The ZBook Ultra: Power Meets Portability for Creators and Developers

If you’re juggling creative projects and AI development on the go, the new HP ZBook Ultra might be your next favorite tool. In this quick walkthrough, a user shares their first impressions after a few weeks of hands-on experience—and it’s all praise.

Compact Form, Full-Size Power
Despite its slim, portable frame, the ZBook Ultra packs a full-size keyboard that’s comfortable for everyday work. It’s noticeably smaller than traditional 15" or 16" laptops, but with no compromise in performance or usability.

Built for Creatives and Gamers
This specific model includes 128GB of RAM and a vibrant OLED display with a 128Hz variable refresh rate. Whether you’re editing video, designing, gaming, or just browsing, the screen delivers buttery-smooth visuals and deep contrast.

AI PC with NPU for Smarter Performance
As an AI PC, the ZBook Ultra includes a Neural Processing Unit (NPU) designed to optimize AI workloads and extend battery life. Expect longer run times—even during video conferencing—and faster local AI model execution, including the ability to run 70B parameter language models directly on the device.

Connectivity Without Compromise
No dongles required here. The device features two Thunderbolt ports, a full-size HDMI, USB-A, and a headphone jack—ideal for creators who still rely on high-end audio gear and external peripherals.
