HP EliteBook x360 — 10 models in the used-laptop catalog , spanning 2017 to 2022 , priced from $208 to $666 . This guide covers the configuration spread across the line and which setups are worth buying in 2026.
Where the EliteBook x360 line stands in 2026
HP's business convertible family of the late 2010s: 10 models, all 2-in-1s, spanning 2017 to 2022 and priced $208 to $666 with a median of $431. Screens are 13.3 or 14 inches, weights 1.21 to 1.75 kg, RAM ceilings 32 to 64 GB. This line ended its run in 2022 — the newer EliteBook flips live under different naming — so everything here is at least four years old, and the pricing reflects that.
The configuration spread
The CPU story is simple and consistent: Core i5 in 11 configurations, Core i7 in 8, all U-series chips — this family never pretended to be a workstation. GPU data in our catalog is recorded only for the three newest rows (Intel Iris Xe 80EU on the 2020–2021 trio); the older rows list no discrete option, which is expected for business convertibles of that era. The generation ladder is the real map here: 1030 G2/G3/G4, 1040 G5/G6, then the Tiger Lake refresh in G8 across both 830 and 1040 widths, ending with the 1040 G9 in 2022.
Price versus age
The ladder starts at $208–328 for the 2017 trio, steps through $381 in 2018 and $305–480 in 2019, then jumps to $566–616 for the 2020 pair and peaks at $666 for the 2021 1030 G8. The useful detail is the end: the 2022 1040 G9 lists at $578 — below the 2021 peak — so the newest machine in the roster is not the most expensive. Value concentrates in the 2020–2022 Tiger Lake rows at $566–666; below $400 you are buying 2017–2019 platforms.
Which one to buy
The pick of the roster is the EliteBook x360 1040 G9 (2022, $578, Core i5 1245U) — the newest platform and the roster's last word, listed below the older G8's peak. The EliteBook x360 1030 G8 (2021, $666, Core i5 1135G7 + Iris Xe) and 1040 G8 (2020, $616, Core i5 1135G7 + Iris Xe) are the Iris Xe trio's alternatives if one width suits better than the other. On a budget, the x360 1040 G5 (2017, $328, Core i7 8550U) is the cheapest i7 row, and the 1030 G2 (2017, $208, Core i5 7300U) the absolute floor — a nine-year-old machine we would only recommend as a secondary, travel-disposable flip.
Bottom line
Across the roster this is an honest budget-convertible profile: best CPU median 40.5, performance index 31.5, USComp Score 40.5, portability 79.8 — the flip-and-carry experience is the product, with best GPU median 0 and zero games clearing recommended settings at the median configuration. Energy efficiency 71.3 is merely adequate by modern standards, and reliability 23 is the weakest reading in this roster's own numbers — age and a thin data trail both show here. The summary: a sensible $300–600 used-convertible lane; take the 2022 G9 first, and treat anything 2017–2018 as a disposable secondary machine.
