HP’s premium laptops will have a new logo — sort of. While what users see is technically new to their eyes, it’s actually one HP rejected five years ago.
It’s just four slanted lines, but the branding is still quite clear. Instead of a fully scripted ‘Hewlett Packard’ or distinct ‘hp’ letters, the four lines merely suggest ‘hp’ to your eyes.
New York, meet the world’s tech scene
5,000 Tech leaders are coming to NYC this November to learn and do business. This is your chance to join them.
The “new” logo was actually submitted in 2011 by Moving Brands, which was hired by HP to refresh the brand. the original four-line logo may have been too futuristic for HP, but times have clearly changed.
The logo can be found on the new Spectre 13 laptop. It’s not clear what other devices HP plans to badge with its old new logo, but it’s sadly not using it for the entire brand.
