HP TouchSmart 300 review

At 20 inches, it's a bit small to serve as your primary media centre, but the HP TouchSmart 300 costs more than similarly sized budget all-in-one PCs (20 inches or smaller). It also outperforms them all, scoring 98 on the WorldBench 6 test suite. This...

That being said, if you're in the market for a touch-friendly all-in-one and want something with a 20-inch screen size, you would do well to consider the HP TouchSmart 300. If you're up for spending a bit more, users less interested in touch might want...

HP - TouchSmart 300-1230

The latest edition of HP's TouchSmart 300 is a solidly built all-in-one desktop PC with a 20in, 16:9 widescreen touch-sensitive display. Just under three inches thick, it sits on two stubby legs, with a third leg ...

HP has packed a number of features into this all-in-one, including a TV tuner plus remote control. The TouchSmart software is slick too, but you do pay for all of this - the £799 price tag seems a bit steep given the 20in screen size. Still, this is a...

HP TouchSmart 300-1060a desktop PC

An HP all-in-one PC equipped with a touch screen

Good touch experience within TouchSmart software, 802.11n Wi-Fi, decent performance

Poor accuracy in standard Windows 7 interface, display isn't suited to precise touches, bloatware

The TouchSmart 300-1060a is one of HP's most affordable touch-screen PCs, and it's a reasonable choice if you want to use the TouchSmart interface. For normal Windows use, however, the lower resolution and smaller display make it a poor alternative to...

HP TouchSmart 300-1120 review: HP TouchSmart 300-1120

HP TouchSmart 300-1120

Best-in-class touch software.

Small screen and underwhelming PC components for the price; slow performance

On first inspection the HP TouchSmart 300-1120 seems like a capable enough all-in-one, but it loses a lot of appeal once you compare it with others on the market. If you want an all-in-one PC for the kitchen counter, this system may work for you. For...

HP TouchSmart 300 All-in-One PC

HP has churned out a number of multitouch-capable machines under the TouchSmart line, and the 20-inch TouchSmart 300 is its latest effort.

Great general performance ; HDTV tuner

Sluggish custom software ; Weak graphics performance

TouchSmart style and design shines, but sluggish custom software hampers an otherwise solid package.

HP TouchSmart 300-1020 review: HP TouchSmart 300-1020

HP TouchSmart 300-1020

Strong touch-based recipe software, attractive and capable enough as a small-scale home entertainment device.

Other all-in-one PCs in its price range have larger screens; missing a few features we liked about the higher-end TouchSmart 600; outperformed by cheaper midtower desktops.

With a small screen for its price, we can't justify the TouchSmart 300 as a home entertainment all-in-one PC. It's also slower than more affordable midtowers, so you can spend less for more productivity. This leaves HP's touch-based software as the...

HP TouchSmart 300-1007

The HP TouchSmart 300-1007 is a 20-inch, touch-enabled all-in-one PC that's perfect for families sharing a single computer.

Compact All in one Form factor. Added HP software is useful. Sensitive touch screen. Kitchen friendly. Wall mountable. Wireless keyboard and mouse. Two year warranty.

Screen isn't full 1080p HD. Only 60-day subscription to Internet Security. No TV or video inputs. Monitor attracts smudges. Blu-ray not available.
