Customers are saying

Customers often highlight the powerful performance and good build quality of the 15.6" Gaming Laptop, along with its attractive price and customizable RAM. However, some users mention that the fan noise can be noticeable under load and that battery life could be improved. The keyboard's RGB backlighting is also frequently praised.

    A good beginning laptop got it on sale and runs great. The battery would be my only complain but to be expected with a supposed budget gaming laptop. Overall great product for the price.

    Very happy with this rig. I've gamed for decades, built my own desktops since the 90's, and work in IT. And this machine is impressive. I've run my games full tilt and cast to my 75" 4K TV with zero problem. I've played online MMORPG's, local emulators, installed games, Steam/Epic games, etc. All have run perfectly at full specs. Watching video online is great and sending it to my TV looks beautiful. The lit keyboard with different areas being different colors (WASD, etc.) is quite useful for gaming or surfing the web while my wife is watching a show with the lights off. Very happy with this purchase.

    Amazing specs, bad software/fan design.

    Returned mine. Amazing specs and hardware, but horrible software/programming and hardware design(fans) problems, it can easily become a mess. Be ready to return at the sign of any problems. software- The bios (basically the program/code that lets you do things and controls when fans turn on or off/how fast) can and will easily become a mess to the point where fans will not work properly which will overheat. and as you can see from other negative reviews the horrible coding mess by hp is the cause of these random problems. hardware- once i reinstalled bios the fan made a really high pitched noise constantly (maybe it happens overtime?) which will eat away at your brain and ruin any entertainment (look up 2020 omen 15 high pitch noise on yt or reddit). it seems like the design is small enough to create the high pitched noise so there is probably no fixing unless you mod it or if is a bios issue hope for a fix/revert to older bios. its a mess and a gamble. thankfully there is best buy returns or holiday return and hpwarranty if you miss return period. so you will potentially only waste time if you do get problems. pros- the specs, near 100%srgb color displsy, good brightness, 144hz refresh rate, great speakers, great keyboard. of course ryzen 7 4xxxh and 1660ti 6gb is great.

    Really good for the games I play like valorant or over watch main gripe I would say about it is the fans get seriously loud after a bit of playing, So I would invest in a fan.

    This computer is all I wanted, easy to upgrade the only ready I give a 4 stars it’s because it is kind of loud on the fan and the skin gets prints I suggest you get a skin protector.
