    HP 840 G3 and G4. They’re pretty cheap refurbished on amazon and they’re very durable laptops. We used them for all of the remote workers during covid. And they have one USB-C port

      It’s has a normal charging port that take the small blue HP charger, and it’s USBc port can also be used for charging. I recommend double checking the specs of whatever you’re buying just to make sure I’m not imagining it.

        I can’t speak for the whole company, but their older business laptops have been good in my experience. I’ve worked for an airline, and a logistics company, and in both they had HP contracts. I know that Dell laptops felt more brittle, I saw more of them come back brokwn. Also getting them refurbished doesn’t give them money, if you don’t want to do that.
