Customer Ratings & Reviews

Loving this laptop so far. With a powerful built in iGPU, beautiful 3K OLED screen, great battery life, and very good portability I want for nothing more in a laptop. This is able to play modern UE5 games with no problem, plugged in or on battery makes no difference in gaming performance. If you are looking for a sleek selection of ports to go along with this laptop, take a look at the Dell DA326 travel hub. It's like a dock that fits in your pocket and has a 2.5gb NIC and 85-100w of power passthrough.

Long time Lenovo user and thought I should give HP a try for this CPU generation. Very happy with this laptop overall. It has a premium feel and look, and it handles both my work and a heavy gaming load without breaking a sweat. I genuinely couldn’t be happier with the performance and build quality from HP. The biggest drawback is that HP effectively forces you to use their companion software to access performance profiles. If you do a fresh install of Windows 11 and skip HP’s app, the system will aggressively throttle, so having access to HP’s performance profiles is essential to get the performance you paid for. I also run Fedora 44 on this machine. As of this writing, onboard sound doesn’t work under Fedora yet, and it will likely require a newer kernel before audio support is fully functional. It also would have been much nicer if this laptop shipped with a 2TB SSD by default, given its performance and price bracket. Interestingly, I also tried the Omnibook X with the Panther Lake X7, and gaming performance on that weaker configuration was actually better than on this X9 model. Overall, I’m still optimistic this laptop will carry me comfortably through Rampocalypse 2026

Good build quality and good cpu and gpu. USB C ports are good.

The HP OmniBook Ultra 14 felt premium right out of the box, with a great build and an amazing display. Performance was smooth for everyday use, though I had to upgrade from the 16GB to the 32GB model since 16GB struggled even with basic web browsing. Battery life held up well throughout the day. I ended up moving away from Windows to keep everything centralized on Mac, but that's a personal ecosystem preference, not a knock on this laptop. HP's build quality and Care Pack options still make them one of my favorite brands.

Very good and extremely practical. Easy to carry around

This laptop was huge disappointment. Build quality is Horrible. Proformance is even worse. Its not intel chip thats the issue. Its HP failed again with this gen. I recommend another maker if you want intel panther lake 388h.
