HP TouchSmart IQ800: First Look Review

[eyeforeye5]

Gunna get one of these in 4 months. I know it will help with photoshop and gaming- also hopeful that it will make a difference in my movie editing. I also feel like i"m doing it less justice not mentioning virtual turntables, AutoCAD presentations and making your friends jealous as fuck.

[millioneon]

i have that computer im using it right now!!

[03armeen03]

I'm now on my HP TouchSmart .

[HabbowScams]

@03armeen03 Same, just got it 2 days ago. 1TB Hard Drive, 5GB RAM, its so freaking epic for gaming.

[alwfi2003]

ماشاء الله يالله يارب اشتريه

[MexicanOrozco96]

i have that computer im using it right now!!

[djcountry1985]

its so nice but it cost nearly 1,000 dollars. other computers these days cost around 400

[DJRodneyTD]

I was playing with one of these at Best Buy, So awesome, I want one.

[G58]

What an utter piece of shit. I can't think of anything more retarded than standing there and dragging stuff around a screen with my finger. And it isn't even touch smart! It's actually touch dumb. Lasers??? It's a normal screen with lasers in front!! How is this in any way progress?

[ItsAlban]

how u turn the light on i feel it but have no clue turn on lol

[Acceptable76]

Omg. I know these come with windows 7 now, but windows vista looks really cool on this machine.

I went to Office Depot and started playing with this GIGANTIC $1300 HP Touchscreen. So much fucking fun XD

[loladin08]

The color of the lamp is changable!

[thephoenix4ever]

Eh I wound up getting this for gaming and its not bad being that it isn't all that designed for it. (IQ 526)

The all-in-one definitely clears up a lot of space on my desk though :)

[LuckyFeathers23]

looks pretty good, but Vista sucks. So glad I swtched to Windows 7

[georgekizzie]

touchsmat or touchsmart

[thephoenix4ever]

@georgekizzie

Touchsmart, lol!

[TheDazzz11]

ipad...even a reg mac is better!!!!

[cgnauta]

@TheDazzz11

Ipad is only a bigger Iphone without phone capabilities

[ryan97303]

@TheDazzz11 wow... your a dumbass

[0cujo0]

I got HP Touchsmart IQ800 foe Christmas.

Windows 7 and touchscreen awesomeness...

[mikey472]

I recently made the switch to a MacBook Pro. I wouldn't "touch" another PC. It looks to awkward to expand/enlarge screens at that angle. The mac can do that on the mousepad. If you like the "touch" feature, get the ipad for 1/3 the cost.

[braddudeguy]

I agree!! MacBooks, MacBook Pros, iMacs, ANYTHING Apple makes is far better than this.

[UCABearBone]

why are you comparing an ipad to a touch smart computer? ipad, other than being a horrible mistake, are of no comparison, its basically an enlarged iphone w/no GPS, (unless you want to worry about formatting) no camera, and the list goes on, if you want a "Desktop", with only one chord that plugs into the wall, then get this, i like some apple things, but the ipad was a mistake, HP also has the equivalent to that, but with much better features, HP ALL THE WAY!

[LuckyFeathers23]

@UCABearBone *High five*

[logic8364]

i got this wen it first came out

[yoitsyourdawg911]

@logic8364 is it a good computer. i want to buy it but i either want a sony or this hp. so help me out please

[slowlearner12]

me too

[logic8364]

i got this computer its the best im on oovoo 247 video chatting wit my frends

[quest8899]

Whats better this or an apple imac?

[catCRAAAZY]

EASILY this. Everyone says this is the superior computer. iMac is stupid and complicated and extremely overpriced :) x

[jman882]

cat CRAAZY. your saying the imac is complicated look at this thing its going to break easilly

[UCABearBone]

this

[ShA67aH]

LoVe it

LaRgE iphone

[ChArLiE3217]

looks like a really nice computer but I would go with 27 inch iMac if I wanted a really big screen and a good computer. also, apple is planning a touch screen tablet and possibly a touch screen imac

[catCRAAAZY]

ew iPhone (<3) by Apple is the only Mac product which isn't over complicated, inconveniant to use, and terribly overpriced. The technology is brilliant, but I preffer this comp by Windows

[refresh967]

@ChArLiE3217 no its an ipad and i have one.

[lovelydiva06]

I wonder if they will upgrade the hp software on the older hp touchsmart pcs like the updated hp software on the new touchsmart pcs

[Sherwin930]

1500 pounds is insane, my friends in england ebay this a pound is roughly $1.50 which means ur paying 2250 dollars.

[24gymnast4life]

i have this computer :] love it

[malcolmisk00l]

[o8wattsa]

could i run a game on this? like call of duty 4?

[24gymnast4life]

umm im not sure cause im a girl so i dont usually play video gAmes

[o8wattsa]

oh right. doesn't matter :^D

[24gymnast4life]

lol

[PiiNKTEAM]

Luckky. I hope i get it this christmas! One question: Can you also use a mouse on it?

[24gymnast4life]

yea there is a mouse and i use it for the small things tht my fingers are to fat to click

[PiiNKTEAM]

Lol i know. Just like a touch screen phone :) but a mouse will always be in good use .. you know sometimes :)

[24gymnast4life]

exactly lol and when the guy in this VIDEO

[24gymnast4life]

shows a mouse ...thts the mouse

[PiiNKTEAM]

Lmao aww :) thats amazinggg. Thank you!

[24gymnast4life]

ur welcome lol and actually there not fat at all but they are to big to click the tiny things...u will see if u get it lol

[izurz]

aah man is should have waited for the 800, oh well the iq 506 is good too =p

[filip505]

so cool

[jamie9230]

I wish Apple would make a touch-screen comp. The touch is too tiny!

[DC200560]

The Touch is not tiny. It does what it was made to do exceptionally well.

I'm with you on the touch screen Mac, though. I'd love to see an Apple tablet PC running a full version of OS X Snow Leopard.

[alexpap20]

i got 525 recently and it doesnt seem to have a difference except the screen size .. its a great pc though

[princejoffey]

i was going to get the imac but now i change my mind because of all of the reviws an unboxings

[sergd415]

Same here man i wanted an imac for a while becuase i have this shitty ass pc and then i heard about this,this rapes imac xD

[Lolmasteraxe12]

@princejoffey get one there better, a touch computer? fucking hell. its a pile of wank

[davisthuy]

wats the differance between iq 500 and iq 800 cause i hav iq 500

[keelsies00]

Screen size?

[Xend54]

ima commenting on a touchsmart rite now!

[Crossrider92]

1:25 -1:27

sweet *-*

^^

[millball]

lmao :P

[15stephan]

does anyone think the price will go down by christmas??? and if possible if some one could recommend me a better desktop pc.

[wrfrk313]

give it about 5 years and it'll be common.

[sc0rpi0Xladii84]

if you're a student you can get discount.. trust me it's worth it!

[drumzstix666]

Can someone help me decide? Between:

HP IQ 800 (top of the line) vs. VAIO RT (top line),

-price is not a factor

-VAIO performance is better

-But DAMN the touch feature is really catchy 4 me!

-i just need a new desktop but it has to be useful!

[TheSib]

Sure, I can help... Flip a coin.

And, if price isn't a factor, get both!

Glad I could help.

[SamWycombe]

love how they're upgrading the IQ500.....brill idea, just the previous model didn't seem up to scratch.....

One thing I'd like to have is Windows 7 with that PC as standard. Blu-Ray doesn't bother me in the slightest.....

[zubelerr]

can you play games on it

[hollocast]

yes you can play games on it

[RareJj7]

let's say... crysis, can you run crysis on it?

Or even better, oblivion??

And let's say you bought it and customized maxed out from hp

[wriddler]

i jizzed in my pants when i first saw this pc

[chacesaidso]

we mounted it up on our kitchen wall, its perfect for leaving a message to family. watch movies and tv. perfect pc that i have ever bought

[15stephan]

can u play cd rom and internet games on it easily?

[HARDCOREGAMERs1]

0:20 / 2:03

[Xarieus]

Lol Haitch Pee... its Aitch Pee

[globemc2]

Nah I say Haitch Pee too... Cmon guys know that everyone doesn't speak the same...

[dancingurlie]

I loveee the keyboard!! this is so cool!

[bigz008]

drawring lol

[kemando12]

so i cant use this with XP

LAME!

[yer4595]

why the fuck would you want xp, you have just been using xp for so long that you think its better

[TheWorldofJoe]

um...well you just said that lbs is not currency. i was just telling you that it is in Britain...

[josecamp45]

apple should have mad this

[bunnyluv41]

That's the beauty of competition! :-)

[girlsdrinkfeck]

yes but apple r shit and they didnt , but theyll it copy soon anyway

[Booshibonton]

The framerate's dropping all over... hope it's just the video :/

[powillop]

looks really nice, i want one, but dont have the money

i love the way he says hp

[ValisX]

it would be nice if they would release a limited edition 30-40+ inch screen

[mitsui811]

i love to watch porn in that screen

[SFNeverMore]

GAY

[lovelydiva06]

i want it its very nice and its priced reasonably too cause honestly i thought it would be $2500 or more

[girlsdrinkfeck]

he said £1500 , not dollars

[lovelydiva06]

okay, but i was saying i thought the hp touchsmart would be priced $2500 or more in US dollars but its not, which means i may be able to afford one

[Atheyst]

He said lbs not euros. its about 1k - 1500 usd.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

lbs ? lbs is a measurement in weight not currency

[TheWorldofJoe]

in Britain pounds is their currency. They use metric.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

i know that , whats your point ?

[rAnDoMnEsSbOii]

POUNDS ARE BRITISH MONEY DUMB ASS

[girlsdrinkfeck]

u cannot read can you ?

[rAnDoMnEsSbOii]

your mom cant read because i blew all over her face last night

[girlsdrinkfeck]

"mom" insults eh , so you must be a nigger , the failed attempt of an insult created by a person with a low IQ that cant read , youre a chav at least , i bet u think youre the king of the council estate and your mum is a benefit fruad slag that makes the credit crunch even worse with her drug habits

[rAnDoMnEsSbOii]

uhh i got news for u nerds arent cool. its like comparing an american blond chick to a europian chick.

[girlsdrinkfeck]

nerds arent cool ? lol ok , we have more money and success than u chavs , so we have better things in life which attract the females that arent infected with immigrant sex organs, enjoy your poverty , happy credit crunch xmas ;) oh AND WITHOUT NERDS U WOULDNT BE ON HERE, NERDS RULE THE WORLD , PEOPLE LIKE U AT THE BOTTOM R JUST OUR ANT SOLDIERS RUNNING AROUND DOING THE JOBS WE DONT WANT SUCH AS CLEANING TOILETS R FILLING SUPERMARKET SHELFS , ;)

[rAnDoMnEsSbOii]

its weird how nerds are really smart, but their not smart enough to figure out how gay they are

[girlsdrinkfeck]

as gay as spelling boy as boii ?

[a100Bhp]

You sir are a fucking Moron.

[rAnDoMnEsSbOii]

sir? stop proving my point

[bostjanzup]

nerds are important today but noone wants to be one cause they have no chicks (msn doesnt counts) , bad childhood (they are isolated), and probobly not much fun (playing games isnt the REAL fun)

[girlsdrinkfeck]

u can be a nerd and have a bird u nkow :S , im a nerd and im socialable and well toned , i have many inteerests , computers, music , clubbing , pubbing , and social networking , going gym etc :)

[bostjanzup]

well youre not even nerd

[girlsdrinkfeck]

nope , im a geek , but a geek wit ha social life :P

[bostjanzup]

we have different definitions of geek, 'cause we live in different parts of the world I assume

[fenxiao166]

有一点点卡啊

[MyStormVideos]

worth 800.00 other wise junk

[pogthegrea]

i was playing with one of the original ones, i had so much fun and wanted one for my self

the only downside is that its running Windows Vista which gives me nothing but problems and stress

lets all hope that apple does a touch screen iMac or something similar

that will be a great PC, hope it does well in sales!!!

=)

[MAdEyUlO0kx3]

y r there so many touchsmarts iq(numbers) which is the best touchsmart?

[RandomentalTV]

lol the latest one?

[MAdEyUlO0kx3]

which is? lol

[mehmetyavuz1977]

:)))))))))

[izurz]

i have this computer and i have to say im glade i bought it. Its blazing fast, sleek and sexy, fun and has a huge screen. this computer is more durable than a tower pc. it never over heats. good think i didnt get the sony vaio one :-)

[TouchSmart]

Blu-ray drive is not standard, it only comes on higher-end models.

[str0m]

touch feature of the iq800 doesnt look as smooth as it is on the iphone.

epic fail

[eldukedrino]

FAIL???

how much do u think it would cost if they did??

no one could afford it then..

i've used this device in the local tech store

and it's an epic success..

[str0m]

still epic fail :D

[PwnageFrank]

oops srry bout that, i was thinking of the older model from this year!

[Shortstop333]

For the Americans wondering that's about $2,700 US Dollars.

[PwnageFrank]

no, it costs $1500 in the states

[eldukedrino]

eurepean models normaly comes with more feats and specs
