The HP Elite Dragonfly G3 is aiming to be one of the best lightweight laptops around, especially for business users. Like the Dragonfly G2 that came before it, it aims to pack plenty of everyday computing power in a chassis that's compact and light.
With a screen size of just 13.5 inches corner to corner, the laptop measures just 297 x 220 x 16mm, and weighs a kilo exactly. Slide this into a backpack and you're not really going to notice it's there, whether in terms of its size or its weight, and it has the perfect dimensions for working on the train or in other cramped spots.
In terms of aesthetics, there's a lot of understated style on show, from the silver HP logo on the laptop lid to the subtle backlighting on the keyboard. It looks every bit the premium device, and it feels like one too: the matte finish on the aluminium chassis definitely helps that. Despite it not weighing very much, it's a laptop that feels the opposite of cheap thanks to its considered finish.
