The design is unchanged from the existing ProBook 450 G3 as the 455 G3 is simply the AMD variant of the same chassis. Users still get the aluminum base and rubberized matte outer lid that promises to have passed MIL-STD 810G standards. Despite being a business-class notebook and design, the lid feels very weak and can be easily bent around its corners or depressed down the center.

The base and keyboard can be depressed slightly with a bit of force, but the warping isn’t major enough to be a cause for concern. Its dual hinges are sufficiently rigid up to its maximum 150-degree angle with no teetering of the display whilst typing.

Build quality is excellent with no unintended gaps between materials and only minimal creaking when attempting to twist the base. The inner display bezel sits flat against the edges of the screen unlike on some of our recent MSI gaming models.

Like most notebooks with optical drives, the surface directly above the drive is weaker than the rest of the base in terms of rigidity. The system leaves a good impression, but the fragile lid feels as if it should have been on a cheap consumer notebook instead

Touchpad

The small (~10.3 x 5.4 cm) touchpad is essentially identical to the touchpad of the last generation ProBook 455 G3. We experienced no issues related to simple cursor control and the gliding is equally smooth and responsive around the edges and corners of the surface. Unfortunately, the area is so small that multi-touch gesture controls can be somewhat unreliable. There is no TrackPoint for business users who may be accustomed to the feature.

The dedicated mouse keys are very quiet with its relatively soft feedback as the main drawback. Travel is reasonably deep, but it’s still very easy to depress the key without inputting a click to make for a “squishy” clicking experience.
