Why the HP EliteBook 850 G5 Stands Out

Securing a top-tier enterprise laptop with a large screen does not mean paying premium retail prices. By picking up this renewed HP EliteBook 850 G5 from Hungry PC, New Zealand professionals get a highly durable business machine that easily outlasts standard consumer plastics. The EliteBook 800 series is famous for its stunning metallic construction, passing strict durability testing to ensure it confidently handles the bumps and knocks of daily commuting. It is a fantastic investment for anyone who spends hours managing complex administrative tasks and wants a sturdy machine built for the long haul.

Beyond its physical resilience, this computer is entirely focused on delivering a comfortable and highly efficient working experience. The expansive 15.6-inch Full HD display gives you plenty of room to snap multiple reference documents side by side, completely removing the frustration of constantly switching between tabs. The inclusion of the spill-resistant HP Premium Keyboard with a dedicated number pad makes navigating financial software and dense spreadsheets incredibly fast and accurate, even if you are working late in low-light environments. Paired with reliable Intel Core i5 processing and fast wireless connectivity, this laptop adapts perfectly to a wide variety of daily workflows from the home office to the corporate desk.

Premium Features at a Glance

Sleek Aluminum Chassis: Constructed from premium CNC aluminum to provide exceptional business-class durability and a sharp corporate appearance.
Efficient Data Entry: Features a full-size backlit, spill-resistant keyboard complete with a dedicated numeric keypad, making it a brilliant tool for fast accounting and administration.

Spacious Visual Workspace: The vibrant 15.6-inch Full HD screen offers excellent clarity and plenty of room for reviewing long documents and multitasking comfortably.
Rapid Solid State Storage: The snappy 256GB NVMe storage drive drastically cuts down system boot times and keeps application loading swift and responsive.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Hungry PC we source quality, ex-lease business grade tech, not just old e-waste! Every unit is individually tested and cleaned, inside and out, with worn components replaced or upgraded as necessary to bring these systems a new lease on life. Used tech devices require a high level of professional servicing to ensure longevity and give you the best value possible. Our expert technicians with over 15 years experience place an extensive QA process to ensure the physical hardware is operating effectively as close to new as it can be. Often due to our processes, the upgrades we fit to these desktop and tower PCs make them function better than when they were brand new.

Why risk the problems of a completely unknown condition, pre-owned device that has never been serviced? You get much better value, longevity and certainty from a properly refurbished device.

Not all refurbished tech is the same, experience our difference and see how we grade our systems here

Every laptop we stock has been restored, tested and renewed to A Grade quality before they are offered for sale (unless otherwise stated). Any faults or major cosmetic damages are listed and specifically noted on each product description where necessary, and are sold at a discounted rate as a lower grade option for those who wish to save some more money.

Yes! Your choice of Operating System version or distribution is installed fresh with latest Security Updates and Drivers. We can load Linux at no extra cost with your order! Simply select your preferred option from the Accessories / Upgrades section and we’ll ensure your machine is fully loaded with your ideal Operating System choice. Please note: This free service will add a little extra time to process your order. As Linux is a community supported operating system, driver/software support for Linux is at your own risk.

Yes! All our laptops are covered by an industry leading return-to-base hardware warranty. In the very rare instance there was a problem with your laptop, we’re here to help. Read Warranty details here.

Get discounted repairs for life! With our commitment to sustainability, we are the first in NZ to offer our repair discount program. Simply by purchasing your laptop from Hungry PC you’ll be eligible to receive 50% off our labour charges for any servicing or repairs to this device for 2 Years. This program rewards our loyal customers the benefit of cheaper laptop repairs on any out of Warranty services required including accidental damage to the screen, etc. Extend your warranty with us and we increase this discount program for the usable lifetime of the device.

Each laptop comes with a used battery that will still hold a charge and has been tested to last at least one hour or more during full-load stress testing. The vast majority of our laptops offer a very reasonable battery life and under normal use they often will last significantly longer than when they are undergoing a full-load stress test.

Battery Health Definition

Tested OK / Fair – Battery holds a charge and passes our full-load stress test for at least one hour, likely to last longer but has not been tested any further.
Good – Will easily play a full HD YouTube or Netflix Movie at Normal Brightness for 2 hours or more. During less intensive tasks like Word Processing they are likely to last longer.
Excellent – Battery would typically last at least 3-4 hours of playing non-stop YouTube or Netflix movies back-to-back, and likely to last significantly longer during normal use such as web browsing.
Brand New – Battery has been replaced with a brand new one to offer its full capacity.

Due to their nature, battery life varies significantly between each unit we have in stock. We also test each laptop to perform flawlessly when connected to the power. Laptops do not require the battery to be charged whilst plugged in to the charger and can be used all day while plugged in.

The power is in your hands! Choose to save money with the used battery, or if a longer battery life is required, we can supply a new battery replacement with free installation. Since used batteries are a consumable like printer ink or car tires, they are not covered by warranty. If you do require an extra long battery life, simply add the new battery option with your purchase.

Beware of the “Battery Health Percentage” Myth. With years of experience in the industry, we’ve seen countless laptops with dead batteries that report an 80% health rating (or even more) via software tools. This is often a very unreliable way of testing a battery and during our customized testing procedure, they often won’t even last ten minutes, fail our tests, and are then replaced. While others rely solely on this health rating to sell you a laptop, we instead decided to create this far more accurate test, so our customers can get a much better understanding of the battery condition and make an informed decision.

These machines have conquered the corporate world and are now set to elevate your tech with the best value and performance. Designed to meet the discerning needs of businesses, our ex-lease laptops have traversed corporate landscapes and are now ready to redefine your computing journey.

Just as businesses demand top-tier reliability, we’ve given these laptops a comprehensive overhaul. Every unit is meticulously examined and rigorously tested in our workshop, resulting in an impressively low failure rate. These laptops aren’t just dependable, with our upgrades and fresh configuration they are designed to outshine their original form.

Looking for exceptional value without compromising on quality? Our refurbished laptops offer the best of both worlds. By purchasing from us, you’re not only acquiring a high-caliber device but also contributing to a more sustainable future. A smart choice for your pocket and the planet!

Since buying a Refurbished Laptop can save you a lot of money and provide excellent performance, we feel they are a great idea not only for your bank balance, but also for the environment. By reducing ewaste and keeping these devices from landfill, we repurpose and renew them, to ensure they can bring a great deal of enjoyment to someone who is looking for a machine that can fit into any budget.

We strive to source the highest quality, business grade, ex-lease laptops. Instead of selling ordinary consumer grade equipment, we focus on machines that are designed for the corporate world. These laptops have higher build quality, more reliable parts, and typically more powerful specifications. After our extensive testing process, we can be sure the laptop will last the test of time. We have had many customers return to us and buy computers years after their first purchase, as they were impressed with the reliability and want to upgrade to their next, newer, fancier and faster machine.

Our online shop is open 24/7 for you to buy any products listed on our site. All orders are processed and shipped daily from our Hamilton warehouse Monday to Friday (excluding some holiday periods). Most orders for “In Stock” products that are placed before 12:00pm are collected by our couriers the same day, as long as no customizations or additional parts are required to fulfill the order.

Excellent…great laptop. Arrived quickly and great setup

Martin Foley

The right fit in a laptop is important and when HungryPC offered a refurbished HP laptop with a SD card reader it was just what I was looking for. I was really pleased when it arrived on my doorstep within days looking as good as new and ready to be put to work. Everything was so easy.
