Switch it up
When workloads change or the user finds that they really need a different power supply, maybe to shed weight while
traveling or add support for a new application, all of the power supply sizes are offered as after market options that
customers can purchase at a later time. In the case of a professional using a docking station to connect at work, it is
highly recommended to use the higher wattage power supply option. For many of these users, the purpose of a docking
station is to connect to a larger or multiple displays, often to use more applications that require greater resources. For
this reason, it is best to choose the higher wattage power supply so that the user can work continuously without draining
the battery; HP recommends the External HP 230 W Slim Smart AC adapter for optimal performance on the HP ZBook 15
G2 Mobile Workstation.
More flexibility for more mobility
The HP ZBook 15 G2 is outfitted to support top quality professional applications on the go with speed and reliability. This
machine is easily configured to meet the flexible needs of the user as his or her needs change. A lower watt power supply
is lighter and smaller, providing ease of packing and carrying. While great for travel, lower wattage supply units may
not meet the demands of an everyday workload. In any case, the HP ZBook 15 G2 can also be configured to support any
requirements of the user.

Display technology background and information
There are many different measures used to understand or express the performance of a mobile workstation level
display. Display resolution would be the most obvious measure as you would want the best resolution for your tasks;
however, there are more important and relevant measures of a display that should be taken into account. Screen
brightness, viewing angle, response rate, and bit-precision are all important factors that need to be taken into account
when considering displays.
