The Future of Developer-First Laptops
HP Dev One Checks All Your Boxes
What's most important to you when choosing a laptop for work? You might prefer a keyboard that feels compact and light, or a certain level of screen brightness.
But for freelance developers, there are a few universal requirements. You need a system that combines power, security, and flexibility to grow with you as your career does.
We believe you have been held back by a status-quo that no longer meets your needs. Whether that's building-out a system for more memory or zippy performance, you've had to manually piece together these components. Now, we've designed a laptop that will function for the way you want to work, with a fast delivery window between 24 to 48 hours from purchase.
HP Dev One checks all your boxes, out of the box, to get you to work the way you want to.

Strong Battery Life for Your Freelance Developer Life
Your battery life may not be an issue when you're working from your home office, but as a freelance developer, you need the right amount of support for when plugging in isn't an option. Dev One enables you to work wherever you want, over lunch outdoors, or on the move when traveling. The HP 3 cell 53 Wh Long Life Battery comes standard to the system.
Keyboard Navigation, Peripherals, and Configuration to Match Your Style
Your keyboard is one of the most personal components you use as a freelancer, for the workflows you require. It needs to feel comfortable, offer flexible configurations, and nimble navigation and shortcuts.
HP Dev One is designed to support your workflows. Either work with the dual-point backlit keyboard, to navigate by trackpad, mouse, or keyboard shortcuts. Or, combine your system with the System76 Launch Configurable Keyboard, for a fully customizable, mechanical keyboard experience:

- Swap keycaps
- Adjustable keyboard angle
