The Elite Folio is a new convertible laptop with a 13.5-inch 1920 x 1080 display at 3:2 aspect ratio. Its design lets users pull the screen forward to rest between the keys and trackpad or lie flat for a more tablet-like usage.

Other features include a webcam with a 76-degree field of view and built-in privacy shutter, dual microphone array, and high-definition Bang & Olufsen speakers. The Elite Folio comes with a Slim Active Pen for markup, notes, and more. Pricing and availability is unclear at this point.

HP also introduced its Elite Wireless Earbuds which it says are “the world’s most advanced earbuds for a collaboration”. Details here include personalized audio tuning, adjustable noise cancellation, and presets for sound situations.

Designed with collaboration in mind, the earbuds seamlessly switch from a PC conference call to music on a phone using a dedicated app. Look for these in April.
