HP’s smallest and lightest AI PC, a claim HP can make based on their current range of PCs with AI integration, is the HP EliteBoard G1a Next Gen AI PC
It also includes HP Wolf Security for Business to defend against emerging quantum threats
HP has unveiled the HP EliteBoard G1a Next Gen AI PC, a CES 2026 Innovation Award Honoree and the world’s first full AI PC built into a keyboard. To complement this evolution of the desk, HP also introduced the newest HP Series 7 Pro 4K Monitor.
Guayente Sanmartin, Senior Vice President and Division President, Commercial Systems & Displays Solutions at HP Inc. commented:
“Work is being redesigned in real time—where it happens, how it happens, and what tools employees need to stay productive. HP’s focus is to remove the friction and complexity that slows people down and turn emerging AI into a real advantage. The HP EliteBoard G1a Next Gen AI PC does exactly that by delivering next-generation local AI power in a keyboard-sized form factor that moves at the speed of modern work.”
Breaking Free from the Traditional Desk Experience
As modern working becomes more fluid and cross-functional, professionals are seeking flexible setups and hardware that adapts to them. This shift is reshaping the desk itself into something modular, mobile, and personalised, creating demand for devices that can move seamlessly across workspaces without sacrificing performance.
The HP EliteBoard G1a Next-Gen AI PC is built directly into a sleek, ultra-compact keyboard, complete withh Copilot+ PC, and an ultra-thin 12 mm profile that reclaims the desk as a minimalist, clutter-free workspace. Dual mics and speakers are packaged in a sleek keyboard that weighs less than half the weight of a traditional notebook PC at 750g and easily connects to any size display.
Delivering over 50 TOPS NPU, depending on how the user configures it, it is ready to go wherever work happens, powered by an AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 Series processor.
The user has the choice for an optional built-in battery, which would need to be configured at the time of purchase, and the freedom of the EliteBoard’s unique form factor with desktop-level flexibility empowers professionals to truly personalise their setup.
Included is HP Wolf Security for Business, a hardware-enforced defense against firmware attacks and quantum threats, which is supported by full endpoint security and protected with a tethered, lockable cable.
Availability
The HP EliteBoard G1a Next Gen AI PC is currently expected to be available from March 2026, however region timings will vary.
