The HP Elite 1040 14 G11 series notebooks are designed for the enterprise space with an emphasis on sustainability, security and light weight. HP Elitex360 1040 is about balancing work and mobility. It’s large enough to be useful and light enough to be mobile.
Why we designed it:
Enterprise computer needs have changed, due to work from home and hybrid work environments. The machine needs to be stylish, professional, powerful and light, and made with increased amounts of sustainable materials. We use recycled magnesium to achieve our weight goals and make it easier, thinner, and lighter for the user to carry.
Why does it look this way:
The sleek Elite 1040 is designed to allow people to work from anywhere.
Light: Made of magnesium, so you don’t get weighed down
Thin: ultra-slim shell to take the office with you wherever you go. 16.9mm thin, down from previous years 19.9mm.
Smaller in the bag: 5.95mm shorter, 1.7mm narrower

Differentiation:
Business machines have to be designed to not stand out. They don’t have colorful flashy finishes. But using premium materials and creatively loading up the sides with all the ports that are required for expansion and connectivity is how you please the business user. Doing all that, while keeping the machine thin, light, and with a higher content of recycled metals and plastics than any year previously, is how we innovate within the user constraints.
