Beats AudioTM Special Edition All-in-One PC biedt gewaagd design en uitstekend geluid

Brussel, 9 september 2013 — HP presenteert vandaag de HP ENVY Recline All-in-One PC en biedt daarmee de beste en spectaculairste touch-ervaring op een All-in-One PC.

Dankzij het innovatieve productdesign kunnen gebruikers van de HP All-in-One PC’s het touchscreen lager draaien en dichterbij halen voor een meer toegankelijke en aangenamere interactie met het toestel.

"Door zijn innovatieve ontwerp is de HP ENVY Recline gemakkelijk aan te passen aan de verschillende behoeften van de eindgebruiker," zei Dirk Slachmuylder, Country Director Belux, Printing & Personal Systems Group. "Met de nieuwe ENVY Recline PC’s biedt HP de meest intuïtieve touch pc-ervaring."

Bovendien lanceert HP nieuwe printers die kostenbewuste consumenten toegang biedt tot hun documenten op verschillende toestellen om beter op hun behoeften te kunnen inspelen.

Revolutionaire touch-pc’s met fantastisch design en geluid

De HP ENVY Recline²³ TouchSmart All-in-One PC en de HP ENVY Recline²⁷ TouchSmart All-in-One PC, HP's meest revolutionaire touchscreen-pc’s, zijn voorzien van ‘10-point touch’-technologie en beschikken over een vernieuwend aanpasbaar design voor een aangenamere ervaring en meer controle dan voordien.

Een overgrote meerderheid van de mensen die touchscreens gebruiken, geeft aan het scherm liever dichtbij en in een lage positie te hebben voor alle touch-gerelateerde taken⁽¹⁾. Dat blijkt uit een studie van HP. De HP ENVY Recline-serie voldoet aan de behoeften van de touch-gebruikers met een full HD⁽²⁾ IPS-touchscreen dat op 10 vingers tegelijk reageert en een uniek scharnier waarmee het scherm eenvoudig kan worden geherpositioneerd. Dankzij het scharnier is het mogelijk het scherm probleemloos onder tafelniveau en dichter bij de schoot te plaatsen voor een intuïtieve bediening. Het scherm kan ook rechtop worden gezet voor traditioneel gebruik en het bekijken van films.
