Displays
Sure View reflect screen options
These are a switchable privacy filter option carried over from the EliteBook 800 G10.
When turned off, Sure View reflect displays are visible from all angles, looking similar to a standard display. Hitting the dedicated screen shutter key switches the screen to a narrow viewing angle - the user will see screen content when viewed head-on. Screen contents will be hidden from anyone off-centre and appear to be more mirror-like (as above). All Sure View options run at 1920 x 1200 resolution and may be available with touch screen or BrightView glossy options depending on model.
BrightView or Anti-glare
This is HP's gloss display option, providing deeper blacks for higher contrast. Many teams opt for the matte Anti-glare alternative option to reduce reflections in office lighting environments.

100% sRGB vs 45% NTSC
Entry level screens are capable of displaying 45% of the NTSC colour gamut. Creative teams should opt for 100% sRGB options to enable production-ready colour management. As these are measured on different scales, we calculate 100% sRGB to be equal to or greater than 72% of the NTSC gamut (at least 60% more colours than the 45% NTSC entry-level screen). Colour gamut limits are more noticeable for deeper and brighter colours. Dreamcolor and OLED options provide greater colour accuracy again with substantially greater contrast.
DreamColor & OLED
The 840 DreamColor and 860 OLED options are recommended for users creating Full HD content - their higher resolutions enable unzoomed content to be edited in software including Photoshop and Powerpoint while displaying application toolbars. These options are equivalent to those available on G10 models, providing a high quality alternative to full-workstations for content creators. OLED screens effectively provide unlimited contrast given the display's pixels emit light directly instead of shuttering a backlight, and provide the greatest colour performance currently available on a laptop. Dark themes for applications including Outlook, Photoshop & Windows 11 can help decrease battery drain for OLED displays.
