HP Envy Recline 27, 23 And 23 SE All-In-One PCs

All-In-One (AiO) PCs tend to be the new trend these days for those who want something that is purely functional without taking up too much space. Of course, gamers would avoid AiO PCs like the plague simply because they do not come with the kind of hardware firepower required to churn out those high resolution framerates. Having said that, HP has announced a trio of AiO PCs in the form of the HP Envy Recline 27, Recline 23 and Recline 23 SE.

One thing about this batch of AiO PC designs from HP would be the elegance of it all, not to mention heavy emphasis being placed on their energy efficiency ratings. The “star” among the three would no doubt be the HP Envy Recline 27, where it will run on Windows 8 as the operating system of choice, powered by a 4th generation Intel Core i5-4570T processor, sport a 27″ Full HD display, 12GB RAM, a 1TB 5400RPM Serial ATA hard drive, a 16GB SATA SSD, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 730A dedicated graphics card with 1GB RAM, support for Blu-ray and Microsoft DirectX 11, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0 and WiDi connectivity, and NFC support.

As for the HP Envy Recline 23, it too, will run on Windows 8 as the operating system of choice, powered by a 4th generation Intel Core i5-4570T processor, carry 8GB RAM, a Full HD 23″ display, a 1TB 5400RPM Serial ATA hard drive, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 730A dedicated graphics with 1GB memory, support for Blu-ray and Microsoft DirectX 11, a wireless chiclet-style keyboard with volume control, Windows 8 hot keys and optical mouse, a pair of USB 3.0 ports, Wi-Fi and WiDi connectivity.

Last but not least, we have the HP Envy Recline 23 SE that is said to deliver the most immersive sound and touch experience available on a PC, thanks to a revolutionary adjustable full HD touchscreen display and premium sound of Beats Audio. It will run on Windows 8 alongside a 4th generation Intel Core i3-4130T processor, 4GB RAM, a 1TB 2.5″ Solid State Hybrid Drive, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 730A dedicated graphics with 1GB memory, support for Microsoft DirectX 11, a pair of USB 3.0 ports, an external HP USB SuperMulti DVD Burner, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0 and WiDi connectivity. Any takers?
