HP has recently announced an All-in-One(AiO Chrome OS-based Desktop. It is marketed as a family computer with a rather unique design and a 21.5" rotating touchscreen.
The touchscreen has a resolution of 1920×1080. The rotating screen is ideal for scrolling through long web pages, social media feeds, etc. It can also be helpful in the kitchen to go through recipes easily. There's also a 5-megapixel camera with a much-appreciated privacy cover.
There are two USB-A ports, 2 USB-C ports, a headphone jack, and a power button at the back. There are dual 5W speakers tuned by B&O which will offer a stereo sound experience.
The device is powered by either a dual-core Intel Pentium Gold (2.4GHz) or Core i3 (2.1GHz) processor, which is very little but may be acceptable for a device mostly running web-based applications. The device has up to 16GB of RAM. The SSD goes up to 256GB. There’s also Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 connectivity. A compact HP Bluetooth keyboard and mouse set are also included.
The device runs Chrome OS and can run most Android apps via the Google Play Store. So as a family computer lying in the living room or the kitchen, it can act as a great device for smart home control.
The HP Chromebase AiO will be available in August with a starting price of $599.99.
