HP Poly at ISE 2026: Discorp’s key takeaways, right from Barcelona
Barcelona was buzzing this year, but the HP Poly booth felt like a time machine. We’re moving way beyond “can you see my screen?” into a world that feels, well, actually human.
Beyond their new Mission Series headsets en VideoOS upgrades, in our humble opinion, the most visionary reveal was HP Dimension powered by Google Beam.
Read more on how HP Poly is changing the game:
HP Dimension + Google Beam: “Wait, are you actually here?”
The absolute showstopper was, without a doubt, HP Dimension, powered by Google Beam, bringing 3D, presence-driven collarboration to the hybrid workspace. Forget flat, pixelated grids.
Here is why it’s interesting:
• True 3D interaction: It recreates a natural sense of “presence” for remote teams, so you’re not looking at a video, but you’re interacting in a space
• Depth & motion: Using Google Beam tech, it captures depth and movement to make the experience feel lifelike
• The bridge: It links your personal desk and the office meeting room seamlessly, fitting right into HP’s push for a better hybrid workflow
• Built to last: Not just a prototype, but the foundation for HP’s long-term plan for AI-driven, immersive collaboration.
HP is clearly signaling that “immersive” isn’t a buzzword anymore, but a practical tool for the modern office.
Mission Series headsets: On a “Mission” to kill background noise
HP expanded its portfolio with the Poly Mission Series, a new lineup of corded USB headsets that are basically bulletproof for your ears.
• Mission 400: Light and simple for everyday use
• Mission 600: Dual noise cancelling microphones and premium design
• Mission 800: Four microphones + advanced ANC for maximum clarity
• AI-based noise reduction and super-wideband audio across all models
• One unified SKU per model certified for Teams, Zoom, Google Meet & Voice
Perfect for critical environments where audio simply has to work.
HP Poly VideoOS 5.0 upgrade
Software isn’t usually the “sexy” reveal, but VidioOS 5.0 is a beast. Built on Android 13, it’s faster, smoother, and supported through 2032 (!).
• AI-enhanced camera framing and noise blocking
• Multi-mic audio mixing
• Foundation for VideoOS 5.1 with DirectorAI multi-camera auto-switching
Single-Cable BYOD rooms made easy
HP’s Poly Studio V12 combined with the Thunderbolt 4 180W G6 Dock simplifies the Bring Your Own Device challenge.
One cable, that’s it. You get the screen, the camera, the mic and a charged laptop in one click.
Final thoughts
While HP Poly’s new headsets and VideoOS upgrades are strong moves for today’s hybrid reality, HP Dimension with Google Beam clearly sets the direction for tomorrow.
