Editorial Executive Summary
How we evaluateEliteBook 6 G1i AI PC is a versatile daily workhorse built for smooth office multitasking, documents, and web research, powered by the Intel Core Ultra 5 225U paired with 16GB RAM for seamless multitasking. Priced at £1387.28, it is currently tracking near its typical UK market baseline. Its primary limitation is graphics-intensive 3D gaming, as the integrated GPU is tuned for battery efficiency rather than raw AAA gaming power.
Gaming Performance
3.7/10Work & Productivity
8.0/10Creation & Media
2.9/10Portability & Commute
4.8/10Key Strengths
- Solid multi-core computing handled by the Intel Core Ultra 5 225U (17,722 PassMark score)
- Capacious 16GB RAM provides plenty of headroom for heavy multi-tab browsing and office tools
Trade-offs to Consider
- Integrated Intel Graphics graphics processor is built for efficiency rather than AAA 3D gaming
- Features standard IPS display; lacks the true inky blacks and infinite contrast of OLED panels
- Large 16" form factor provides generous screen space but adds bulk for frequent commuting
* Near recent regular price (£1330.55). Worth watching for discounts.
