The ZBook Firefly 14 G8 is a compact workstation warrior ready to throw down and get things done
Lightweight and sturdy chassis ; Beautiful color-accurate display ; Good port selection ; Long battery life
Top configs can get pricey ; Speakers are meh ; Performance isn’t workstation-worthy
The Zbook Firefly 14 G8 is an excellent mobile workstation that won’t keep business users stuck in the office and tethered to an outlet

The HP ZBook Firefly 14 G8 packs in a ton of firepower in a small footprint and is an easy contender in the expanding ultra-portable market.
Amazing build quality ; Modern and sleek design ; Lightweight and portable ; The 500 nits Dreamcolor display is outstanding even though it didn't come on this unit ; Outstanding performance for an ultrabook, best in its class ; Phenomenal battery life
