How to tell if a laptop is fake or branded?

[Serg0723]

Good afternoon !

I choose seven laptops for our organization. Apart from the Internet terrace, I have no other choice of location. Please tell me this model HP ProBook 450 G9 (8A5L6EA) - is this a branded HP model or not?

I am also interested in checking the originality of the following laptop models: 1.HP Probook 440 G9 (7M9X7ES) 2.HP ProBook 450 G9 (6A164EA)

Hi:

If the notebook product number shows up in the HP PartSurfer database at the link below, it is a genuine HP notebook:

Here are the results for the 8A5L6EA product number which shows it exists as far as HP is concerned.
