The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 is a fancy, long-lasting but flawed premium ultraportable PC
The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 is built around an intriguing 13.5-inch 3:2 aspect screen rather than the usual 16:9 widescreen panel found in most comparable portables. With smaller laptops like this, that little extra vertical space can come in handy. As configured here, the panel sports 1,920 by 1,280 pixels rather than 1,920 by 1,080. In some markets, a 3,000 by 2,000 OLED screen can be chosen optionally.
In terms of key components, the Intel Core i7-1255U CPU is a low-voltage member of Intel’s latest 12th Gen Alder Lake family. In this case, it runs two high-performance cores and eight efficiency cores. There are obviously much more powerful mobile CPUs available. But it’s a good fit for an ultralight laptop and, on paper, is well up to tasks like image and video editing on the move. Likewise, the 16GB of DDR5 memory and 512GB M.
Speaking of which, this laptop is just 16mm thick and weighs just under a kilo. It’s extremely portable. Footprint-wise, it’s pretty compact, with very slim bezels on the sides of the display, albeit with slightly bigger chin and forehead bezels. Still, at least that forehead allows space for a decent 5MP webcam. The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 is also nicely built from aluminium and magnesium. It’s a quality feeling bit of kit.
