What we repair on the HP Dragonfly G4
Screen replacement
Cracked, flickering or lined 13.5-inch screens are replaced with a matching panel. Where the picture comes and goes as the lid moves, we check the display cable and hinges first.
Price confirmed before work starts
Windows repair and reinstall
The HP Dragonfly G4 shipped with Windows 11. We repair start-up faults, reinstall Windows cleanly with your files kept, and remove malware.
Battery replacement
We replace the internal battery and check the charging circuit and adapter at the same time.
Price confirmed before work starts
Charging port and power repair
Charging is over USB-C. A loose or dead port is replaced where it is a separate part, or repaired on the motherboard where it is soldered.
SSD and storage upgrade
The HP Dragonfly G4 takes an M.2 SSD. We clone the existing drive to a larger one so Windows, programs and files carry over unchanged.

Memory
Memory in the HP Dragonfly G4 is soldered and cannot be upgraded. It is worth knowing this before paying anyone for a memory upgrade.
We also carry out keyboard and trackpad repair, motherboard repair, liquid damage repair, overheating and fan repair, hinge and casing repair, virus removal on the HP Dragonfly G4, along with USB, HDMI and audio port repair, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth card replacement, webcam and speaker faults, BIOS password removal with proof of ownership and data transfer to a new machine.
Notes from the workshop
- These slim business models have soldered memory, and the display is a bonded assembly on touch and x360 versions.
- A forgotten BIOS administrator password on HP business laptops usually needs board-level work, with proof of ownership.
Data recovery from the HP Dragonfly G4
The SSD in the HP Dragonfly G4 can be removed and imaged on our own equipment, so files can usually be recovered even when the machine will not start. Recent Windows machines often have device encryption or BitLocker switched on. If so we will need the recovery key, which is normally saved in your Microsoft account.
