Q: Can the RAM on this really be upgrade to 16Gb? The computer comparison says it can, but every other OMEN laptop has been reported as not being upgradeable...

A: Good question. The RAM on this laptop is not expandable. The memory slots are not user accessible. If you still choose to upgrade the RAM, the warranty on the laptop will be voided. For more details on this laptop, please visit the following link: http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c05189001.pdf I hope this helps.

Q: Is the Solid State Drive better and why?

A: Because it has no moving parts unlike a mechanical drive. Data can run faster on a solid state drive, whereas a spindle on a mechanical drive has to take a bit of time to retrieve data. That is as simple as I can explain it, but this has a 256 GB SSD, that is GREAT!

Q: can you upgrade the graphics card after purchase? if so, are there limits because of the other specs on the computer?

A: You can never upgrade a "Graphics Card" on any Laptop or Mobile PC. The Graphics on all Laptops are soldered to the motherboard because of mobility issues. You can upgrade the Hard Drive (HDD) to a larger mechanical one, or an SSD (Solid State) drive, or the Memory (RAM). However, you can never upgrade a Graphics Card or Discreet GPU on any Laptop. You are stuck with what you get on a laptop, that is why it is the ultimate purchase, always making sure you pay for a higher ended graphics card to be future proof, so to speak :-)

Q: I asked this question before but the response did not answer the question. What is the point of this computer (which I almost bought) if I cannot play a 4k movie on it locally? This is a waste of technology the more I look into it?

A: I don't own it but you just Can't use the disk drive to play 4k, but can stream and download 4k movies. Since it doesn't have that drive. Most people are getting media that way now I guess . Hope this helps.

Q: Is it touchscreen

A: This is not a touchscreen.

Q: Does this have a glossy screen or more like a matt finish??

A: The screen has more like mat finish.
