HP expanded its robust Chrome OS ecosystem for customers seeking ultimate versatility and mobility in today’s hybrid world, with the introduction of the HP Chromebook x2 11 and the HP Chromebase 21.5 inch All-in-One Desktop. HP also announced the new Works With Chromebook certified HP M24fd USB-C Monitor for a seamless user experience when pairing with Chromebooks and other accessories.
HP Chromebook x2: Freedom to go Anywhere with Productivity and Entertainment
The HP Chromebook x2 11 is designed for users that want to stay productive and entertained, with the mobility of a smartphone but the productivity of a bigger, touch-centric device. The ultra-thin and durable CNC aluminum unibody design makes it ideal for an active, mobile lifestyle. The magnetic detachable keyboard and kickstand’s 170-degree positioning allows the device to adjust for the ideal mode to work, create, or share content.
This is the world’s first Chromebook detachable powered by the Snapdragon 7c compute platform, designed for cloud-based operating systems like Chrome OS for improved power efficiencies, resulting in up to 11 hours of battery life. The Chromebook x2 is also the world’s first Chromebook detachable with optional 4G LTE, paired with Wi-Fi 5. These features mean the device can be as mobile as a smartphone, but with the productivity of a full-featured laptop.
Exciting features of the new HP Chromebook x2 11 include:
• For a vivid experience watching videos and movies, along with online gaming, this is the world’s first Chromebook detachable with 11-inch 2K resolution, 3:2 ratio display.
• For enhanced productivity on a detachable straight out of the box, the device includes a full-size keyboard with an oversized touchpad and is bundled with the HP Wireless Rechargeable USI Certified Pen. The Chromebook’s 3:2 aspect ratio allows users to write in portrait and landscape mode comfortably; and precision writing, drawing, and sharing has never been easier with HP QuickDrop, Concepts, and the new Cursive App from Google.
• For life-like video conferences and picture-perfect moments, there are two cameras – a 5 MP front-facing wide vision camera, along with an 8 MP rear-facing camera. And coupled with Audio by Bang & Olufsen, the device offers a great experience when using Google Meet or other collaboration tools.
• Access and download apps from Google Play Store, as well as games from the Stadia Streaming Game Service.
HP Chromebase All-in-One: The Social Hub for Your Home
The new HP Chromebase 21.5 inch All-in-One Desktop is the world’s first Chromebase All-in-One with a rotating display, designed to be placed anywhere in the home for the ultimate family sharing, entertainment, and learning experience.
The HP Chromebase AiO features a unique design that is head turning and practical anywhere in the home, with a 21.5-inch FHD rotating touch display. The screen can tilt upwards 20 degrees, and easily rotate 90 degrees from landscape to portrait mode with a simple touch for new ways to experience entertainment and immersive content. Portrait mode allows for better viewing to read, to scroll through lengthy webpages and social posts, or to be more productive when taking notes, or creating and editing documents. And the HP Chromebase AiO’s split screen feature allows for viewing multiple pages simultaneously for enhanced productivity and versatility.
New Works With Chromebook Certified Monitor from HP
The HP M24fd USB-C Monitor further expands the company’s Works with Chromebook certified line-up. Connecting to a Chromebook out of the box, with no additional setup or troubleshooting required, the Works With Chromebook certification signifies the product has been tested by Google to meet specific connectivity, input, and power requirements so users have a seamless and compliant pairing experience.
Built to work well with Chrome OS devices, the HP M24fd USB-C Monitor is equipped with a 65w USB-C cable that works with any USB-C capable laptop to connect and power the PC in one simple, single cord set up. This monitor also has HP Eye Ease with Eyesafe certified technology that reduces blue light without impacting the colours shown.
