Goodbye CES 2019, this was Ubergizmo’s 14th CES! It was difficult to navigate the avalanche of new products and technologies announced there. Including the pre-show work, it took out a huge chunk of December and all of the Holidays, but the chips have fallen, and here are the best products and technologies we’ve seen at CES 2019, in no particular order!

#CES2019 – The thing about buying computers from computer companies is that usually the chassis used is customized to the manufacturer’s needs, which means that it can be a bit tricky if you’re trying to make the upgrade yourself. This is versus buying your own components and assembling them yourself, which usually makes future upgrades easier.

HP has been pushing for large Gaming Monitors for some time, and we admit that it got our interest before, but the new Omen x 65 Emporium with Soundbar reaches a new level.

The HP Spectre 15 x360 already gets a significant update at CES in the form of an AMOLED display option. If you just got one recently, you might kick yourself right now, but this is a very exciting option, and hopefully just a new beginning of AMOLED on laptops.

Desktops generally tend to be more comfortable to work on compared to laptops, but at the same time we know that there are some users out there who travel a lot and thus laptops are more convenient. However when you’re home or at the office, hooking the laptop up to an external display is a pretty common scenario.

Various computer makers have long introduced security solutions like fingerprint sensors that have been built into the computer itself (usually found in laptops), but these are hardly the most ergonomic solution. This is where HP comes in as the company has announced the HP USB Fingerprint Mouse.

Laptops are great for taking with you on the go if you need to work. However the problem is that because laptops are more powerful devices, they also consume battery faster than say a tablet, which means that usually a laptop probably wouldn’t last you more than a day before needing a recharge.

HP made an addition to the ZBook lineup not too long ago with the ZBook x360 and it’s back at it once again. All of the models in the lineup are getting a hardware refresh which primarily includes the Core i9 processors from Intel. The new chips are available for the HP Zbook x360, ZBook Studio, ZBook 15, and the ZBook 17.

HP is a major player in the Chromebook market and the company today launched its thinnest Chrome OS-powered convertible yet, the HP x360 14. It’s the successor to HP’s original x360 which was released last year and it has a 14 inch display instead of its predecessor’s 11. The device has a 360 degree hinge so it can be used in four different configurations.

HP makes some great PC products and the company’s latest one is bound to get your attention. It’s called the HP Spectre Folio and it doesn’t have a sleek aluminum body. This premium laptop is actually bonded with leather. It’s a convertible so the device can either be used as a conventional laptop or propped up in tablet or tent mode.

Printers serve a very specific function so many do not really think too much about how they look. However that doesn’t mean that they can’t be improved upon, which is something that HP is trying to do with its latest printer, the HP Tango in which not only has HP tried to reimagine what a printer should look like, but they have given it some smarts as well.

One of the problems usually associated with buying brand-name computers is that usually they’re not designed to be easily upgraded. This is because usually brand-name PCs come with cases customized for their needs, which also means that sometimes not all parts will fit the way you want. Plus there is also the added incentive of forcing customers to buy a new PC when it comes time to upgrade.

When it comes to choosing headphones, clearly sound quality is an important factor. However there are other factors to consider, such as comfort. This is important for those who plan on wearing them for extended periods of time, a problem that HP’s OMEN Mindframe headset should solve come this October.

HP today unveiled its new Omen 15 gaming laptop which will compete in the market against similar products from the likes of Razer, Gigabyte, ASUS, and others. HP’s Omen 15 has been a popular model and the latest iteration of this device is not only more refined than its predecessor, it’s also more powerful.
