Expert review by : Trusted Reviews (trustedreviews.com)
HP's TouchSmart range now offers Core i5 power, but can it do enough overall to garner a recommendation?

Stunning touchscreen, let down by limited gaming potential
Expert review by : Nate Ralph, pcworld.com (techadvisor.co.uk)
Competition is stiff in the category of big-screen all-in-one PCs. TV tuners and large hard drives are becoming standard features, as manufacturers attempt to displace televisions in studio flats and cramped bedrooms with high-definition-capable,...
As is generally the case with all-in-ones, you'll pay more for the HP TouchSmart 600-1255qd and the other members of the HP TouchSmart 600 Quad line than you would for a less compact machine. If you still aren't sold on Windows 7's touch-functionality,...

With Windows 7, Microsoft has built support for multitouch gestures directly into the operating system. And though using your fingers to tap, flick, and pinch your way around probably won't replace the humble mouse anytime soon, HP has almost three...
Even with Windows 7, touch remains an entertaining luxury rather than a killer feature; and if you can do without it, you can get a machine for a lot less cash with features and specs that are otherwise comparable. But if you're ready to reach out and...

Overview:
The HP TouchSmart 600 PC has brought up a lot of modifications and upgradations in terms of working and outlook. With its rather minimal design, HDMI to support game consoles, and a cover hidden array of ports and connection jacks, the device manages...

A good touchscreen PC that looks expensive when compared to the crowd.
It's this stiff competition that proves the HP's undoing. The TouchSmart isn't at all bad, but when others at both ends of the scale are better, there's no reason to settle for it.
Expert review by : Alistair Dabbs (reghardware.co.uk)
An expensive, but highly desirable, all-in-one PC that really is a joy to use.
The remote has a good range of well-spaced and clearly labelled buttons, including those for recording TV onto hard disk, along with a big central button for returning immediately to the top level of Windows Media Centre. Given the choice of operating...

Competition is stiff in the category of big-screen all-in-one PCs. TV tuners and large hard drives are becoming standard features, as manufacturers attempt to displace televisions in dorm rooms and cramped bedrooms with high-definition-capable,...
Impressive audio performance ; Extensive media connectivity ; Strong general performance
Middling Webcam quality
HP's latest TouchSmart packs a punch, delivering strong media-theater functionality and the line's signature TouchSmart style.
Expert review by : Harry McCracken (pcworld.com)
1080p screen, Blu-ray drive, HDTV tuner ; Excellent custom touch-enabled applications
Weak graphics performance ; Limited upgradability
This third-generation TouchSmart PC is boosted by Windows 7's gesture support, but HP's custom multitouch software is even more impressive.
Expert review by (pcmag.com)
The HP TouchSmart 600-1055 PC ($1,599 list) is HP's third generation of TouchSmart PCs for the home. HP pioneered touch computing for the home and each successive generation has gotten better. The latest model combines HP's Touch experience with...
Blu-ray player. True 1080p HD. Ambient Lighting. Bluetooth and 802.11 b/g/n. Minimal bloatware. Kitchen friendly. Very adjustable. Wireless everything but power and TV. HDMI and game inputs
Only 60-day subscription to Norton Internet Security. Some competitors offer Quad Core at this price point. $100-200 more expensive than rivals
The HP TouchSmart 600-1055 PC is HP's top-of-the-line Windows 7 PC that shows how touch screen interfaces are going mainstream.
