You could be an enterprising and goal-oriented business person, but in order to produce results you need to document, schedule, budget, maintain an inventory, and calculate profits. And to do these tasks, you surely rely on a laptop. So, when durability and reliability are the criteria, is it not important to take the time to choose a competent business laptop that makes your tasks easier? Here we are to help you in this process with two major choices: The Apple MacBook Pro and the HP EliteBook x360 1030 G3.

If you are a business professional or a creative artist who is also a hardcore Apple fan, then undoubtedly the MacBook Pro would be your first (and maybe only) choice. One of the top laptops in the markets, the Apple MacBook Pro offers a wide range of configurations and prices for customizing your own unique MacBook Pro. If size matters, then the 15.6-inch MacBook Pro is ideal for your business needs. And this large size does not make any difference whatsoever to its ease of portability. With its new eighth-generation Intel 6‑core and quad-core processors with a Turbo Boost up to 4.3GHz and a RAM of 32 GB memory, running multiple apps simultaneously would be a breeze. There is no doubt that the MacBook Pro is one powerful workhorse that you can exploit for your business. This quick performance laptop designed with a sharp retina display with True Tone technology and a long battery life of up to 10 hours is your ideal partner at work. Classically fashioned in Apple’s trademark Silver and Space Gray color finishes, the addition of an innovative Touch Bar with integrated Touch ID sensor enables faster access to certain services. Apart from increasing your productivity, the large-sized trackpad eases maneuverability and the Radeon Pro, Radeon Pro Vega 16, and the Radeon Pro Vega 20 are your options of graphics cards. The provision for extra connectivity with three USB Type-C ports, a Thunderbolt port, built-in cameras, and microphones are other features that impress users in the current Apple MacBook Pro.

The HP EliteBook x360 1030 G3 that works on the Windows 10 Pro 64 OS and an Intel Core i7-8650U vPro processor with Intel UHD graphics 620 card with up to 4.2 GHz Turbo Boost Technology is another top laptop that you can lay your hands on for doing efficient business. This tough machine is equipped with a 13.3-inch 4K touchscreen display with Corning Gorilla Glass, a memory of 16GB, and a 2 TB internal storage option. A large array of ports—the USB 3.1 Type-A port, a headphone jack, a nano-SIM slot for mobile broadband, an HDMI port, two Thunderbolt 3 USB Type-C ports, a volume rocker, and an AC adapter — are certainly high scoring points for this HP laptop. This sleek yet powerful 2-in-1 makes use of a neat keyboard and a pressure-sensitive, programmable-buttoned pen. A fingerprint reader, HP’s sharp and clear face-recognition webcam and the four Bang & Olufsen speakers are fantastic features you would certainly enjoy.
