I’ve had this laptop for 4 years and it’s been amazing! Very quick and everything runs smoothly. It is great for gaming and you can customize the fans to your needs.

I love this laptop so much! It has been genuinely amazing to use nearly every day. The 3060 and i7 in this are no slouch at all. Every single game will run without issue and at high settings. There was a bit of bloatware, but i cannot dock a dtar for that, all pre-built computers (desktops included and even phones now) have it. Simply uninstall them. It's battery life when gaming isn't great but nobody expects that with gaming laptops, the power brick's cord is long enough to keep it plugged in pretty much anywhere. The build quality is great and very nice to the touch. I was worried about a squishy keyboad, worry not there is no squish! The trackpad is useless while gaming, like any laptop, get a bluetooth or wired mouse / controller if you'd like to play games.

Love love love this computer! Snappy 14-core i7-12700H! I was heavily considering a purchase of a laptop with i9 12800HX, basically the top of the top, but this Omen is doing just fine! Using for WFH, VMs, gaming, av editing, general internet usage. 100+ fps in many many current games, at 2560x1440! Blows me away. Way better than an Alienware I had purchased for $1000 more. Had to return, as a couple days after I purchased I had dead pixels all over screen. Exchanged. on another note I hope native Linux support down the road is not an issue. Intel rep at Best Buy was very helpful in choosing a new cpu. Battery life is not long, which is typical for a real multicore cpu. no silly macbook with essentially an iPhone processor. 2-3 hrs on battery maybe 4 with switching to Integrated graphics. Extremely happy with purchase.
