HP Malaysia has introduced a fresh lineup of devices for the local market through its HP Elevate 2026 event, bringing together a mix of business laptops, workstations, gaming hardware, a compact keyboard-style PC, and a new multifunction LaserJet Pro printer.
The announcement covers seven main products, showing HP's broader push into AI-ready computing, hybrid work, professional performance, and smarter office productivity. While some of the new devices are clearly aimed at enterprise and corporate users, others target creators, gamers, mobile professionals, and small office environments.
A New Lineup Built Around Business, AI And Performance
The latest HP portfolio reflects how personal computing is changing. Laptops are no longer just about portability, and desktops are no longer limited to traditional tower designs. More users now expect stronger security, AI-assisted features, flexible form factors, better graphics performance, and machines that can support both office work and demanding creative workloads.
At HP Elevate 2026, the company introduced products across several categories, including:
• Enterprise notebooks
• Convertible business laptops
• Mobile and desktop workstations
• A gaming laptop
• A compact keyboard-shaped PC
• A multifunction LaserJet Pro printer
The lineup also shows HP's continued emphasis on AI-capable processors, workstation-grade graphics, business security, and automation features designed to reduce repetitive tasks.
EliteBook X Flip G2i And EliteBook X G2i For Business Users
One of the key business-focused models announced is the HP EliteBook X Flip G2i, a convertible laptop designed for professionals who need flexibility in how they work. As a 2-in-1 device, it can be used like a standard notebook or folded into different modes for presentations, note-taking, meetings, and mobile productivity.
The laptop comes with Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors, also known as Panther Lake, and includes HP Wolf Security. This makes it more suitable for corporate users who require built-in protection against modern security threats.
HP also introduced the EliteBook X G2i, which is the more traditional non-convertible version. It shares similar processor options and is positioned as a premium business notebook for users who prefer a standard laptop form factor.
These models are clearly aimed at organisations and professionals who prioritise security, performance, and manageability.
OmniBook Ultra 14 Targets General Productivity Users
For users who want a more mainstream notebook, HP also announced the OmniBook Ultra 14. This 14-inch laptop is designed for general everyday use, making it suitable for productivity, multitasking, study, entertainment, and hybrid work.
It also features Intel Core Ultra Series 3 processors, although HP did not provide detailed configuration options during the announcement.
The OmniBook branding appears to sit closer to the consumer and general productivity market, making it different from the more business-oriented EliteBook models. For users who want a modern HP laptop without needing enterprise-level features, the OmniBook Ultra 14 may be the more practical option.
EliteBoard G1a Brings A Different Take On The Desktop PC
One of the more unusual products in the lineup is the HP EliteBoard G1a. Technically, it is a desktop PC, but it does not look like a normal desktop tower or mini PC. Instead, it is designed in the shape of a keyboard, with the main computing hardware built inside.
The device is powered by AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processors, making it part of HP's AI-ready computing push. Its compact design could appeal to space-limited workstations, shared office environments, front-desk counters, and setups where a traditional desktop box may not be ideal.
However, the compact form factor also comes with some limitations. The EliteBoard G1a only includes two USB-C ports, with one of them supporting USB4. HP also offers an optional 32Wh battery, allowing either USB-C port to provide 65W of power. There is also an option for an internally secured secondary USB4 port, depending on configuration.
It is not the kind of desktop PC most users are used to, but it could make sense in specific business environments where space, simplicity, and integrated design matter more than large numbers of ports.
HyperX OMEN 15 Brings HP's Gaming Focus Into The Lineup
On the gaming side, HP introduced the HyperX OMEN 15, a new gaming laptop designed for users who want stronger graphics performance in a portable machine.
The laptop can be configured with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU. Processor options appear to be wide, with HP mentioning at least 13 possible configurations, including next-generation Intel and AMD choices.
For display options, users can choose between a QHD+ 180Hz IPS panel or a 3K 120Hz OLED display with HDR support. This gives buyers the choice between a faster refresh rate for competitive gaming or a higher-quality OLED display for richer visuals.
The keyboard also includes 4-zone RGB lighting and an 8000Hz polling rate, which should appeal to gamers who want more responsive input. HP is also including OMEN AI, a feature that can automatically optimise performance settings for individual games with one click.
This makes the HyperX OMEN 15 one of the more consumer-focused devices in the new HP Malaysia lineup.
ZBook X G2i For Mobile Professionals And Creators
For professional users who need workstation-class performance in a portable format, HP announced the ZBook X G2i. This is a 16-inch mobile workstation aimed at engineers, designers, creators, developers, and professionals who work with demanding applications.
The ZBook X G2i supports up to Intel Core Ultra 9 processors, optional NVIDIA RTX Pro Blackwell graphics, and up to 128GB of memory.
This type of machine is not intended for casual users. Instead, it is built for heavier workloads such as 3D modelling, rendering, simulation, design software, advanced content creation, data processing, and professional visual work.
For companies that need powerful machines but still want mobility, the ZBook X G2i fits into that high-performance professional category.
Z8 Fury G6i Offers Serious Desktop Workstation Power
For even heavier workloads, HP also introduced the Z8 Fury G6i, a desktop tower workstation designed for users who need maximum performance and expandability.
The workstation comes with Intel Xeon processors, supports up to 2TB of DDR5 ECC memory, and can be configured with NVIDIA RTX Pro Blackwell graphics. HP also offers an extended chassis option, allowing the system to support physically larger components.
This model is clearly aimed at industries and users that need serious computing power, such as animation studios, engineering firms, research environments, AI development, high-end rendering, and data-intensive workloads.
The Z8 Fury G6i is not a mainstream desktop. It is a professional workstation built for demanding environments where reliability, scalability, and raw performance are critical.
LaserJet Pro 4112fdw Adds AI Features To Office Printing
HP also announced the LaserJet Pro 4112fdw, a multifunction printer that supports printing, scanning, copying, and faxing.
While those are expected features for an office printer, HP is putting more attention on the printer's AI capabilities. The LaserJet Pro 4112fdw can assist with document summarisation, automatic file naming, and email subject line generation.
These features are designed to make document handling faster and less repetitive, especially in offices that process many scanned documents or digital records.
The printer also comes with quantum-resistant security protections, showing HP's focus on future-ready security even in office printing hardware.

HP's 2026 Lineup Shows A Wider Push Into AI-Ready Computing
HP Malaysia's latest product launch is more than just a routine hardware refresh. The lineup shows how the company is positioning itself across multiple areas: enterprise mobility, AI PCs, gaming, professional workstations, compact computing, and smarter office printing.
The inclusion of Intel Core Ultra, AMD Ryzen AI, NVIDIA RTX Pro Blackwell graphics, OMEN AI, and AI-powered printer features suggests that HP is building its 2026 portfolio around the idea that AI support will become a normal part of business and consumer devices.
For Malaysian buyers, the new lineup offers a wide range of choices depending on their needs. Business users get secure EliteBook options, gamers get the HyperX OMEN 15, professionals get ZBook and Z8 workstation choices, and offices get a LaserJet Pro printer with smarter document handling.
Overall, HP's new Malaysia lineup gives a clear picture of where modern computing is heading: more AI-ready, more specialised, and more closely designed around the way people actually work, create, and play today.
