The ProBook's are tested to MIL STD 810G. We've deployed thousands of ProBook's and they are very durable. All metal design is exclusive to the EliteBook range but you are paying for this.
Reviewing the 470 G7 as I type for the past two weeks. IPS display is superior compared to the G6 panel, 300 nits brightness and excellent viewing angles. Video out next week! 😃

i have the 440g6 and the screen is somehow similar to g6. it comes with a hazy/cloudy layer which is very painful for the eyes to see. what is the purpose of this and is there a ways to get rid of it?
I was quite surprised. I connected a 1080p display and went to youtube played 8K 60 FPS video thinking it would struggle. But played like butter. It didn't even use full power of intel intel UHD graphics and didn't even turn on the geforce mx130
Hello, Does the chassis material is different in Europe countries, because I’ve seen some reviews in russian which I don’t understand and they seem to say plastic about the bottom part. I’m interested to buy it (it’s price is 589 euro in my country) but it’s very important to me to be all aluminum (except the 2 parts that you mentioned) I would be very glad if you reply
UK models, the bottom cover is made of plastic, aluminium is found in the chassis surrounded by plastic. ProBooks around the world tend to be more plastic than metal due to cost. Only the more expensive EliteBooks and ZBooks have aluminium chassis'.
Thank you very much for your reply. So could you recommend me a laptop with similar specs but all-aluminum with no huge difference in price? Also does the aluminium bottom makes a big difference or not, do you recommend buying this laptop with this price?
Is there a reason why it has to be aluminium? Are you after a lightweight laptop and/or a durable one? It will be difficult to find something in that price range new. Nearest recommendation is the HP Envy x360 13 (2020) IMO
I want to ask How I could enable or disable touchpad in this model. In others there is a hot point on the upper left corner but in this model there aren't. I faced much troubles while I'm printing. waiting your help.

If anyone has any suggestions for headsets, I'd be very grateful. And would a wireless/bluetooth headset work... do those things still have to take up a USB slot? MUCH THANKS.
After 1 year of using this laptop, I have to replace the keyboard. Two keycaps have just come loose, although I've always been very careful. To my surprise, I can only replace top cover + keyboard, which costs me 25% of the original price of the whole laptop. Not a good deal for me.
