Thin at 1.0" and weighing 5.7 lb, the 15.6" ZBook 15 G3 Mobile Workstation from HP is designed for mobile professionals who require a versatile system with powerful processing and graphics as well as simple scalability that can handle a wide variety of functions. The ZBook Studio G3 will help users stay productive, whether they are at home, at the office, or in the field, and it is powered by a 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7-6700HQ Quad-Core processor that allows you to run multiple applications simultaneously. Using Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology, the processor is capable of boosting to 3.5 GHz if more power is needed. The 16GB of 2133 MHz DDR4 RAM helps to ensure smooth multitasking and also allows the computer to quickly access frequently-used files and programs. The current memory configuration is 2 x 8GB 260-pin SO-DIMM memory modules with two additional slots available for memory upgrades. With all four slots in use, this system can support 64GB, or 16GB per slot.
The 15.6" Dreamcolor display features an Ultra HD 3840 x 2160 screen resolution that is equipped with IPS technology, an anti-glare finish, LED-backlighting, an ultra-wide viewing angle (UWVA), and a 16:9 aspect ratio. The dedicated NVIDIA Quadro M1000M graphics card has 2GB of discrete GDDR5 RAM and delivers a sharp, clear picture. You'll also be able to output video to an external display at resolutions up to 5120 x 2880 using the system's HDMI and dual Thunderbolt 3 ports, the latter of which supports DisplayPort 1.2.
For long term storage of your files, this ZBook 15 G3 is equipped with a 512GB Z Turbo Drive PCIe SSD, which offers quick access to your data. While the SSD may not have the larger storage capacity of a traditional spinning hard drive, it contains no moving parts which helps it to be more resistant against bumps, drops, and other kinds of damage. SSDs also receive less wear and tear than traditional hard drives, as they don't have any read and write heads. Additionally, as this SSD connects via PCIe as compared to SATA, it is able to operate with even greater data transfer speeds. It provides sequential reads up to 1.17 GB/s and sequential writes up to 930 MB/s.
If you want to add external storage, optical drives, memory card readers, and more, the ZBook Studio G3 offers two USB Type-C connectors that support 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 and 10 Gb/s USB 3.1. There are also two 5 Gb/s USB 3.0 Type-A ports and one USB 3.0 Type-A charging port. Gigabit Ethernet and 802.11ac Wi-Fi are also built-in for wired and wireless networking and Bluetooth 4.2 technology will also allow you to connect additional compatible peripherals. So that content from memory cards may be accessed, a built-in SD/SDHC/SDXC card reader supports UHS-II flash media and lets users download content from their digital camera. Other integrated features include a 720p webcam, dual-array microphones, and stereo speakers with Bang & Olufsen HD audio.
The ZBook 15 G3 includes a 150W Slim Smart AC adapter and is also able to operate using an HP Long Life 9-cell / 90Wh Lithium-ion polymer battery that lasts for up to 15.75 hours before recharging is required.
