Thoughtful design
We put more thought into it so you'd get more out of it. Things like a soft-touch grip that makes it easy to grab and go. Like chrome accents on the touchpad and speaker bar that exude sophistication. And vertically brushed midnight black aluminum covers for tactile appeal. Inspired by the concept of unleashed energy, the sharply tapered, precision design is graceful yet powerful. It's HP's relentless dedication to design - at its best.
