different Elitebook 845 laptops. It was a timing issue. The first order was from a non-ebay seller. I did not expect the order to go through as it was pending. So, I made a different order in ebay. Finally, they both came. I wish I only ordered 1.
The one from non-ebay seller is acting funny. It was a UK machine (the previous owner was in England?). I was panic as I could not key in some info during setup. It turns out UK keyboard is slightly different. But it can change back to US English. There is an audio driver error as well.
The second order from ebay is fine. In the future, I will stay with ebay.
I never owned or used HP Elitebook before. It is better than I expected. Once a HP representative tried to convince me to buy a HP Elitebook for more than $1000. Now, I am getting those for under $400.

I bought the certified refurbished model and it arrived three days later. It looks new except a very small scuff on the side and it came with a proprietary HP 65 watt charger (not USB C). The seller included included a quick start guide on how to setup the new machine and the battery seems okay - I worked for a few hours and the charge did not deplete rapidly as I expected. So far it's been a great machine and I'm very happy with my purchase.

Typically, certified refurbished is the highest grade other than open box. They usually have 90% battery power, along with 2 year warranty. All other types of refurbished have 1 year warranty.
You can use powercfg /batteryreport, to check the battery health.

I ordered an "Excellent refurbished" (not certified refurbished) which has only 75% battery health.

Mine came with 78% battery health. The seller said everything above 70% is fine. So much for Certified Refurbished.
