Display
The ProBook comes with a matte 15.6-inch display with a native resolution of 1920x1080 pixels. As an alternative, the computer is also available with HD display (1366x768 pixels). The incorporated display delivers a good brightness (344.8 cd/mA,A²) but performs poorly in contrast (540:1). We expect at least 1000:1 from a notebook of this price category. Unfortunately, the display shows PWM-flickering at a frequency of 200 Hz at brightness levels of 50% and lower. This might cause headaches and/or eye problems in sensitive people.
Performance
The ProBook 650 G3 is a 15.6-inch mid-range business notebook. It delivers sufficient performance for all usual application scenarios. The computer brings features which are typical for business devices such as a docking port and TPM. An LTE modem is optionally available. Our test model cost about 1,050 Euros (~11). Only a second configuration was offered at the time of testing.
