HP has unveiled its Elite Slice desktop – a small, modular commercial desktop with a wireless design.

The Elite Slice has a form factor of 16.5cm x 3.3cm x 16.5cm, weighs 1.04kg, and offers stackable modules – such as the Audio Module or Optical Disk Drive Module.

The wireless design allows for a clean work environment, said HP, with the device powered from a display via a USB 3.1 Type-C cable.

Users can choose different covers when configuring the PC and expand the device with additional modules. The covers are:

  • HP Collaboration Cover: turns the desktop into a Microsoft Skype for Business phone.
  • HP Wireless Charging Cover: wireless charging starts automatically upon contact.
  • HP Audio Module: spoken word tuning makes call experiences crisp and clear with audio tuned by Bang & Olufsen.
  • HP ODD Module: back up or archive files and access legacy content on CDs or DVDs.

Other features include:

  • An optional fingerprint sensor.
  • HP Sure Start with Dynamic Protection, a self-healing BIOS-level protection.
  • 6th Generation Intel Core i7.
  • 360-degree dual fan pipe ring for cooling.
  • Ethernet port, Wi-Fi, HDMI and DisplayPort adapters.

The HP Elite Slice starts from $699 and is expected to be available in September.
