HP Engage Go Mobile Retail Terminal (5R343UT#ABA): Versatile Point-of-Sale Solution
The HP Engage Go Mobile Retail Terminal (5R343UT#ABA) is a purpose-built, highly versatile mobile point-of-sale (POS) device designed for modern retail and hospitality environments. It offers flexibility to serve as a fixed countertop POS or a portable handheld terminal, enhancing customer engagement and streamlining transactions. Powered by an efficient Intel® Core™ i3 processor and Intel® HD Graphics 615, it provides reliable performance for essential retail applications.
Processor and Graphics Core:
At the core of the HP Engage Go Mobile is an Intel® Core™ i3 Processor. For a mobile terminal of this type, this typically refers to an Intel® Core™ i3-1110G4 3.9GHz, a low-power variant. This processor features 2 Cores and 4 Threads, with a base clock speed around 2.4 GHz. It provides sufficient processing power for running POS software, inventory management, customer lookup, and other common retail applications smoothly and efficiently. Its low power consumption is crucial for extended battery life in a mobile setting.
The graphics are handled by the integrated Intel® HD Graphics 615. This integrated GPU is designed for low power consumption while providing adequate performance for displaying user interfaces, product images, and standard multimedia. It is perfectly suited for the graphical demands of POS and retail applications, ensuring a clear and responsive visual experience for both staff and customers.
Immersive Display:
The HP Engage Go Mobile typically features a 12.3-inch diagonal WUXGA+ (1920 x 1280) IPS Multi-touch display. This high-resolution, bright, and durable display is optimized for intuitive touch interaction, making it easy for staff to navigate applications and for customers to review transactions and sign. The IPS panel offers wide viewing angles, essential for shared viewing in a retail setting. It’s often protected by Corning® Gorilla® Glass 4 for enhanced durability against drops and scratches, critical in a busy commercial environment. The display often has 400 nits of brightness, ensuring good visibility even in well-lit retail spaces.
Memory and Storage:
This configuration commonly comes with 4GB of LPDDR3-1866MHz onboard RAM. While LPDDR3 is an older standard, 8GB is ample for the specialized applications typically run on a retail terminal, ensuring smooth multitasking between POS, inventory, and payment processing software. Being onboard, it is not user-upgradeable, contributing to the device’s compact and durable design. For storage, it includes a fast 128GB M.2 SATA SSD. While SATA speeds are slower than NVMe, it provides rapid boot times and quick application loading for retail software, which typically doesn’t require extremely high storage bandwidth. The capacity is sufficient for the operating system and necessary retail applications.
Advanced Cooling System:
The HP Engage Go Mobile is designed for silent and reliable operation, often featuring a fanless or very low-noise cooling system. The Intel Core i3 U-series processor and its integrated graphics generate minimal heat, allowing for passive cooling or a highly efficient, quiet fan, which is ideal for customer-facing environments.
Design and Other Features:
- Chassis: This terminal boasts a rugged yet sleek design, often made from durable materials to withstand the rigors of a retail environment, including spills and minor impacts. Its mobile form factor allows it to be used handheld, or docked into an optional stand for a traditional countertop setup.
- Integrated Peripherals: Designed specifically for retail, it includes integrated peripherals such as:
- Magnetic Stripe Reader (MSR): For processing card payments.
- NFC Reader: For contactless payments (e.g., tap-to-pay).
