1HP’s New Pavilions Bring Style, Productivity to All-in-One Desktops
HP’s Pavilion line isn’t known for delivering industry-leading power. Rather, it’s a trendsetter for HP, allowing the company to deliver decent features at a price that both consumers and corporate users on a budget find appealing. HP once again illustrated that balance between features and price July 25, when it released two new Pavilion all-in-one desktops. The computers come with ample power from their Intel Core i7 processors and include nifty features that enhance privacy. But they ultimately stand out because they offer compelling designs that put front and center what you need to get work done. This slide show will highlight the features that could make these new desktops worth a closer look.

4The New Models Have Different Desktop Footprints
The new HP Pavilion all-in-one machines come with different designs. One features a rather large black bezel around the screen, making it notably larger than its alternative, which has an exceedingly thin bezel around the display. That design allows HP to reduce its footprint without sacrificing screen size.

7Built-in Webcams Can Be Tucked Away for Privacy
In a nod to privacy and security, HP has included an important feature in the Pavilion all-in-ones. The devices come with webcams built-in that can be tucked behind the computers when not in use. The feature can sidestep privacy concerns of hackers spying on unsuspecting victims. Users also can add an IR camera for Windows Hello support to further bolster their security.
