However, it is pretty nimble in the business sector and offers wide upgradability options, as well.Check out all HP ProBook 440 G7 prices and configurations in our Specs System or read more in our In-Depth review.1. Remove the bottom plate As with the other design features, the disassembly process of the ProBook 440 G7 remains largely unchanged from its predecessor.
