At its latest HP Imagine 2026 event in New York, the company launched a wide range of new products and technologies, covering everything from high-performance workstations and AI PCs to gaming desktops and cross-device connectivity solutions. Here’s everything you need to know about them.

HP Doubles Down on AI PCs and Hybrid Work

Leading the lineup are HP’s new commercial PCs, including the EliteBook 6 G2q Next Gen AI PC, designed to deliver on-device AI performance while enabling seamless productivity across locations. HP also introduced HP IQ, a new platform designed to create a connected ecosystem across devices and workspaces. The idea is simple: your devices should work together intelligently, whether you’re at home, in the office, or on the move.

Complementing this is HP NearSense, a cross-device connectivity solution built with Google. It aims to enable smoother interoperability across devices, operating systems, and environments, something that’s becoming increasingly important in hybrid setups.

New Z Workstations Focus on AI and High-Performance Computing

For professionals working on demanding workloads, HP unveiled its next-gen Z Workstations, including the flagship Z8 Fury G6i. This machine is built for serious compute tasks like AI development, simulations, and visual effects, with support for up to four high-end GPUs and next-gen Intel processors. HP is also introducing a new chassis design that allows larger GPU installations without compromising thermal performance.

On the mobile side, HP refreshed its ZBook lineup, including the ZBook X G2i and ZBook 8 G2i. These are designed to deliver workstation-level performance in a portable form factor, targeting engineers, designers, and creators who need power on the go.

New HyperX OMEN Gaming Desktops

HP’s gaming division also had a major presence at the event, with new HyperX OMEN desktops and software updates. The new OMEN MAX 45L is aimed at high-end gamers, featuring top-tier CPUs, GPUs, and advanced cooling for sustained performance. Meanwhile, the OMEN 35L offers similar capabilities at a more accessible price point.

On the software side, HP is expanding OMEN AI, which uses machine learning to automatically optimize performance. In some cases, HP claims up to a 50% FPS improvement in supported games. The OMEN Gaming Hub is also getting new AI-powered features, including integrations with platforms like HeyGen and Voicemod, allowing users to create content, customize voices, and enhance communication during gameplay
