Hewlett-Packard Company (NYSE:HPQ) rolled a refreshed series of Pavilion and Envy ‘2-in-1’ devices in an attempt to win the “back-to-school” PC sales. It will also release its Pavilion notebook series to accomplish the same task.
HP seems to be applying a strategy of giving its customers a large number of options. For example, HP Pavilion notebooks could be customized with Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) or AMD (Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD)) chips. It even offers color customization options, which includes silver, red, “peachy pink” and purple as well. It is also providing multiple options when it comes to storage and memory.
The IT giant also released two HP Pavilion x360 convertibles as well. These come with an 11 and 13 inch screen size options. A revamped HP Envy x360 series has also been released, which could convert into a large tablet from a premium laptop. In the notebook series of Pavilion, three more notebooks were added, which has a screen size options of 14, 15 and 17 inch size.
All of the devices being released by HP has auto via a new partnership established between itself and Bang & Olufsen. HP had earlier partnered with Beats, which was later acquired by
Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL). Vice President of Portfolio Strategy and Customer Experience Mike Nash believes that these new devices are made after keeping in mind the customer feedback, which it had received.
Perhaps the best out of all the new devices being launched by them is the HP Envy x360. This tablet would be ideally suited for presentations. It seems as though HP had taken the inspiration of its design from the HP Spectre x360. The Envy x360 should come with i5 or i7 processors and could have a capacity of 1TB HDD. It could be replaced by HP with a 256GB solid state drive with a 16 GB memory.
