Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.
Know our brand? Leave an honest review, send us a screenshot, and pick a free gift — shipped free of charge within 1–2 business days.
Pay the courier with no extra fees.

Up level performance. Not size.
Pro-level performance combines with true mobility in this sleek and powerful laptop. Review 3D designs, create with AI tools in pro apps, run Copilot[1] locally and work on multiple projects anywhere. Stay productive with an AI PC mobile workstation that delivers power efficiency and long-lasting battery.[2]

HP recommends Windows 11 Pro for business

Work anywhere without compromising on performance with Windows 11 and HP collaboration, security, and connectivity technology. Summarize and rewrite content, get relevant content recommendations, and stay organized with Microsoft Copilot.[8]

AMD Ryzen™ AI PRO processor

Unleash power-efficient performance with a next-gen AMD Ryzen™ AI PRO processor. This CPU unlocks new levels of performance for the next era of AI-enhanced software and greatly increases efficiency for productivity tasks.[9]

HP Z Turbo Drive High-speed Storage

Work without limits in any location with local PCIe storage that’s up to 6x faster than SATA SSD, and up to 21x faster than traditional HDD storage.[10]

HP Fast Charge

Ultra-fast recharge takes you from zero to 50% charge in just 30 minutes.[11]

Spill-resistant Keyboard

Accidents happen - which is why we designed our keyboard with a drain hole, so minor spills flow out the bottom for easy cleanup.

Fast and efficient wireless LAN

The portability of your PC and the reliability of a fast connection determines where you can work. Get a fast and reliable connection in dense wireless environments with gigabit data rate Wi-Fi 7.[12]

Industry-leading security features

Advanced security features come standard. System safeguards like HP Sure Start – the industry's first self-healing BIOS – mean your device is locked down tight, so your data and identity are too.

Poly Camera Pro

Look your best on video calls and save some power too. Manage your video controls for internal and external cameras with Poly Camera Pro. Now Auto Frame, Spotlight, Background Blur, and virtual backgrounds save power running on the NPU.[13]

Upgrade to pro-level components

Say goodbye to lags and crashes with fast responsiveness on projects. With up to an AMD Ryzen™ AI 7 PRO 350 processor[3] and large memory configurations,[4] open large files and run pro apps simultaneously for speedy multitasking and increased productivity.

Work all day. Anywhere.

The most mobile ZBook, now redesigned, is made to move. With a long-lasting battery[2] this sleek device is small enough to fit in your bag so you can stay productive anywhere. This is high performance workstation power on the go.

Accelerate AI workflows

Hardware AI accelerators deliver power to propel advanced workloads. Offload and run productivity tasks locally on up to 50 TOPS NPU[5] while also multi-tasking across AI accelerated professional applications.

Help protect our shared future with PCs that drive towards increasing sustainability.

At HP, we care about the impact our products have on our people, communities, and the planet. That’s why this device is EPEAT® Gold registered[6] and the outer box packaging is 100% sustainably sourced.[7]

How to use

Power on the HP ZBook and complete the Windows 11 Pro first-time setup. Install required professional applications and any vendor drivers or firmware updates from HP Support to ensure optimal performance. Use the included Wi‑Fi or Ethernet connection for network access and sign in to Microsoft services to enable Copilot and local AI features. For sustained workloads, connect the system to AC power and monitor thermals using HP system utilities.

Recommendations

For best results in 3D review, AI-assisted creation and multitasking, keep system firmware and GPU drivers up to date, use high-performance power profiles when plugged in, and store large active projects on the internal NVMe SSD to benefit from fast load and save times.
