A 68Wh battery pack powers this device, which promises to offer 21 hours of video playback. Connectivity options include two Thunderbolt 4 ports, one USB-A port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. On the front, you get a 9MP webcam for video calls. For audio, there is a quad speaker setup with DTS Ultra. Other notable features include a fingerprint scanner for security, an HP Wolf Security chip (AI assisted protection against cyberattacks), and 1.57 kilograms of weight. The body uses 90 percent recycled material and 5 percent ocean plastic.
