HP TouchSmart IQ506 review

By Darren Gladstone, (pcadvisor.co.uk)

Read the full review

HP's TouchSmart IQ506 Desktop PC costs $1,500 in the US, and is expected to retail at around Â£1,099 inc VAT in the UK from August or September.

For the proposed premium price you get a classy design, the versatility to handle everyday tasks, and the ability to do some light multimedia lifting. The HP TouchSmart IQ506 doesn't have enough power to deal with more graphics-heavy activities. The Touch...

Svelte new design; large, touch-sensitive display; easy to use, touch-friendly software, a lot of wireless connectivity options; underbody keyboard light.

Single-point, Windows-based touch looks dated next to multitouch iPhone; slower than other all-in-ones in its price class.

HP's new-and-improved TouchSmart all-in-one PC refines the touch-based concept it introduced last year. Faster all-in-ones, and Apple's iPhone, make the TouchSmart seem a bit behind the times, but the convenient software and its kitchen-friendly...

The future of the home computer lies in making it easier for everyone to use. Central to this is the way we browse files and folders, or open, close and resize windows - areas that are today being seriously redeveloped with various types of multi-touch te...

Enter the HP TouchSmart computer with its touch-sensitive screen, now relaunched as two models. We tried the IQ506, the same size as the IQ504 but with slightly higher processor specs

"Can you believe a 4 yr old can figure this out."

Bottom line I have had this for less than 24 ...

Touchscreen is fantastic and anyone can use it.

I don't like how it doesn't have the upper end speed like iMac but, with that said I have not had a problem with the OS yet.

"Overall better than others with the added touch screen"

What the editor said in the video was totally...

has at least 2 cores for VM purposes, has 4gb of ram enough for more than 2 VM's to run at a time, video card is decent enough to do what most people want it to do and then some, it doesn't come with that idiot editor for cnet.

needs 8gb's ram, not AMD, needs a quad core for more VM's, needs a better cpu that has Intel or AMD's hardware virtualization.
