The HP EliteBook Ultra G1i, announced at CES 2025, is the Intel version of HP's premium 14-inch business AI PC — the "i" denotes Intel. It runs Intel's Core Ultra (Series 2, "Lunar Lake") processors with Intel Arc graphics and an Intel AI Boost NPU (up to 48 TOPS). Compared with the Qualcomm G1q and G1q8, this Intel model adds a sharper 2.8K OLED display, dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, and a lighter chassis. Because chip, memory, and storage affect resale value, select your exact configuration using the tool above for an instant cash offer.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I confirm my laptop is the Intel G1i and not a Snapdragon G1q / G1q8?
Open Settings → System → About and read the processor. The G1i lists an Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) chip; the Qualcomm G1q and G1q8 list a Snapdragon X chip. Physically, only the G1i has two Thunderbolt 4 ports and the 2.8K OLED display. Our guide to finding your laptop's model number can help.
02 Is the RAM upgradable on the EliteBook Ultra G1i?
No. On Intel Lunar Lake chips the LPDDR5x memory is integrated into the processor package, so the 16GB or 32GB it shipped with is fixed. Only the SSD is user-serviceable. Select your actual memory amount above, since it affects the offer.
03 Can I trade in a G1i with a cracked OLED screen, dents, or that won't boot?
Yes. We buy laptops in all operational states, including cracked or burned-in OLED panels, swollen batteries, or units that won't power on. Reflect the condition honestly in the grading options above and we'll lock in a firm cash value.
04 Should I wipe the SSD or remove it before shipping?
Back up your files and sign out of your Microsoft and HP accounts first. You don't need to remove the M.2 SSD — our team runs certified, multi-pass data sanitization on every incoming drive. See our data erasure protocols page for the full process.
05 Which configurations raise my G1i trade-in value the most?
A Core Ultra 7 processor, 32GB RAM, and larger SSD (1TB or 2TB) are the biggest value drivers, along with clean cosmetic condition and an undamaged OLED panel. Selecting your exact CPU, memory, and storage above returns your most accurate cash figure.
