User comfort and design
The speed is one thing, but perhaps the most impressive feature of the EliteBook Folio 9470m is its spill-resistant keyboard. The keys are laid out in a chiclet style on a tray that feels rock solid. When you hit the keys they feel soft and they bounce back with a quickness that puts most other Ultrabook keyboards to shame. In short, this keyboard is perhaps one of the best, if not the best on the market for writers. The only quibbles we have with it are the half-sized up and down arrows, and the placement of the TrackPoint device. This stick can sometimes get in the way when you’re aiming for the ‘b’, ‘g’ and ‘h’ keys because it sits slightly high (it’s a concave-shaped stick, rather than a rounded stick). We should also mention that the keys are backlit by a cool white light that has two brightness levels and it’s very easy on the eyes when typing at night.
