£1837.66 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
Honestly, this is priced like a “proper” business thin client, but it sounds a bit over-specified for what most people actually use thin clients for. With an Intel Celeron-class setup and local storage, the real question is whether your use case is genuinely cloud/VDI-heavy (and stable) — because in most offices the bottleneck is the network and the session host, not the client. If you’re expecting it to feel like a mini laptop for local work, you’ll be disappointed, and £1,531 ex-VAT is hard to justify versus cheaper thin-client equivalents that do the same job just fine.
Who *should* buy it: teams rolling out HP’s ThinPro environments at scale where device management and predictable imaging matter, and where you’ve already got solid Wi‑Fi coverage (or you’ll use Ethernet) and reliable VDI/RDS backends. It’s also sensible if you specifically want an HP ThinPro Silver standardised fleet. Who should *not* buy it: small businesses or departments with mixed workloads, anyone who’s doing a lot locally (spreadsheets, creative apps, heavy browser tabs offline), or buyers looking for value per seat — because for that money you can usually get “good enough” thin clients plus more budget for the network/session infrastructure, which is where you’ll actually feel the difference.
If you tell me roughly how many users, what platform you’re connecting to (VDI/RDS/remote desktop), and whether they’ll be on Wi‑Fi or wired, I can sanity-check whether this particular model’s price makes sense or whether you should down-spec and save.
