HP EliteBook 840 G10 14" Business Laptop with 16:10 Touchscreen
A certified refurbished 14" HP EliteBook with a 13th Gen Intel Core i5, 16GB DDR5 memory and a 16:10 WUXGA touchscreen. Covered by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
Key benefits
-
Taller 16:10 WUXGA touchscreen — 1920 x 1200 gives around 11% more vertical space than a 1920 x 1080 panel, and it is a touch display.
-
13th Gen 10-core processor — The i5-1335U combines two performance cores with eight efficiency cores for responsiveness and battery life.
-
DDR5-5600 memory — 16GB of current-generation DDR5 running at 5600MT/s, and fitted as an upgradeable SODIMM rather than soldered.
-
Current-generation EliteBook chassis — The G10 uses HP's redesigned body with a larger touchpad and improved keyboard over the G8 and earlier.
-
Wi-Fi 6E — 6GHz band support for less congested wireless in busy environments.
-
Windows 11 Pro — Ready for business deployment out of the box.
Performance in use
The EliteBook 840 G10 is HP's current-generation 14" business laptop, and a considerable redesign over the G8 that preceded it. The most visible change is the display: a 16:10 WUXGA panel rather than the older 16:9 FHD, which gives noticeably more vertical space for documents, spreadsheets and code.
The 13th Gen i5-1335U is a 10-core hybrid processor. In everyday use that translates to quick response opening applications and switching between them, with efficiency cores handling background work to preserve battery.
16GB of DDR5-5600 is fitted as a replaceable SODIMM rather than soldered to the board, which is increasingly rare in thin business laptops and means the machine can be upgraded later. Combined with the touchscreen and Wi-Fi 6E, this is a well-equipped current-generation business machine.

What we check before it is listed
Every machine that comes through our Melbourne workshop is put through the same intake process before it reaches this page. It is not a visual check — each unit is powered up, tested component by component, and the results recorded against its serial number.
-
Hardware scan — processor, memory, storage, display panel, graphics and wireless are all identified and verified against the manufacturer's original factory configuration for that specific serial number, so the specification on this page reflects the machine you receive.
-
Storage health — SMART data is read from the drive, including power-on hours and reallocated sectors. Drives showing early warning signs are replaced rather than listed.
-
Battery condition — measured against design capacity and recorded as a percentage. Grade A units hold 70% or more of original capacity, Grade B between 50% and 70%.
-
Secure data erasure — every drive is wiped to recognised data destruction standards before reimaging. Nothing from the previous owner survives the process.
-
Functional testing — keyboard, trackpad, ports, camera, microphone, speakers, wireless and display are each checked by hand.
-
Cosmetic grading — the chassis, lid, palm rest and screen are inspected under light and graded honestly, with any notable marks recorded.
Anything that fails goes to our repair bench rather than to the shelf. That is why our returns rate sits well below the industry norm for refurbished equipment.
Why buy refurbished from Reboot IT
Reboot IT has been supplying certified refurbished business technology from Melbourne since 2001. Most of what we sell comes out of corporate and government fleets at the end of a lease — machines that were specified for business use, maintained under contract, and retired on a schedule rather than because anything was wrong with them. That is why a refurbished business laptop routinely outlasts a new consumer one at the same price.
Choosing refurbished also keeps working equipment out of landfill. Manufacturing a new laptop accounts for the large majority of its lifetime carbon footprint, so extending the life of an existing machine is one of the more effective decisions an organisation can make on its IT emissions — without asking anyone to accept less capable hardware.
Frequently asked questions
What is the advantage of a 16:10 display?
A 1920 x 1200 panel is taller than a standard 1920 x 1080 one, giving roughly 11% more vertical space. That means more of a document, spreadsheet or web page visible without scrolling.
Can the memory be upgraded?
Yes. This unit uses a DDR5-5600 SODIMM module rather than soldered memory, so it can be replaced with a higher capacity.
Does it have mobile broadband?
Mobile broadband was not confirmed on this unit. Treat it as a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth machine.
What is included in the box?
The laptop and a compatible power adapter. Original packaging, manuals and accessories are not included unless specifically noted.
How is shipping handled?
Free standard shipping across Australia. Orders placed before 2pm on a business day are typically dispatched the same day from our Melbourne warehouse, with tracking supplied by email.
What testing has it been through?
Every unit is inspected, hardware-tested, data-wiped to recognised standards and reimaged before listing. Battery health, display, ports, keyboard, camera and wireless are all checked as part of intake, and the specification is verified against the manufacturer's factory records for that serial number.
How does the warranty work if something fails?
Contact us directly and our Melbourne team will arrange assessment, repair or replacement. There is no offshore call centre and no third-party administrator between you and the resolution.
Has the previous owner's data been removed?
Yes. Every drive is securely erased to recognised data destruction standards and the operating system freshly reimaged before the machine is listed for sale.
Can schools, businesses and government buy on account?
Yes. We supply schools, government departments and businesses across Australia and can accept purchase orders. Get in touch if you need a quote for volume or a formal PO arrangement.
