HP ZBook Firefly 15 G7: Full Specs / In-depth Review
4 reasons to BUY the HP ZBook Firefly 15 G7
1. The Design and build quality
The design of the laptop is really neat and aligns with the looks that a workstation and a business laptop should have. It is very subdued and non-intrusive. It is safe to say that it won’t give you style points. The build quality is very good, with the entire body being made out of aluminum. The Z logo on the lid can be seen as too much but that may just be because the entire ZBook brand is not at well known as other HP brands.
The lid is easy to open with a single hand and the hinges operate smoothly. Open the lid and you are greeted by front-facing speakers, which more laptops should implement, as well as one of the best keyboards that we have used. It has spill resistance and a backlight, which is a great combo. Furthermore, the key travel is long enough and the feedback is nice and clicky. The touchpad is amazing as well, as it combines great tracking and gliding, due to its glass surface, with physical buttons. On the base, you’ll also find a fingerprint scanner.
2. The Battery life
The relatively small 56Wh unit lasts for a while. In our tests, the battery endured through 17 hours and 47 minutes of Web browsing and 16 hours and 20 minutes of video playback. The test is done with the Windows Better performance setting turned on, screen brightness adjusted to 120 nits, and all other programs turned off except for the one we are testing the notebook with.
3. The Display
The laptop has a 15.6-inch Full HD IPS panel with comfortable viewing angles, a quite high maximum brightness of 395 nits with a deviation of only 8%. The contrast ratio is also great, measuring at 1730:1. The color coverage is good, sitting at 95% of the sRGB color gamut. The display is flicker-free regardless of the brightness levels.
As for the color accuracy, the unit managed to reach a dE value of 1.2 when using our “Gaming and web design” profile. Below you can compare the scores of the HP ZBook Firefly 15 G7 with the default settings (left), and with the “Gaming and Web design” profile (right).
