The HP ProBook 4 Flip G2i AI PC and the New Expectations of Work

A few years ago, choosing a work laptop was relatively straightforward. Most people cared about three things: performance, battery life and portability. If the device was fast enough to run everyday applications and survive a day of meetings, it had done its job.

Today, that bar feels surprisingly low. We now expect our devices to help us present, collaborate, create, communicate, take notes, join meetings, stay secure and increasingly, support AI-powered work. Somewhere along the way, the business laptop stopped being just a computer and became something much more central to how work gets done.

The HP ProBook 4 Flip G2i is a good example of how these expectations have changed.
