HP ZBook Power 16 G11 with Core Ultra 7 165H, RTX 2000 Ada 8GB and 32GB SO-DIMM DDR5 (both slots populated) in an entry mobile workstation.

HP's value mobile workstation, offering ISV-certified RTX Ada graphics and upgradable SO-DIMM memory at a lower weight and price than the Fury line.

Overview

The ZBook Power G11 line offers both Intel Meteor Lake H and AMD Ryzen 8040 CPU options paired with entry-level RTX Ada Generation graphics, keeping SO-DIMM memory and dual M.2 storage for upgradability.

Our verdict

Reviewed by Burooj Alam. Rated by us, not by users.

Expert rating8.2 / 10

The ZBook Power 16 G11 combines a Core Ultra 7 165H, 32GB of DDR5 and a 16-inch 2560 x 1600 display. It has Thunderbolt 4, two M.2 slots with one free, and an 83 Wh battery at 2.04 kg, which suits professionals running certified design and engineering software.

Both RAM slots are already full, so more memory means swapping modules. The GPU has 8GB of VRAM, so heavy rendering and simulation are better served by a higher-end workstation.

Best for

  • Budget-conscious ISV-certified workflows

Not for

  • Heavy rendering/simulation workloads
