New Notebook Peek from the HP ProBook 405 Series

Bisnis.com, JAKARTA – It can’t be denied if adequate device support is really needed when having to work remotely (remote working). Especially in the current conditions where the Covid-19 pandemic forced everything to be done from home without face to face as before.

Of course productivity will be greatly influenced by the device used, rather than just relying on one’s own abilities. Because your ability ultimately cannot be maximized because of the limited ability of the device to be a working tool as well as a liaison with the office or other parties.

Long distance work is likely to be maintained after the Covid-19 pandemic is over because it is considered more efficient, both in terms of time and costs. Therefore, there’s nothing wrong if you start to prepare an adequate device. Starting with a laptop as the most essential device.

For this one, you might be able to glance at the latest series of HP ProBook 405 which has just been released by Hewlett Packard (HP) in the country, namely the HP ProBook x360 435 G7. The device uses an AMD® RyzenTM PRO 4000 Mobile Series processor which is a 7nm x86 technology processor.

According to the Indonesian Head of Personal System Category HP Inc.’s Ricky Handrian, the HP ProBook x360 435 G7 became the first laptop in the world to use that technology. The technology does not only affect the performance of the device alone.

“This is a 7 nanometer technology so it’s very different from the previous version. With this Ryzen Pro technology, not only performance, but also battery life becomes longer, “he said.

AMD® RyzenTM PRO 4000 Mobile Series is integrated with AMD RadeonTM Graphics which already supports HD Decode, DX12, and HDMI 1.4b.

For the record, the AMD® RyzenTM PRO 4000 Mobile Series falls into the Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) category where the processor and graphics card are combined. Therefore, for those of you who like to play heavy games or use 3D software like AutoCAD, the HP ProBook x360 435 G7 is not the right choice.

Meanwhile, the RAM used by the HP ProBook x360 435 G7 is 16GB of DDR4-3200 SDRAM.

For storage, the HP ProBook x360 435 is embedded with a 256GB solid state drive (SSD) that has the Windows 10 operating system installed.

Meanwhile, for the physical HP ProBook x360 435 G7 carries the concept of convertible with a 13.3-inch touch screen with aluminum casing.

“The entire series of HP ProBook 405 strength is guaranteed because it has undergone 19 types of military-standard testing consisting of a drop test, shock resistance, vibration, and other tests,” said Ricky.

Furthermore, Ricky explained that the HP ProBook x360 435 G7 is equipped with a security system in the form of HP Sure Start for AMD with self-healing BIOS that automatically restores the device from attacks or system corruption, HP Sure Sense utilizes the power of deep learning artificial intelligence (AI) to identify attacks that have never been recognized before so that helps prevent infection.

Then there is the HP Sure View Gen3 which directly blocks surveillance threats, and HP Sure Click which secures the PC from the threat of dangerous sites can be downloaded for free at bit.ly/SureClick until 30 September 2020, and the HP Privacy Camera with a physical shutter already installed.

Finally, Ricky said the HP ProBook x360 435 G7 has a number of important features to support video conferencing activities outside of its 5MP resolution webcam and capable of recording 720p HD video.

“The webcam and microphone are AI technology, capable of filtering out objects or sounds that are interfering with the video conference,” he concluded.

HP ProBook x360 435 G7 is available from July 2020 with prices starting from Rp. 11 million. In addition, the HP ProBook 445 G7 is also available with specifications that are almost the same with prices starting at Rp. 9 million.

The difference of the HP ProBook 445 G7 lies in its 14-inch screen and does not carry the convertible concept. The screen is still using a conventional screen.

The screen used is also not a touch screen like the HP ProBook x360 435 G7.
