HP ZBook Ultra G1a – 14" AI Mobile Workstation

Product Overview

The HP ZBook Ultra G1a is a 14-inch AI mobile workstation built around AMD's Ryzen AI Max+ PRO platform and unified memory architecture, targeting AI development, 3D content creation, and engineering teams that want desktop-class capability in an ultraportable Copilot+ PC. With a high-bandwidth NPU and large allocatable unified memory, this ISV-certified mobile workstation runs local AI models and GPU-accelerated workloads that previously required a desktop. It is a forward-looking choice for IT procurement standardizing on AI-capable hardware and for integrators specifying compact, high-performance endpoints. As a Copilot+ AI mobile workstation, the ZBook Ultra G1a pairs portability with workstation-grade compute.

Product Description

The ZBook Ultra G1a is powered by the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO series with up to 16 desktop-class CPU cores and integrated AMD Radeon graphics, paired with up to 50 NPU TOPS for on-device AI acceleration. Its unified memory architecture supports up to 128GB of LPDDR5X, of which up to 96GB can be allocated to the GPU, enabling local large-language-model inference and simultaneous 3D modeling and rendering without discrete-GPU memory limits. Local NVMe storage scales up to 4TB for large datasets and project files. The 14-inch display is available as a 2.8K (2880 x 1800) OLED multi-touch panel with 120Hz and 100% DCI-P3 coverage, or a WUXGA IPS option for longer battery life, supporting color-critical creative and engineering work.

As a Copilot+ PC, the ZBook Ultra G1a delivers on-device AI experiences while carrying HP's commercial security stack, including HP Wolf Security and Windows Hello via a 5MP IR camera. The platform is ISV-certified for applications such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and Adobe Creative Suite, and pairs with the HP Thunderbolt G6 dock for single-cable desk integration and external displays. Note that the unified memory and storage are configured at build and are not user-upgradeable, so capacity should be specified at procurement.
