This laptop is great, easy setup and nice features. Battery life excellent as well as performance, display and touch screen. It's a winner and would recommend it for any type of business applications.

Great product. The shape reminds me of an older laptop though (very square). Runs amazing. Very slick. Love how light it is.

This laptop's specs sounded ideal, but I returned it (-10% restocking fee, argh). In real life, it felt smaller than 13.5" and cramped. Though light, it somehow didn't feel light in the hand, maybe because it's so small that the light weight is rather densely concentrated. The keys are flat and barely depress at all, which I didn't like. Visually, it's bland. I didn't hang onto it long enough to assess its function. I just didn't like it as a piece of hardware. I wish I'd been able to see it in a store first. It might be just right for others.

This is, by far, the best laptop I've ever used, and I'm glad I got it on sale. No laptop is worth the retail price, but if you can splurge and get a Dragonfly at a solid discount, it won't disappoint.

Great computer. Very sleek. Had a G1 dragonfly. This is definitely nicer with the 3:2 screen. Only thing I liked on previous model is the power button being on the side by the usb c ports instead of a key on the keyboard like it is now. But that's just a personal preference.

This is a really nice laptop. It is lightweight, nice screen size, touch screen is responsive, large letters and backlight keyboard, soft touch body and the color is this cool charcoal/kind of midnight blue mix, the touchpad is large (although I prefer using a mouse). It boots up quickly. There is an option to set it up with face recognition and fingerprint. I was able to easily set up my HP printer (purchased 2022) for wireless printing. The laptop also easily connected to all of our wifi (we have 3) in the house and outside. I downloaded Microsoft office suite software quickly. There are only a couple things that could be better: the power button is weirdly and unintuitively placed to the left of the delete button. I'm also not used to the placement of the home and insert buttons. Since the footprint of this laptop is smaller, the keyboard is also more compact than the other HP laptop in our home as well as my work HP laptop so I'm still getting used to it. Admittedly I have not used this laptop for anything taxing: Microsoft office products, internet, email, printing, some video streaming. I have had no issues. I would recommend it.

The laptop is very light and considerably smaller than other models but not to a point where it becomes hard to see the screen. The processing power is good and everything runs fairly smoothly. I personally like the mobility this laptop provides. I can take it on the go and move around comfortably whilst doing my work. I use my laptop strictly for work hence I am not too certain how well it would perform for entertainment purposes.

To this day this laptop impresses me, just like it did when I first opened it. I have not had the best experiences with laptops in my life, but that changed when I used the HP Elite Dragonfly G3. Going over the pros, talking about performance, this laptop exceeded my expectations. It takes no time in starting up, transferring files, and just doing overall computer trasks. The laptop also has really nice audio and video, which I have not experienced in a laptop before. The screen quality is excellent, to see this type of quality in a laptop blows me away. The two biggest things that captured my attention was the touch screen display, and the fingerprint unlocking feature. The overall design of it is also nice, it is very sleek, compact, and easy to carry around with me. There are also a few cons that came with the HP Elite Dragonfly G3 as well. When I first used the laptop, there were many many updates that took a while to figure out, download, and install. It seemed as if the updates were nonstop, but doesn't affect performance whatsoever. Another thing that has troubled me is how the laptop gets a bit hot from the underside, and the charger box itself. The fan then gets a bit loud trying to cool down the laptop, I think. This concerns me a bit, but it does not affect performance either. Lastly, I mentioned the fingerprint unlocking feature in the pros, but the one con of it is that I have had to reset my fingerprint twice because the laptop wouldn't recognize it, but it has been working over the past two weeks. Overall, this laptop is a great, fast, sleek, and smooth laptop that has exceeded my expectations for a laptop.

I enjoy that this laptop is light weight, I travel a lot and bring another laptop and a portable monitor so this laptop help eases the load. It's super light. Being able to adjust the screen makes it easier to zoom in and look at the different angles of the project i am working on. The processor speed and memory is able to handle to the programs i use with ease. I definitely recommend this laptop for your needs.

We've had this about six weeks and I couldn't be happier. The initial set up was super simple and straightforward. I love having the additional security measures on there since we use it for so many things. Fast processing, great memory.

I Love it!! It is durable, very light weight and fast. Very easy to pick up and take with me it is not heavy at all. I love that it has a touch screen feature. The facial security and the fingerprint security is easy and great for extra security. The keyboard has large letters to make it easier to see the letters on the keyboard. The screen display is bright. This is a great laptop and easy to use.

The 12th gen, i7 processor makes quick work of files I use with large data sets. I have Gb internet service, and the Wifi 6 radio is much faster than my other devices from previous generations. The size and form factor allows the computer to be lightweight, but to have sufficient screen space to display spreadsheets (my primary work application). I like the convenience of logging in to my machine using biometrics and the front-facing camera. I enjoy the added convenience of the touchscreen display when a mouse is unavailable. It has USB-C ports for power, as well as a 3.5mm port for audio so I can use both wired headphones/soundbars at home but can connect to Bluetooth as well when that is more convenient. I primarily have HDMI external monitors, so having that port is a welcome addition.

While I wish this came preloaded with Windows 11, that's not the make or break feature. This lightweight computer is perfect for school, as it takes up very little room in my bag. It also is a perfect computer to be just a browsing PC!

This is one heck of a laptop top of the tier. I love the compactness of this 13 inch computer has a long battery life over 7hrs fully charged. Has a great touch screen plenty of ram and storage all the upgraded bells and whistles price tag is a little steep though but worth it.

Love it, love it, love it. I have not upgraded my laptop in several years until this little gem. The laptop itself is nice, thin, light and easy to carry. The touch screen work as it should and is very responsive. The fingerprint or facial security is easy and provided extra need security. The keyboard has large letters and a backlit keyboard that help you work in any light conditions. The processors are lightning fast and the computer has no lag time. I could not be any happier. Buy this laptop for business, personal use or for your college student. I have been thoroughly impressed.

I own a small business and got this to be my business laptop and it's perfect. The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 - Wolf Pro Security Edition has everything I need with features that fit my needs as well. The lightweight and durability are great as I travel often so taking this laptop in and out of bags without weighing me down and its sleek design are awesome. Haven't had any battery life issues, the touchscreen is a great feature, as well as the fingerprint sensor as well. All in all, I could write a short novel on how impressive this is, but for me, it's everything I needed and more for what I use it for. I hope you find the same usage out of it and if you're considering it, don't hesitate because this is truly a great laptop.

I got this about a week ago and can't believe how easy it was to set everything up! The steps were so easy unlike my previous computer. I can't wait to see what all I can do. This is such a lightweight laptop with a screen that has excellent picture quality. The only downfall I have discovered so far is there is no SD port. But besides that, I love it!

The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 has so many great things to unpack. Its sleek design and stunning touch screen display is vibrant and react to my stylus well. This laptop is a light weight device that allows me to easily do my work on the go. The software included is a game changer as well. Starting with the tile application built in you can keep track of your laptops location at all times by downloadingthe tile app on a mobile device. The other software that comes pre installed is wolf security pro, a security software that scans every file for malware and viruses and warns of potential threats to your device. Ive found this laptops packs a powerful punch and surprisingly the graphics are even fantastic while running games in real time with out loss of frames. All in all the HP Elite Dragonfly G3 is one of the greats. This is a product for me that takes on my work, intense gaming , creating my artwork and I love it.

The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 - Wolf Pro Security Edition is an excellent laptop. It is lightweight and durable. I like the quality and the design.

Also it comes protected with HP Wolf Security that prevents malware. Overall I'm very satisfied with this laptop and I highly recommend it to everyone.

The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 - Wolf Pro Security Edition is one amazing, powerful laptop. It's got a sleek design and is thin and lightweight, easy to transport around. This is one very high quality machine. My boys use it for school work and for online games and are both amazed how fast it runs. We mainly keep it plugged in but it also has a long lasting battery charge when unplugged and charges back up quickly. I also love how it has facial recognition and immediately wakes up when it recognizes you. Great touch screen monitor also with bright, vibrant color. This computer really is amazing and would highly recommend!

I'm really blown away with everything that the HP Elite Dragonfly offers. The size of the laptop is very comparable to my old Macbook air - its got a bit more weight to it but not in a bulky way. Very sleek design and finish. The screen is of the highest quality, with really vibrant colors. Although the size itself isn't huge, the mousepad space was really maximized so it doesn't feel to 'tight' to operate. Battery power greatly exceeds my macbook, seems like 18+ hours without a charge. Charge also powers it to full battery quite quickly. The processing speed is great, have yet to experience any buffer and I generally operate large spreadsheets as well as music production software - this caused very regular "pinwheels" on my mac but have yet to experience issues on the Dragonfly. Overall, a high-performing and impressive system from HP!

This computer has everything I could want in a modern laptop. It is small and light, measuring just 11"x8.5". The screen is bright and brilliantly reproduces blacks and colors. It boots and shuts down very fast, all disk being SSD. It comes protected with HP Wolf Security that prevents malware and protects credentials that might be revealed by malicious sites engaged in social engineering to get your personally identifiable information and credit card numbers, etc. Very sophisticated. Comes with Win 10 (downgrade from Win 11). Ready for Office!

I have to say I was impressed right out of the box. With its lightweight and sleek design. I have never owned an HP laptop prior. Setup was nothing complex and was easy even for a non tech savvy person like me. Vibrant colors on the screen were also spot on. I will be using for personal use and my son for school. He was amazed at how fast it was as well. Pretty cool laptop. Excited to use it to create upcoming Christmas cards.

The first thing that I noticed after taking it out of the box was how light it was. Compared to other laptops I've held, this was considerably lighter, which I really appreciate. The color is a beautiful dark slate blue, which is nice compared most other laptops that are silver or black. Setup took about 20 minutes. It has a touchscreen which is really nice, and responds really well. It also has a large mouse pad under the keyboard which makes it easy to use. The screen looks fantastic with great color and contrast. The portability is fantastic. It fits easily into a bag or backpack, and due to its lighter weight, it doesn't become too heavy after a while. The only cons are there are certain apps and programs you can't uninstall, and even though I changed the sleep mode to 1 hour, it goes to sleep only after 5 or so minutes. Also, the up and down arrow keys are half the size, so that has been a little hard to get use too. I am excited to use this laptop during my travels and will definitely appreciate the light weight and portability of it. Pros: - Light weight - extremely portable - touchscreen - Large mouse pad - back lite keyboard - Wolf Pro Security System Cons: - smaller up and down arrow keys - can't uninstall certain apps and programs - short sleep mode, despite changing it

The Elite Dragonfly G3 was easy to set up and to restore files from my old laptop. That said, I did not like the constant popups to use Microsoft Edge and download the HP Audio app which can change settings. It would be nice if it had another regular USB port so I could use my wireless mouse when restoring files from a flash drive. Overall, I like the lighter weight, ease of use and fingerprint scanner for sign on.

Wow is my first impression of the HP Dragonfly Elite G3 Wolf-Pro Security Edition! I'm so blown away with how packed with power this is! Right out of the box was simple set up, comes with the charger, which charges very quickly battery life is great about 15-18 hours of battery life,security suite, you can even choose facial recognition or fingerprint identification to unlock your device. Touch screen, 5mp camera 1 button on/off, this is great for anyone that works from home, small to medium business is perfect for the security suite available. Also anti- glare screen & you also have many other options to customize to your content! Comes equipped with windows 10 once you back up all your documents your ready to upgrade to already installed windows 11. I'm not sure how much more I can sat, I love it & I believe anyone that uses this HP Elite will also be very impressed as well. This will be the last laptop for quite awhile, I'm so very impressed! Thank you HP.

This computer is really amazing. I love the compact and design. It is heavy but not in an obnoxious way. It feels substantial - like you have a legitimate machine. It is fast and the style is great. My favorite thing is that the facial recognition wakes it up when you are in proximity of it. You don't even have to touch anything.
