2. The screen isn’t harmful to your eyes
HP ProBook 450 G6’s display panel (AUO AUO23ED) lacks harmful PWM and has a good contrast ratio which means that it won’t hurt your eyes even after continuous use (if you work in the evenings, consider buying our Health-Guard profile). It’s far from the best in terms of sRGB coverage or color accuracy but if you’re not a graphics designer you shouldn’t worry about that.
3. A good and quiet cooling system
ProBook 450 G6 has a cooling system of one fan and two heat pipes. The notebook keeps both the internal and external temperature very low while being pretty quiet as well.
4. Easy upgradable
You can easily get access to the internals of the laptop by unscrewing 7 Phillips screws. ProBook 450 G6 has two RAM slots and a 2280 M.2 SSD slot with NVMe support.
1 reason NOT to buy the HP ProBook 450 G6
1. Shallow keyboard; lacks a backlight
The keyboard has somehow short travel and you have to get used to that. However it “clicks” comfortably when the key is pressed so it’s not that bad. Also, if you like to work in the evenings, have in mind most of the configurations lack keyboard backlight.
