A unit with understandable arrangement and clear layout is put to use. Ports which are potentially permanently occupied for example the VGA output and the connection for the power supply are fitted on the rear of the device.įortunately HP also transfers the concept of a high quality business laptop consequently in the keyboard. For this reason there are slight advantages for right-handed people but also left-handed people should generally get on well with the EliteBook 6930p. Regarding the positioning of the individual interfaces it should be noted that they are limited to the rear area of the right-hand side of the case as well as the middle area of the left lateral edge. Indeed this cannot keep up with the quality of a digital video interface. In the test at a resolution of 1920x1200 pixels on our 24-inch test display (Dell 2408 Wfp) this produced an acceptable and thoroughly fit for work picture. If you want to save the cost of a docking station yet you want to connect an external monitor to the laptop, there's just the built-in VGA connection. Unfortunately a digital video interface is done without, for instance a display or HDMI port directly on the device. Of course headphone and microphone ports belong to the standard equipment. There are three USB interfaces, Firewire, a modem, and a LAN connector as well as an analogue VGA port on the rear of the laptop. Indeed you'll find out more in the battery section.Ĭonsequently you'll only find standard ports on the device. HP offers different battery solutions, which are fitted externally on the case, which can in parts significantly extend the battery life of the laptop. The connection for a dockable additional battery on the underside, which is standard for the HP business laptops (apart from the ProBook!) is added. The HP EliteBook 6930p shows this connection option also on its underside. Also the background noise present comes across as not very elegant.Īpart from the obligatory docking port, the required interfaces for a business laptop are barely different from those of a multimedia laptop. In order to lock the device, strong direct pressure on the display is required. Two appropriate spikes fixed to the top border of the display are met by two not particularly well designed openings in the areas where the wrists rest. Īlso the locking mechanism of the display wasn't really to our taste. For a business laptop of this price range this is a rather inglorious slip-up. Especially on the side of the ejection mechanism the deployed battery can clearly move and can be pulled out of the case by up to two millimetres until the locking mechanism took hold. To our amazement this unbelievably sat loosely in the appropriate case recess. The clearance positions proved to be thoroughly consistent, and shaky components are looked for in vain – with one exception: the battery. Even when you examine the laptop more carefully and look for possible manufacturing weaknesses, no weak points are noticeable. At the same time distortions are rarely to be seen and crunching noises completely fail to appear. The device can randomly be seized and picked up from all corners and ends including from the display. When it comes to the deployed materials it also isn't surprising that the case comes off brilliantly with regard to stability.
