"The tech world was taken aback this week by the unexpected departure of HP CEO Enrique Lores, who left the device giant to head PayPal. But, according to industry experts, the company will fare well against this kind of shakeup as long as it is able to execute on AI PCs, show definitive ROI, differentiate with emerging edge use cases, and strike a balance between pricing and technology advances."
"There's been a lot of hype around AI PCs, and new technologies are arriving regularly, but enterprise adoption remained slow in 2025 due to questions around cost and ROI. HP has pushed hard into the market with its Copilot+ laptops, OmniBook X, EliteBook X, and OmniBook Ultra, powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite and Intel Core Ultra processors. Notably, the company recently showed off its EliteBook X G2 Series, with an expanded set of processor options, and has bet on keyboard-based PCs for hybrid workforces."
