Fit more of what you love into your creative process with the 34-inch, height-adjustable display; the wider display with its 21:9 ratio micro-edge display⁰¹ reduces time wasted in scrolling or switching to different windows and allows you to focus your full attention on a single task.

The Perfect Companion for Your Hybrid Life: The HP 11 inch Tablet PC
The HP 11 inch Tablet PC is a thin and light device optimized for touch and designed for productivity and creativity on the go. Share your experiences in real time using the world’s first tablet with rotatable camera²⁶ and world’s first tablet with 13 MP front camera,²⁷ which allows users to go from selfie mode to a world-view mode in an instant, or even to the desktop view for real-time sharing during video calls. The company’s first Windows 11 tablet PC allows you to leverage Windows 11 Snap Layouts in both landscape and portrait mode using the innovative built-in kickstand to view content, edit between two apps, and share content while on a video call.
