Reviews of HP ProBook 4510s

  1. HP ProBook 4510s Review

    Reviewer: HardwareCentral
    7 July 2009

    What should you look for in a new notebook? In this economy, price ranks first followed closely by reliability and security. Way down at the bottom of that list comes styling, bells and whistles. With that in mind, consider the Hewlett-Packard ProBook 4510s, a well-priced, reliable yet attractive 15.6-inch widescreen laptop. Prices range from $529 to $949 and HP offers both pre-configured models and custom configurations. The unit we tested, model FM849UT#ABA, came with... Read more

    Above all the low entry-level price of just over 400.- Euro (depending on variant) makes the HP ProBook 4510s and respectively the 4515s very interesting as well as in the first instance the option of a matte and fit-for-work display , which in these price regions is only rarely to be found. It's all the more disappointing that only the glare version is currently offered in the low-price models. In light of the price you can put up with smears on the case, where above... Read more

  4. HP ProBook 4510s Review

    Reviewer: Digitaltrends
    28 April 2009

    The HP ProBook 4510s is a stylish notebook featuring a 15.6-inch screen along with a sleek design that offers function and style. Along with the large display the 4510s features a separate numeric keypad. At 5.7 pounds the 4510s is a bit heavy to be considered an ultra-portable, but it still weighs in far less than your average desktop replacement. The battery life, security software, and clean design make the ProBook 4510s an excellent small-business laptop. Read more

    The ProBook 4510s offers style and substance for business users on a budget. At $699, this 15.6-inch machine is a good performer for the price and comes with plenty of business-friendly durability and security features, not to mention good battery life. Plus, it looks stylish, complete with glossy touches and a raised keyboard. Although it lacks a fingerprint reader and the touchpad buttons take some getting used to, this laptop is a solid investment for those who... Read more

    Was priced competitively but because of HP lack of customer support I cannot reccomment this product. I have several HP products that work properly but they were purchased 5 - 10 years ago when HP had great customer support. Read more
