How to upgrade RAM in HP ENVY 15-bp100 x360?

[Daboss13]

I need to know whether I can upgrade the RAM in the HP Envy X360 15-bp100na and if so what type of RAM it is (like DDR4@2133mhz) and the maximum size it can contain. This will decide whether I will buy this product or not.

Thanks in advance.

It comes with 4 gigs of RAM soldered to the motherboard and one upgrade slot. 

Service Manual

Since it is an i5 it appears that the maximum memory is 12 gigs with a DDR4-2400 module in the upgrade slot. 

See pages 1-2. Start on p. 35 for memory upgrade procedure. I think the prior 15-bp000 model is illustrated but the 15-bp100 model has the same memory shield. I think you will see a soldered memory bank instead of one of the illustrated slots.

Memory modules (2, SODIMM, DDR4-2400, 1.2-V):

8-MB 862398-855 4-MB 862397-855

(don't know why HP is listing these as "MB" modules they are "GB" modules.)

So bottom line it comes with 4 gigs and you can upgrade it to 8 or 12.
