HP’s Elite Dragonfly series appeared with new models last year as part of the x360 touch laptop concept. Elite Dragonfly series, which is known as a platform that promises a flexible working style in compact dimensions, is very stylish with its design and very satisfying with its performance, is in our hands with its new model G2. The full model name is 336G8EA. This model number is important because configuration changes can occur from model to model.

Let’s start the review with the design first, because the design of this laptop is a factor that directly affects the way it is used. The Elite Dragonfly G2, which comes with a 13.3-inch screen, is thus an extremely compact laptop. The screen not only determines the size of the laptop, but also affects the way it is used, since the screen is designed to be touch-sensitive and also rotatable. Thus, you can use this laptop as a tablet, as well as in different formats such as stands and tents. This gives you a flexible and comfortable usage opportunity during leisure as well as working hours.

In addition to its compact dimensions, let’s also say that the laptop is designed to be extremely light with a weight of only 1 kilogram. Thus, the laptop, which you can easily carry with you in mobile environments, looks very nice with its design, looks stylish when viewed from the outside. While the remarkable “hp” logo on the back cover surface adds a nice touch to the laptop, the connections on the edges also provide expandability. Connections include USB Type-C to Thunderbolt, HDMI 2.0b to full-size SuperSpeed ​​USB port, while the laptop’s speakers come with the signature of Bang & Olufsen. Thus, you will be satisfied with the musical performance of the laptop.

The laptop’s screen offers a really nice view. Aside from allowing up to 1000 nits of brightness, it is nice that the screen edge bezels are kept particularly thin. Perhaps the only thing we don’t like about the screen, which can offer bright, colorful and sharply detailed images, is the screen contrast. By the way, the screen resolution of our model is at Full HD level. However, this model also has a 4K display option. You can also evaluate that model.

The Elite Dragonfly G2 is powered by the Core i7-1165G7 from Intel’s 11th generation processor family. The laptop, which can increase the frequency up to 4.7 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost technology, thus becomes the right platform to run intensive applications. The laptop, which can touch the frequency of 4266 MHz with its 16 GB DDR4 RAM memory, has a performance-oriented wing. With components such as Intel Iris Xe graphics card and 256 GB PCIe NVMe SSD, the technical infrastructure has been presented to meet the expectations of those looking for performance-oriented ultra-mobile laptops.
