HP - OmniBook Ultra 14" 3K OLED Touchscreen Laptop - Snapdragon X2 Elite (2026) - 32GB Memory - 1TB SSD - Copilot+ PC - Stone Blue

I have had the HP Omnibook Ultra 14in laptop for a couple of weeks now and so have formed an opinion - overall it's a solid product with lots to like and few quirks. It's good enough power to use on the go especially with if you are not a fan of always connecting to power outlets like me. Surprisingly feels lighter than a MacBook Air, guess due to weight distribution on account of a slightly larger footprint. Real test will be reliability over time. What I like about it: - Build quality - the forged stamped aluminum chassis is not only great to look at but feels solid in spite of how light weight and slim it feels. And love the steel blue color and how it catches the light. I was unsure about the sharp metallic edges but they don't bite and add to the premium feel. - The 3K OLED screen is beautiful. Angle away from direct light as it's glossy. Make sure to turn on HDR to fully utilize the 10bit panel. - The keyboard and mouse are good for this slim profile. Had to tinker with the haptic settings to get the touchpad to my liking. - The RAM (LPDDR5X 9533MT/s) and Drive (PCie5 NVMe) are fast. In fact, this is the first windows hard drive that is faster than my mac. - The Snapdragon X2E is delivering the promise of Windows on Arm - it's quiet, cool, responsive and all this with excellent battery life. Fortunately, I have not hit any compatibility issues so far but it's still early days. I do recommend checking the common software you use before purchasing. What I dislike: - I have to start with the bloatware from both HP & Microsoft - enormous amount of crapware which took me hours to cleanup and still hear could come back on Updates. It almost ruins a great machine. - Would have preferred a Tandem OLED as what they have updated the EliteBook. - The biggest stumbling block is the price as definitely on the higher side in spite of what's offered - suggest to look for BestBuy Open Box Excellent stacked with their frequent sales.

I bought this device to replace a Dell laptop that was beginning to have issues with managing Zoom meetings at the same time I had other applications open to support what was happening in the Zoom meeting. The OmniBook solved that for me and the issues I was having before are not happening anymore. I love the light weight of the device and it works great with the HP Hub that I bought to go with it. It connects seamlessly to my dual monitors, when in my office and then works fine when not connected to the hub, while out of my office. The 3 USB-C ports are nice to have. It would have been great to have 1 USB-A port too, but I purchased a USB-C to USB-A converter that allows me to plug in USB-A peripherals, when I need to out of the office. Overall, everything is great.

I can’t say enough great things about this laptop! Battery life is next level while giving plenty of computing power. The oled screen is stunning. I you want a premium portable laptop with high build quality you can’t go wrong here!

Highly recommend the HP OmniBook Ultra Snapdragon X2 Elite for it's speed and screen.

Build quality is high and feels premium. Snapdragon is a game changer. Its extremely fast. Battery lasts for days, no draining like with x86 useless processing. Never heard it's fan sound. It's never on because the CPU never heats. Yes some programs are not running ARM nativively but you won't even notice the difference. Which apps run ARM nativity they fly like a rocket. So far I had only issues with my all in one printer, the scanner app doesn't work with ARM at all, but I just replaced the printer. I will never gp back to x86 again.
