HP: LEADING IN HYBRID AND GAMING EXPERIENCES

At the recent CES 2023, HP Inc. announced new products and solutions designed to recharge hybrid experiences so people can thrive in today’s digital world.

Work happy in an environment as productive as your home setup

Hybrid work is here to stay. 92% of Filipino employees prefer a hybrid model, but being productive in a hybrid environment comes with challenges. Employees now need more efficient and productive workspaces – whether at home or in the office. This means companies need to cultivate an inclusive and innovative environment where everyone has access to tech that can keep up with today’s work demands. Just in time, HP is elevating all workspaces with new devices and solutions so employees can work safely, securely, and productively wherever their work takes them.

HP Elite x360 1040 G10

Enhanced by HP Presence, the HP Dragonfly G4, HP EliteBook 1040 G10, HP Elite x360 1040 G10 deliver more meaningful collaboration experiences with new intuitive video conferencing innovations to recharge hybrid work. This includes:

• Multi-Camera Experience supports dual video streams and camera switching so users can easily show their faces and an object or a whiteboard at the same time, picture-inpicture, or side-by-side. The new commercial PCs are the world’s first business notebooks to support the simultaneous use of two cameras.

• Auto Camera Select uses intelligent face tracking to recognize which camera a user is facing to keep audiences engaged without breaking eye contact.

• HP Keystone Correction makes sharing a whiteboard or a physical document easy by automatically cropping and flattening images from the camera feed with a single click.

• HP Be Right Back lets users change their video feed to a still picture without disrupting meetings when they need a break.

As users move throughout the day, new features help intelligently optimize performance and power consumption, including:

• Intelligent Hibernate learns PC usage patterns, so the device will go into hibernation mode automatically to minimize battery usage at the end of the workday. Over time, the PC can eventually predict when a user typically uses the device the following day and convert to modern standby mode for an instant-on experience.

• Smart Sense optimizes PC thermal performance using AI to learn and adapt to PC usage patterns. The result is a quieter and cooler laptop that is more comfortable to work with while still delivering the power needed to get work done.

The newest HP Dragonfly and Elite 1000 Series PCs contain 90% recycled magnesium in the enclosure case, 5% ocean-bound plastics in the speaker enclosure, and bio-circular content such as used cooking oil to help lower CO2 emissions.

The HP E45c G5 Monitor is the world’s first 45-inch super ultrawide dual QHD curved monitor for a more immersive experience. Replace two 24-inch QHD monitors with one massive 44.5-inch diagonal monitor with the new Virtual Dual Display feature.

Innovating in Sustainability with Unique Materials for HP’s New Consumer PCs

Products designed for sustainability should be accessible to everyone, which is why HP is introducing highly innovative and unique products across its new consumer devices. The HP 14 and 15.6 inch Laptop PCs are available with either Intel or AMD Processors, and their beautifully compact design is made from ocean-bound plastics, post-consumer recycled plastics, as well as recycled metals.

The HP 24 and 27 inch All-In-One PCs also leverage unique materials to create the innovative frame, making these HP’s most sustainable all-in-one offering yet. This is the world’s first PC with recycled coffee grounds, which are used as speckles in the finish of the PC. More than 40% of this all-in-one’s enclosure contains post-consumer recycled plastics, 75% recycled aluminum is used on the arm stand, and 100% reclaimed polyester is used on the stand base.

And for HP products, once you’re done with the device, HP Planet Partners helps to get them either reused or recycled.
