This review first appeared in issue 359 ofPC Pro.
Does it feel too light, look too plasticky?
Have corners been cut that make it horrible to use?
The stand includes 100mm of height adjustment
In short, does it feel cheap?
So it was with an inward sigh of relief that I started assembling theHPAll-in-One 27.
That may sound trivial, but it shows the attention to detail often lacking inbudget laptopsandPCs.
The 1080p camera built into the top bezel is a nice touch
Sadly, that isnt reflected in any kind of smell.
Another nice touch is the 1080pcamerabuilt into the top bezel.
A basicwireless keyboardand mouse set come in the box.
This leaves three USB-A ports free, with a solitary USB-C port keeping it company.
Especially when the suppliedSSDoffers only 512GB of storage.
Still, if you have a 1080p screen knocking around it could be useful.
Not great, but at typical viewing distances I was never irritated by a lack of sharpness.
Their only weakness is lack of volume, but theres enough oomph to fill a study.
Some might criticize this PCs power, too, as it includes a relatively timid Core i7-1355U.
I ended up enjoying my time with the HP All-in-One 27.
At this price, however, Im willing to overlook such flaws.
We also rated the best budget phones.
What is a hands on review?
It may be just a few moments, or a few hours.
