    HiStone Luna S POS System HK528
  • HiStone is pleased to announce the release of the HK960, its next-generation POS model; built to drastically improve customer satisfaction via enabling businesses with more flexible, efficient, and secure POS services. An enhanced feature-rich functionality of HK960 coupled with high-end design is geared to meet both employees' and customers' expectations while driving better user and shopping experiences. The flagship HK960 POS product has been developed to achieve the core retail and hospitality business goal — to avoid long hours of operations and make customer service as fast and easy as possible.

    HiStone HK960 ERA POS System

    Benefits of the next-gen POS model HK960

    "The way people shop has forever changed in the last several years. Customers evolve as they need more secure and personalized services that drive more value to their shopping experiences," said Alex Barannik, Business Development Manager at Histone. "This new paradigm stimulates the HiStone team to deliver our clients only the most efficient, market-ready POS solutions that generate business growth and bring customer satisfaction."

    When compared to ordinary point-of-sale products, the innovative HiStone's HK960 model turns out to be several steps ahead. The HK960 is a flagship device that has successfully inherited all the previous models' benefits and been equipped with new ultramodern characteristics.

    Ultra-thin bezel combined with high brightness

    HiStone understands the importance of display characteristics; this said, the flagship model has got a screen that is able to undoubtedly conquer a salesperson's attention. The ultra-thin bezel of just 1.1 cm makes the screen look stylish and modern.

    HiStone HK960 ERA POS System

    The model edges are 1cm and 1.5 cm only; this is why the screen ratio is 82% — HiStone offers your staff the highest possible field of view. The HK960 definitely beats its competitors being far more convenient for end-users.

    As for the highest possible brightness, the technology update is also evident to make the machine more comfortable for the eyes. Unlike many other traditional POS models in the market with around 220 nits, the flagship model gets 450 nits. The revolutionary characteristics of the HK960 with its 450 nits are designed to exceed the average industry features and customer expectations.

    Next-level power features inside a small, elegant box

    The HK960 looks like an ultramodern device that follows all the latest user design trends; however, this new POS model is proud of its monstrous power features.

    The model has an Intel Tiger Lake UP3, the 11th generation of Intel's CPU. The i3-1115G4E, with a clock speed from 2.2GHz to 3.9GHz, is powerful enough, making it much more efficient for everyday operations in the long run. While most of today's models fail to meet ever-growing technology requirements, the HK960 boasts the highest turbo speed (up to 4.2GHz).

    Furthermore, the innovative tech model receives enhanced DDR characteristics: clock speed of 3200MHz and bandwidth of 31 GB/s. What does it mean for your business?

    The response speed is among the core characteristics of POS machines, and HK960 takes a front seat. A few seconds are enough to open the app, display pages, and complete the transaction. Your employees will undoubtedly appreciate the high response speed.

    Stylish design to meet up-to-date fashion trends

    Aside from the high-class characteristics, the HK960 is a model that looks resolute and smart to attract your customers' attention at first glance.

    With shimmery metallic paint and aluminum alloy body, the flagship self-checkout model makes it evident that your business is paving the path of innovation and elegance. The dual-hinge machine's stand features flexible adjustment for added versatility.

    Ultra-secure usage

    HiStone understands the importance of the highest, watertight security; this is why the flagship model utilizes a dual LAN Port connection. As for the MTBF feature, the HK960 sets another record. HiStone equipped its ultramodern POS machine with 50 000 hours of Mean Time Between Failure. And that sounds quite impressive.

    The HK960 is an excellent opportunity for any retail, hospitality, restaurant business or startup to ensure next-level customer services. Convenient, ultramodern, and high-power POS devices are ready to impress your staff and customers. For more information, contact our specialists to choose the correct model configuration. Logo customization is available as well.

  • HiStone is ready to impress the retail and hospitality market players with a new POS model – HK578, branded as HERO II. Retail and hospitality businesses now have one more opportunity to get an edge for their brick-and-mortar stores, retail chains, restaurants, and hotels.

    All-in-one POS solutions are of high demand offline stores, as such systems include everything to provide both employees and customers with the best service. HERO II enters the line of next-gen POS systems as the model that combines high performance and low power consumption.

    HERO II HK578: Core Benefits

    The brand-new model designed by HiStone entirely matches the latest tech and business demands. HERO II HK578 provides hospitality and retail business owners with the ultimate customer experience, reduction of operational expenses, and unparalleled technical excellence.

    The Combination of High Productivity with Lower Power Consumption

    Intel Celeron J6412 processor makes the model a more economical choice for both chain stores and hotels as HERO II effectively handles POS transactions of any complexity. The processor is responsible for high and stable productivity with low power consumption at the same time. Minimize your operational costs without harm to the effectiveness of routine shopping processes.

    This all-in-one POS contains 4GB DDR4 memory and 128GB SSD storage (default characteristics). The upgrades up to 16GB and 512GB are available.

    HERO II is a software-agnostic POS terminal, which is why retailers and hospitality companies can easily integrate the model into their business operations. Such seamless integrability is particularly important for businesses, as they can deal with any software providers they like to.

    Comfort for Eyes with 15-inch Screen

    HERO II is equipped with a 15” LED screen that makes it comfortable for employees’ eyes to manage the shopping process. The screen is compatible with all 4:3 software solutions.

    Business owners can get a model with the second screen suggested among optional peripherals. Two complementary solutions are available: a compact 10.4” screen with 800*600 resolution or fully-functional 15-inch widescreen with 1024*768 resolution. Business users may get either touch or non-touch second screens. On top of this, HK578 may be optionally equipped with highly endurable vacuum fluorescent displays (VFDs).

    Sleek and Stylish Design

    HiStone has made HERO II of die-cast aluminum to provide retail points with a model of highly reliable housing. Along with exceptional durability, the all-in-one POS system impresses retailers with its compact footprint and sleek design elements. The dark gray color matches all the interior design solutions making HERO II look stylish and correspond with the latest technology and customer-centricity trends.

    The model provides employees as well as hotel guests and shoppers with ultimate comfort as multiple height adjustments are available. Also, HERO II is fully compatible with VESA mounts.

    Optional peripherals

    Aside from second displays, business owners may equip the POS system with card readers (MSR only or MSR + RFID), fingerprint readers, and desktop stands/wall mounts. As such, clients from the hospitality and retail sectors can pay only for those options they really need.

    As of today, the model is compatible with Linux and Windows 10 operating systems. Starting from 2023, HERO II will become compatible with Windows 11 to enhance your business flexibility.

    The operating environment of the model varies from 0℃ to 40℃; this is why the model perfectly matches the working conditions of any business premises, be it an offline store, restaurant, or a hotel.

    HiStone has the only way to explore and harness new opportunities, and this way is a continuous progress,” said Mohamed Berihi, Business Development Manager, HiStone. “HERO II is the next step on the way towards our global mission – to provide retail and hospitality businesses alongside their customers with the ultimate experience.”

    All-in-one POS HERO II systems are already available for smooth integration with business capabilities at scale. Stay connected to the progress and unlock new opportunities for your business.
