As in many other fields of work, the computer has become the most important tool in the creative industries. The HP ENVY All-in-One Desktop was specially developed for these users, offering them a new experience in terms of functionality and features. In the lead-up to development, the target audience was surveyed on what their ideal computer would provide in terms of camera quality, backlighting, positioning and upgradability. This desktop computer is built for affordability and to fuel creativity with its features. As intended by its designers, it thereby also fulfils the vision of “making the computer personal again”. Featuring a wide display with a 21:9 aspect ratio, it enables content creators with the latest generation of powerful and efficient processors, with the added benefits of a movable 16-MP camera and enhanced lighting software. It also offers great flexibility, as the camera can be attached anywhere on the three sides of the display edge. The look of this computer is defined by its minimalist stand with a haptically appealing, polished surface which flows into the overall form. The stand also offers extensive functional advantages, as the essential ports are integrated into it.

This desktop computer is fascinating thanks to its flowing, elegant design in which the screen and stand form a harmonious whole. It is also impressive on account of its high-quality surfaces and the balance the individual elements achieve. This computer offers its creative target audience high performance and the benefits of a movable 16-MP camera. The sophisticated functionality is an expression of user-centred design.
