What is the logic behind the HP ZBook Mobile Workstation industrial design?
The HP Mobile Workstation team chose a bold hematite and graphite color combination that represents power,
performance, and high-end aesthetics. This color combination is used across many other commercial platforms, but the
HP ZBooks have unique design elements. One design element unique to HP ZBooks is the soft-touch paint border
around the A-cover of the unit. This soft-touch paint provides added aesthetics and is applied to “high traffic” areas that
might otherwise be exposed to excessive fingerprint smudging. The wedge design provides necessary thermal support,
optimal I/O locations, and a more ergonomic experience during standard typing and usage.
What materials are used in the new HP ZBook Mobile Workstation platforms?
The HP ZBook Mobile Workstations are constructed from aluminium and magnesium with other metal alloys and rubber
elements. These materials create the best possible combination of durability, light weight, and low flexibility.
