I have an HP Elitebook 840 G5 laptop, which has a SIM slot. I want to know whether it works or not.

All  Elitebook 840 G5 have a SIM card slot.

 

What 90% of them don't have is the optional WWAN adapter that is needed to connect to the cellular service.

 

If your notebook supports broadband internet, it must have one of the supported WWAN adapters listed in chapter 3 of the service manual.

You can easily check if your notebook has one of those adapters by going to the device manager, click to expand the Network adapters category, and look for one of these model WWAN adapters:

 

HP lt4132

Intel XMM 7360

 

If it doesn't, if you want to install one of those model WWAN adapters make sure your notebook has the required antenna system installed where the WWAN adapter would plug in to.

 

You can find the WWAN adapter removal and replacement procedure in chapter 5 of the service manual.
