Product: HP EliteBook 840 G3 Notebook PC
Operating System: Chrome OS
Just wanted to let people know that Chrome OS Flex has been working great on this machine. Boots in seconds. Bluetooth is fine.
Today I was pleasantly surprised to discover that I could even update the BIOS via the network . In BIOS settings. I connected a network cable to the laptop. Chose update via network.
Now it's running this latest BIOS 1.55
So if you're on the fence about Chrome OS Flex, I heartily recommend it for the HP Elitebook 840 G3. Runs so smoothly. Excellent battery life too!
