HP EliteBook Ultra G1q Price in Pakistan

The HP EliteBook Ultra G1q is HP's first Snapdragon-powered EliteBook and one of the original Copilot+ PCs launched in 2024. It is the business twin of the OmniBook X 14, with Windows 11 Pro and HP's business security software. The aluminium body is only about 11 mm thick at the back and weighs around 1.34 kg, and the Atmosphere Blue colour, which also covers the keyboard, makes it stand out from typical silver office laptops.

The 14-inch 2.2K (2240x1400) IPS touchscreen has a 16:10 ratio and full sRGB colour, so text is sharp and colours look natural. Brightness is around 300 to 400 nits depending on the unit, which is comfortable indoors but not ideal under strong sunlight. It runs at 60Hz, so scrolling is not as smooth as on 120Hz laptops.

The Snapdragon X Elite X1E-78-100 has 12 Oryon cores and a 45 TOPS NPU for Windows AI features such as Recall, Live Captions and Studio Effects. For office work, browsing, Teams and Zoom, Microsoft 365 and similar daily tasks it feels fast and stays very cool and quiet. The important thing for Pakistani buyers is that this is an Arm laptop. Most modern apps now run natively or through Microsoft's emulation, but some older accounting software, special printer drivers, VPN clients and many games may not work properly. Check your must-have software before buying. RAM is soldered LPDDR5x, so pick 32GB if you plan to keep it for years.

Battery life is the main reason to choose this laptop. The 59Wh battery can easily last a full day and often more on light use, which helps a lot during long load-shedding hours. It charges with a 65W USB-C adapter and fast-charges to around 50% in roughly 30 minutes. Ports are limited: one 40Gbps USB-C, one 10Gbps USB-C, one USB-A and a headphone jack, with no HDMI, so you may need a dongle for projectors. Wi-Fi 7, a 5MP IR webcam and quad speakers make it a strong video-call machine.

The HP EliteBook Ultra G1q price in Pakistan starts around Rs 210,000 for the Non Custom 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD version. It is best for executives, consultants and travelling professionals whose work lives in the browser and Microsoft Office. Gamers, engineers using older Windows software and video editors should choose an Intel or AMD laptop instead.
