HP updated its EliteBook line of premium laptops for business and enterprise customers in January. But the company is making room for one more model.

The new HP EliteBook 1030 is a 2.6 pound notebook with a 13.3 inch display in a body the size of a 12.2 inch laptop, an Intel Core M Skylake processor, and a starting price of $1249.

HP says this model rests in between the Elitebook Folio and the EliteBook 1040. It should be available for purchase starting later this month.

The higher-resolution model also features a touchscreen.
