Amaya Toman DaaS is an abbreviation for "Device as a Service". This is a program that you may be familiar with from major domestic electronics retailers, and as part of which a certain form of rental of electronic equipment is offered to corporate entities. HP surprisingly decided to rent Apple products as well.
Apple from HP? Why not!
HP (Hewlett-Packard) has expanded its DaaS program, under which companies can rent electronic devices for business purposes, to include Apple products. HP customers will now be able to get Macs, iPhones, iPads and other products of the Cupertino company for regular monthly fees. HP will continue to provide service and support to these customers.
At the moment, only the American branch of HP offers Apple products as part of DaaS, but the company does not hide its plans to expand the scope of this service outside the United States - soon, for example, Great Britain should follow.
VR as a service
Virtual reality is no longer associated exclusively with the gaming industry or a narrow branch of development. At HP, they are very aware of this, which is why the company's management has decided to provide companies with a Windows Mixed Reality headset (see photo gallery) as part of DaaS, along with the recently revealed Z4 Workstation, which is a high-performance workstation designed specifically for work in the virtual field. augmented and mixed reality.

Perfect care
HP tries not to limit its DaaS program to simply renting equipment, but wants to provide its clients with the most comprehensive services possible, which is why the company has expanded its analytical services to include the possibility of monitoring hardware performance and, above all, the possibility of early detection of potential problems and defects, and thus their proactive correction.
"The unique data analysis capabilities of HP DaaS are now available on Windows, Android, iOS and macOS devices. We are creating a multi-platform solution, designed to increase the efficiency of IT services and improve the experience," reads the HP press statement.

So it probably won't be much for private individuals, because private individuals are looking for money without potential earnings. They've had it in Alza for a long time, but it's really only for those who deduct it from their taxes, or it's quickly canceled in bankruptcy.
Overpriced for a mobile phone that costs 25k, paying 20k in installments and then returning it is not very economical. iPhones are worth about 15k after a year, so it's at least 10k thrown out the window.
