Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Unboxing the HP EliteOne Desktop!”.
Oh, I should probably say what we’re doing here today, so HP and Intel sent over one of their new all-in-one PCS and they challenged us to get our work done using this unit right here. I don’t know what specification they sent. I’M kind of curious, essentially what we’re going to do is unbox this and then figure out. If we can do all of our daily tasks, including Mo’s daily tasks.
I think everybody’s going to take a turn testing out, vhp allinone PC and it kind of unboxes. Like a TV, you just pull the clips and then uh stand components and and gray power. Cable, Mouse included, subtle, clicky, ooh, strong metallic stand with monitor pivot. By the looks of it, Intel vpro i7 and the remainder of the stand very minimal very flat, this must be our keyboard, just like hp’s laptop products that we’ve looked at. You have the big font, which I’m a fan of quiet keyboard, ooh adjustable.
I, like the adjustability. This is quite a bit of height. Look at the height. We can achieve here very low, very high, integrated webcam, tilty and shut off.
See you later many different ports to take advantage of here, including first type c. Then we have type A Time: 4. There’S an Ethernet Jack.
The uh type-c also functions as a display. Port you’ve also got HDMI a full-on dedicated display port, so lots of interfacing options. Power cable goes in here: no power, brick, so power supply is built in to the all-in-one. So this Elite – 1 870 G9 – that I have in front of me is featuring an i7 13700 chip. It’S got 16 gigs of ddr5, 5 12 gigs of SSD storage, and it has that 27 in QHD display.
The integrated camera is 5 megapixels. You have Wi-Fi 6E plus Bluetooth, 53. It comes with a 3year warranty and it comes in around $ 1,649. However, if you only need a 24 in that one starts at around 1500 okay, so this is the HP rig the HP Allin one rig: it’s not much of a rig. It’S just one thing! So I’m going to be editing the intro sequence on this. Actually, I’m going to edit the entire video on this before we start editing, L didn’t mention this has a Type C and A type, a 4 and a half headphone jack. On the side. I like editing off hard drives and a quick and easy solution to that is having it right here without me reaching to the back of the PC. I can access everything. I need right off to the side.
You have your power button over here to the right, and then you have four extra buttons on the side that will give you access to your menu systems, adjust your settings As You Wish. Now I will say what we’re doing here is a bit Overkill, not a bit. It’S really a lot Overkill.
Most people that are going to be using this PC aren’t going to be taxing it this aggressively. What we’re editing here is a multicam with multiple different codecs. We have huge prores files taking up 200 gigs.
We also have h264 files coming off the uh Sony A1 cameras. Basically, the way I like to edit on a timeline is I like to just run through the entire clip chopping out de air rearranging certain segments. If I feel they need to be rearranged and then painting over the multi-cam angles to hide some of those jump cuts, my experience on the timeline has been very smooth.
There’S no chopping there, there’s no stuttering, none that I’ve experienced. I’M not challenging this footage by adding a lot of effects or anything it’s not typically in our workflow. However, I did change the clip speed for the time lapse and, as you can see over here, it’s pretty butter. This is smooth right, like that’s, that’s butter right. There, oh another thing I want to talk about is the stand. If you’re sitting in front of a computer for hours on end, this stand is so ideal, you can adjust it exactly to what height level you need to be at so that you’re not hunched over and then also you have your your tilt adjustments, if you want To work high but actually want to like lay back. This is comfortable.
There is one feature that kind of blew my mind. I have this annoying habit of pointing at the screen. I was showing lose something and while I was pointing at the screen, I realized this thing is touchcreen. Do you see this? It’S legitimately really really responsive like even without the magnet tool, it’s so responsive.
It is following exactly what I want it to do. I don’t know the touchcreen seems like something that probably won’t get used that much it was that wow that X Factor for me, my monitor, is touchcreen. Is your monitor? Touchcreen? Is your PC touchcreen? I didn’t think so. I’M moving in and out of the timeline while having multicam scrubbing through three different angles of footage and I’m not seeing any lag.
This is doing a really good job handling 4K footage. The expert time was 4 minutes for a roughly 3 minute clip for me that doesn’t matter because I’d rather have a smoother timeline experience than have an export. That’S just super quick check that out, if you’re collaborating with somebody, this type of here look at the screen.
What do you think, and they can be like hey, move this here? What I mean there, we go: okay, I’m being a little extra, but I’m I’m so amazed with this touchcreen. No no yeah yeah, no, no feel like the bottom is very iconic could be a unique angle if it’s like floor, but tilted upwards. So it’s just floating.
I don’t know, I’m just I don’t mind the floating. It’S just the hands, give it texture. As you would say see, this is the problem. Pov is more like I don’t know. If you notice, you got some Ze on there bro.
We just took a couple thumbnails for this New Vision, Pro fake and I’m going to edit them on Photoshop. So I’m just going to pick a few here that I think might work. Think this one all right. This is the one I chose. I really like the screen real estate. I think it’s really clean with the almost borderless edges I mean the color reproduction is something similar to other displays. I’Ve dealt with you know with the skin tones.
I feel like it’s more true to life. It makes envisioning what I would see on, maybe other devices other display plays more accurate Photoshop, at least in the thumbnails. That we do is not really intensive, but I do edit On Da Vinci as well and da Vinci is also crossplatform. It’S nice that uh, this computer can access that.
Okay, so I just finished the Photoshop thumbnail Mo just told me that there is a touchcreen and I would find it kind of useful if I were to you know, instead of using Control Plus to zoom in. I can just like quickly zoom in on these details, and just also pan and also rotate. That’S kind of cool yeah reminds me of that Way’s World part where they’re like look we’re in Delaware, hi, I’m in Delaware, how fun to be in Delaware. So my name’s Jack and I do a lot of the business related tasks at unbox therapy, which include a lot of emails.
Zoom calls. I just want to show you some of the features I would benefit from. Personally. For example, I’ve got the video control settings opened up here and you can see how I can change the layout of the frame.
This is wide. This is now portrait I can zoom in on tight and then there’s also a gallery view as well. If I had multiple people on the call – and one of the features that I like is the auto frame, so if I am to move um to a different part of the screen, it will automatically follow me.
So if I kind of get carried away on a call and I’m moving around, I uh won’t have to worry about not being captured. I can blur out my background, so people don’t know where I am. I could be in The Great Outdoors and uh. No one would know any difference, so I’ve plugged in an additional webcam over here. It will sense where my eyes are looking and adjust to whichever camera.
That is so, if I click on auto camera – and I then look at this side angle, you can see that it adjusts to this particular angle and then, if I look back at the uh HP one, it then goes back to this one. So I’m not having to change uh angles it does it automatically, depending on where I’m looking. Another feature that I really found interesting for myself is especially is this automatic Keystone? If I bring my whiteboard in if I want to show off something on my fancy, whiteboard boom, it automatically um adjusts to the Whiteboard. You know we can write some important notes Here, simple messaging, there get the point across, that’s my modotto, so it also has this AI based noise reduction feature.
It will recognize unwanted sounds like dogs barking or you know, a baby crying and filter that out. So it’s not interfering with your voice. Call okay, okay and here we’re going to test out the noise cancellations. So I’m going to have Mo doing something in the background where he’s crinkling some uh, like a bag which would be annoying for a a voice, call and uh, you could tell that it’s cutting it out and just keeping in my audio so uh people can just Concentrate on that nice you doing business right now, uh yeah is this business yeah.
Are you in a business mood? Will I noticed the auto exposure is pretty cool as soon as I start to take up more of the frame you can see, it’s got the super exposed lighting. You can imagine, if you’re in front of a window or something like that, where sometimes that auto exposure is like going haywire now you you have to hop on a call here and there don’t you. I do from time to time you’ve been known to hop on a not as many not as many calls as this guy right here. No no executive over there, Mr business over here yeah, got the brown shirt and the black pants.
It’S all business yeah! Well, the nice thing about these speakers is this firing right at me, so it’s not like bouncing off the desk or needing to bounce off the wall. You sound very present and Central yeah. This webcam looks great honestly. I mean when it comes to sort of the fundamentals like the day-to-day activities of the typical like workday. Those tasks are well taken care of with this setup in a package that is just so tiny and Sleek, just everything is sort of where you need it to be, and if you had to deploy like a dozen of these things or a hundred of these things, It’S intuitive and the individual is going to sit down in front of it and and immediately understand how to interact, how to get work done and and so on. So there you have it.
That’S HP and Intel’s Elite. One. The latest all-in-one that we’ve experienced here at unbox therapy very streamlined package. What do you think will? Could we get some work done or what look at that? That’S the thumbs up of approval right there .
