HP announces world's first NEO:LED All-In-One — it's obviously gorgeous looking, but here's why we love it

All-In-One (AIO) Desktops hardly made an appearance at last year's Consumer Electronics Show, but thankfully, that isn't the case with CES 2026.

Amid HP's wide range of monitors, laptops, and other tech, the OEM revealed the HP OmniStudio X 27, a powerful Microsoft Copilot+ AIO PC designed with several configurations and, notably, the first AIO to feature a NEO:LED display.

This desktop AIO provides everything you need for your PC in one relatively compact purchase, including a keyboard, mouse, speakers, and webcam. Not to mention, it's especially suited for creators thanks to its excellent screen and powerful processors.

But what is NEO:LED, and what does that mean for the HP OmniStudio X AIO's 27-inch display? Let's take a look at the AIO desktop's specs and discuss.

If you've never heard of a NEO:LED display, that's because this is a newer IPS display technology created by LG. The newness of this panel type is what makes the HP OmniStudio X 27 AIO so unique and compelling, since this is the very first AIO to feature this screen type.

The big takeaway is that NEO:LED screens offer deeper blacks, a wider color range, and crisper details than typical IPS displays, all while consuming less power, too.

Indeed, HP states that this anti-glare AIO display produces 100% Adobe RGB and 100% DCI-P3, which are impressive results you'd expect from an OLED panel. Plus, it offers a 120Hz refresh rate, which seems to be the new standard for non-gaming monitors in 2026, rather than the previous 60Hz or 90Hz standards. It conveniently offers auto HDR switching as well.

Processor-wise, the AIO utilizes Intel's latest CPU (central processing unit) along with NVIDIA's entry-level RTX 5050 GPU (graphics processing unit) for gaming, making it perfect for creative workflows. Several configuration options, ranging from 16GB to 2TB RAM and 512GB SSD to 2TB SSD, mean you can find the build that works best for your specific needs.

As part of being an AIO, this device not only comes with an HP 675C mouse and keyboard combo, but also has quad speakers and a tiltable 5MP IR camera with built-in microphones. With all of these features, you'll have everything you need to surf the web, stream shows, listen to music, and attend video meetings.

To improve the experience even further, this AI computer supports helpful features like multi-screen management, adaptive color and audio, and more. It can detect your face to wake when you approach, lock when you leave, and even offers onlooker detection to dim the screen if it senses someone else is looking at the display.

It's even compatible with Thunderbolt Share, Intel's creation that allows two devices to transfer files or use the same mouse and keyboard, simply by connecting two compatible computers with a Thunderbolt cable.

Fitted with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 6.0, and a healthy range of ports including two Thunderbolt 4 Type-C, five USB-A ports, an HDMI 2.0, headphone jack, and RJ45 port, the OmniStudio X 27 AIO provides sufficient connections for your various accessories and other devices.

The HP OmniStudio X 27 AIO is expected to be available for purchase at the HP website this week. It has a starting $1,499.99 MSRP.
