Design

44xxs flow generation compared to 2011, the generation of 2012, but here is the 4440s almost no difference in the exterior design of the product. The machine targeted at business users or small and medium enterprises need a laptop durable, reliable, elegant but not too focused on the lightweight. In fact, the trend ultrabook thin and light laptops and tablets handy today, up to 28 mm thickness of the ProBook 4440s seem a bit heavy. It’s much thicker than regular laptops I’ve ever rated around 3-4 mm.

Because the machine is designed and somewhat boxy thick at the edges with the ratio of 16: 9 (wide format) should make the screen feel smaller than the 14-inch. But thick factor here is not good, but it would not help the space inside the machine becomes more widespread, leading to better heat dissipation that this is a concern of many people wishing to work with long-subjects including entrepreneurs.

At first when looking at the machine, silver-gray crust is made of aluminum and scratch the frame is made of metal makes me feel this machine will be heavier average weight of the 14-inch conventional laptop . The fact that the machine weighs only 2.2 kg and just like normal weight only.

Machine surface shell is made of aluminum with a scratch pattern as those along, next to the border on a horizontal bar silver emulsion paint to create focal points. The soft rounded corners, metal HP logo placed in the center. This design style is quite similar aboard N46VM Asus. This surface is very cool and do not catch fingerprints.

Surface and body are made of metal used HP technology not only makes the machine DuraFinish become luxury, sophistication, but also resistant to fingerprints, dust, scratches and shock resistant. Not only that, this model is also the technology expert evaluation is durable than 3 times the machine is made of plastic because it is made from durable aluminum Durable and meet standards the safety of the US military (MIL-STD-810G).

There is a little crossed borders screen at the edge of the screen to help looked thinner. The screen looks pretty glossy mirror screen as it is. Both sides of the screen border is not really thick but I felt the screen of the laptop looks smaller than 14 inches because it was kind of wide-screen. Display resolution has nothing special as usual only at 1333×768 pixels. When used in the sun you will find it difficult because the ball is slightly blurred. Relatively narrow viewing angle but also shows good black.

Borders on the screen with a HD resolution webcam eyes and two holes audio receiver enables easy conference meetings and more convenient.

Computer keyboard in the form of full size chiclet magnitude makes typing comfortable and do not be mistaken. Journey feels spacebar should dress up. You need a little attention when using the up and down arrow buttons because it is slightly smaller. The keyboard is placed slightly lower area reached down a bit compared to the surface, the area above a grid line speakers to play the sound. Grid row left early this speaker set off button on the machine, the first right turn off the WiFi button to put two and quickly called a web browser. The buttons are small lights display when operating.

Palm rest areas are made of metal and is fastened to the monolithic frame around the machine components. This area has always proved particularly cool right part. Palm rest area with an eye to the right fingerprint reader, a detail often found on HP’s business laptops, and other vendors.

The touchpad style reminds me of the previous generation machine. It is the separation of the two functions separate mouse buttons, the touchpad area becomes more crowded. If moving your finger from the bottom up or top down, it seems somewhat interrupted by the use of slightly smaller area and feel it more difficult to use multi-touch. Near the top left corner of the touchpad has a small LED light, when this is the point to knock twice on consecutive turns off the touchpad enabled (as a manufacturer), I had to type in four years time see effects this node. This lamp will light up orange in color indicating the touchpad has been disabled.

The two mouse buttons are definitely not very much, but when pressed for comfort because of the long journey and a good bounce. Also two mouse buttons and touchpad is quite responsive.

This machine has all the common connector and focused mainly on the left side. The two sides each side has two USB ports. The left side has two USB 3.0 high speed but be aware there is a small sign on the side of the SS knew was not there inside the blue plastic parts commonly found on USB 3.0 ports on the laptop screen. Besides the HDMI port to connect high-quality signal via television, LAN jack port located in a little deep, VGA port serves slide, rope padlock slot. On the left side there is a small LED light source newspapers when the machine is charging, the power jack is located slightly below the line of sight crossed with the bottom connector edges. This port has hardly looked just seems poorly exposed, I tried several times but the charger plugged in to the new turning round saw some bright lights to get power.

The right side of the machine seems fairly clear with only two USB 2.0 ports and DVD reader. This drive is also located at the bottom surface crossed between the edges should be slightly difficult to press a little hard on the button to open the drive.

Front edge with a hard drive LEDs signaling operation, a memory card reader, headphone jack and headphone jack mic.

If terms of the price, with the configuration as above, along with Windows 8 preinstalled copyright then this machine was quite attractive. We also talked a bit more about Windows 8 is installed on the machine. During the test I found some software programs are not compatible on this operating system, you need to pay attention to on the homepage of the software manufacturer to see if updates are available for Windows 8. The software update when run on Win 8 run for a while but the problem continues. Besides, Win 8 is quite new and is installed on a normal laptop does not have a touch screen, so the manipulation, control for I also have a certain bit crestfallen.

Performance

Test conditions: We turn off Windows Update, disable Windows Firewall, turn off the volume, turn off the internet connection, turn off the power saving mode (if available), set the machine in High perfomance mode to ensure your computer running at highest performance, move the hard drive status and monitor interrupts vacation to Never to not affect the test. In all performance tests, your laptop is plugged in uninterruptible power sources, except test battery will be fully charged then pulled sources to conduct the test. What tests have own terms, we will specify in the test conditions.

Audio, webcam and games

Tested in a closed room measuring 20 m2 I found the sound quality of the machine in the normal range, treble slightly more so when you turn the volume at the highest level to hear a little bit high and a bit shy. Vocal range is not as wide and deep that some of the recent Asus I have experienced. The machine is preset SRS Premium Sound software enhances the breadth and quality of the sound effects, but I think that does not seem useful to users because there are too many different options in it and without knowledge of audio it will tend to default (like me).

Webcam HD resolution machine for quality so pretty, can stabilize the conference meeting.

The unit can play well with most high profile games in the regular graphics as halflife, Empire, MU.

Battery Test

Using the program constantly running movie Kmplayer a 720p HD movie, the volume set at 50%, instead of the headphone loudspeaker, we measured the time between full battery until the battery itself off ( 5%) is 3h55p. Battery life for a laptop is so impressive. If used with light office work, you can easily use for more than 5 hours.

Calculate the charging time from the end until it is full, the machine is turned on and not used for anything else, time is rapidly 1h20p fully charged.
