The editors liked

  • Compact design
  • Builtin TV tuner
  • Useful Beats software
  • Curved
  • Minimalist design
  • Beats audio technology
  • Built in TV card
  • Full HD screen
  • Touchscreen interface will appeal to families
  • Capacious hard drive
  • Decent performance for office tasks
  • The pleasing display is one of the first things to sit up and take notice of. Its 23-inch full HD display looks great whatever the task. If you’re watching movies on it
  • You’ll find that’s when the HP Touchsmart 520-1130ea really shines. Colours are bright and sharp. The DVB-T tuner also lets you view Freeview TV channels to get even more from the HP Touchsmart 520-1130ea’s entertainment chops. S

The editors didn't like

  • Lessthanperfect screen and speakers
  • Poor performance for 3D games
  • Average keyboard
  • Touch no better than keyboard
  • Touch will be better on Win 8
  • Uninspiring design
  • Touchscreen is imprecise
  • Those looking for a powerful desktop PC would be advised to look elsewhere. While the HP Touchsmart 520-1130ea can handle all the basic tasks with ease
  • It still isn’t powerful enough to run the latest power-hungry games as well as others
  • And take on as much without a stutter or two.

  • USB 3,0, Large touch screen, Minimal bloatware, 1,5TB hard drive, 2-year warranty,
  • No HDMI in or out, No Blu-ray, Low powered integrated graphics,
  • The HP TouchSmart 520-1047c is a decent touch-oriented all-in-one desktop, but there are other systems in the same price range that beat it in terms of features. ...

  • The retail-only HP TouchSmart 520-1050y offers solid performance for its price, and has most of the features we look for in a midrange all-in-one
  • The lack of an HDMI input is inexcusable, but worse is the fact that you can get the same model for $50 less via HP.com
  • HP does shoppers a disservice with the inconsistent pricing between this otherwise decent retail-only desktop and the more affordable, identical model available via HP's Web site.

  • Smooth 2-input touchscreen, All-in-one design, Full HD
  • Slow graphics performance, No digital audio out
  • The TouchSmart 520 is a capable computer system for everyday tasks, but its touchscreen offers a better way to interact with your content. Simply point to, drag or tap your files to let the magic happen. It's a very decent home machine that should go down...

  • Decent size and performance for the price, Beats Audio does enhance the sound experience
  • No Bluetooth, Failure to innovate in the touch space, Infrared technology means multitouch is skittish, Magic Canvas interface is laggy when using touch
  • The TouchSmart 520 doesn't achieve anything that TouchSmarts before it haven't already. Still, unimpressive touch capability aside, it makes a decent all-in-one touch product worth checking out if the size and price fit your needs.

  • Abstract:  HP has more experience with touchscreen all-in-ones than anyone else, and it shows. Its latest Touchsmart is a tidy package with an innovative hinged design that's stable and easy to adjust, and the responsive screen picks up gestures quickly and smoothly...

  • Great performance, Good display and audio, Surprisingly accurate touch screen
  • Screen a little too reflective, Touch screen functionality not perfect
  • The HP TouchSmart 520 is a product of experience – a finely tuned, well polished device that splendidly handles its multimedia roots, boosting it with great hardware performances and a touchscreen that actually works well. It's a computer that works as ...

  • Performances processeur confortables pour un usage courant, Tuner TNT HD intégré + télécommande, Silencieux, Dalle contrastée, Clavier et souris de bonne qualité
  • Peu doué pour le jeu, Couleurs qui manquent de fidélité (delta E à 5,1), Pas de sortie vidéo
  • Si le HP TouchSmart 520-1020fr, ne rivalise avec les puissants iMac et Asus ET2700INTS au niveau des performances brutes et de l'équipement, il s'octroie un bon rapport puissance/prix. En pratique, il se révèle capable de satisfaire les amateurs de mul...
