Jay Allen, business unit director, PC Systems, said: ‘AI is rapidly changing professional and personal productivity and creativity and HP’s next-gen AI PCs are designed to give users the ability to harness the power and capabilities of new, AI-driven apps and services. We’re expecting customers to be really keen to see them in action and try them out and we’ll be working closely with HP to ensure optimum access and availability at the earliest possible stage.’

Both HP devices are ultra-thin and light yet offer up to 26 hours battery life and exceptional performance. HP claims that a large Microsoft Excel file can be opened almost twice as fast. They incorporate 50% recycled aluminium in their covers and use 100% sustainably sourced materials for packaging. They also have EPEAT® Climate+ Gold Registration and ENERGY STAR® Certification.

The HP EliteBook Ultra also comes with Wolf Pro Security Next Gen Antivirus (NGAV), which harnesses the power of machine learning to defend against new and known threats. As a Microsoft Secured-Core PC, the device is designed to protect the PC down to the firmware level with hardware security features that shield user credentials and other critical data. The HP EliteBook Ultra’s come with a three-year warranty.

New AI apps are becoming available all the time, expanding the potential for more effective communication and collaboration through gestures, facial expressions, and voice interactions. Other early uses include real-time coaching and feedback for skills development and more advanced and faster creation and editing of images, audio, and video.

The HP OmniBook X AI PC and HP EliteBook Ultra AI PC will become available in the second half of June. For more information, contact the PC Systems team by clicking on the link below.
