Customer Ratings & Reviews

Might be kinda long but please read if you’re interested in this laptop. I overall recommend the laptop, for the price it’s very very hard to beat, I got it on sale so it was I think around $1,200. First off bestbuy shipping is very very trash the box came in very damaged so bad the laptop wouldn’t even power on so I had to drive over an hour the next day and exchange it for a replacement, I’m not blaming the laptop for that obviously bc the box was damaged way more then I was okay with because of shipping. Since I’ve gotten my new one it’s worked great with no problems, the real complaint I have about the laptop is the overheating problem, it doesn’t kick the fans on HIGH when u have it in the Auto category meaning you gotta swap it yourself, man heating problem is the fans being on the very bottom so if the laptop is slightly raised it doesn’t get good airflow but if you tilt it up slightly the temp starts dropping fast so when I’m playing a big game like cod, battlefield or even rust I kee a check every 10-15 mins to make sure I’m not pushing over 205 degrees. Fans are loud on HIGH mode but that doesn’t bother me, overall a great laptop runs every game I’ve tried on high graphics with no problem. Only reason for a 4 star is the overheating and the shipping.. also battery life isn’t the best if you don’t keep it on charge, only while gaming tho.

Plenty of power and runs all the games i like to play. The screen could be much better. Theres bleeding on the corners. Its very loud and runs kinda hot. Overall not too bad if you get a good price.

Fantastic machine. Great frame rate, great look! Has all the bells and whistles. Purchased for gaming and as a replacement for an older laptop, and it is amazing! It is a bit heavy because of all that it can do, and the battery life while playing bigger games is just ok. Great for plugged-in gameplay!

This laptop is very good at gaming. I thought that the RTX 5060 in it would be too weak to run some games, but STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl, a very resource-hungry game, ran perfectly fine at High settings at 1080p and 60fps. However, that’s not to say that this laptop has issues. The battery life is somewhat low, running out within an hour or two on HP’s “Eco” setting in the Omen app, and with the graphics device set to the Integrated CPU graphics. That’s my only major complaint; the laptop genuinely is the best one I’ve owned, and I’d highly recommend it if you want a (somewhat) cheap gaming laptop.

Good product. I run AutoCad LT - this laptop seems to run this with no issues. It is a bit on the heavy side, but not overly weighty. When I use it w/o being plugged in, the battery level appears to drop quickly.

I've had this laptop for over a month now and it runs smoothly when playing games and browsing the web. I play games on high graphics settings and do not experience lag or frame drops. The screen and keyboard are the right size for me. A few issues I have are that the fans can get pretty loud when I do play games, especially The Sims 2 (with mods), The Sims 4 and Baldur's Gate III. Another issue I've been running into is that it doesn't connect to wifi right away at times and I have to manually click connect. This doesn't happen all the time but it does on occasion. It is also pretty heavy and the charger is huge so portability is not that easy. Overall, I am satisfied and those few gripes are pretty minor for what I intend to use this laptop for.

I’m very satisfied with this HP Omen 16. The AMD Ryzen 9 8940HX CPU and NVIDIA RTX 5060 GPU deliver strong performance — games run smoothly at 1080p and 1440p, and even heavy tasks like video editing or multitasking feel effortless. The 32 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD give plenty of memory and storage speed, so I don’t worry about lag or long load times. The 16″ 2K 144 Hz screen looks sharp and fluid, which makes gaming and work both pleasant. Build and cooling are solid — the laptop stays stable during long gaming or editing sessions. Overall this feels like a powerful, well-rounded laptop for games, work, and creative tasks — a great choice if you want next-gen performance without going overboard on budget.

Sleek and light for a gaming laptop. Havent used it heavily yet but works great for what I need and stays cool.

Solid all-around performance: With its Ryzen 9 + RTX 5060 + 32 GB RAM + 1 TB SSD, Omen 16 is very capable for compile-heavy development, ML experiments (small models), multitasking, and resource-heavy workloads.

I had an HP OMEN from 2016 that I used heavily while being in the military, deployed 2 times, and gamed hard on it for almost 10 years. It was great for what I needed. It finally started to show its age and I decided to buy another OMEN. Thankfully, HP came out with this new OMEN that's far beyond what I had, and it's fantastic. For the price, I feel that it beats other laptops in the mid-tier space. I've always wanted more than low-tier but could never afford top-tier stuff, so if you want something that works well for basically any game, streaming, social media, school work, and all-around machine that can do it all, this is it. You can put another NVMe SSD for more storage, and RAM is upgradable but 32 GB is enough. And connecting to an external monitor is super easy if you go that route. All in all, its a great Laptop that should last close to 10 yrs or more.

Had the right specs for a good price. Only downside has been the fan noise and heat it puts out. But it fulfills it's role and while the battery certainly doesn't last very long it comfortably fits on a lap table to use a mouse on and the cord is plenty long enough to plug into a nearby outlet.

COMPUTER WORKS GREAT. LOTS OF SPPED & LOTS OF SPACE. i REALLY NEEDED THIS SYSTEM TO WORK ON MY PROJECTS FROM WORK. GREAT SYSTEM TO USE FOR ALL APPLICATIONS.

Responsive ssd. The abundance of ddr5 ram and the gpu makes this an impressive gaming laptop. Runs games like a charm. No hiccups. Overheating is not an issue. Wifi hardware allows me to take full advantage of the bandwidth from my router. Display is impressive as well.

I bought this laptop on sale for $1279, you cant find these specs for less than $1300 currently. The laptop isn’t perfect but, in my experience thus far, its a great laptop. It crushes any game I have thrown at it on high/ultra depending on the title. Like someone else mentioned, the screen does have some sort of weird aspect ratio which I eventually got used to. It is loud when gaming but its trying to keep everything cool in a small space… noise levels are within my expectations; cant really hear it with my headset on. If you can get it at or under $1300, its a good deal. At almost $1600, I would rather spend the extra money for a lenovo.

This is a great laptop. My only concern is the battery life. I wish it lasted at least 4 5 hours, but nah. only 2 hours Max. But I guess that is what you sign up for when you buy a powerful laptop meant for performance and not battery life. Also, I wish it had Windows Hello and/or a fingerprint.

Performance is great. Its not too big or bulky so its easy to bring around on the go. Battery life is pretty good, especially with the discrete graphics and LED keyboard disabled. Had it for a month without any issues.

At the time of writing this review I have had this laptop for a lil over a month and I have been greatly impressed. I upgraded from a dell g7 I had for 7 years and wanted another gaming laptop, but one that had a design that didnt scream “gamer” and had the specs for some heavy gaming on the side for 1200. After searching for a bit, I discovered this laptop that fit everything I was looking for. Wasnt as expensive as the zephyrus g14 and 16 and appeared sleeker than the tuff a16 and legion 5. The specs of 1150 is definitely a steal. So far I had no issues with the laptop regarding performance as cpu and gpu temps have remained below 80C while gaming. Regarding productivity, the laptop has also done good in this area (granted i did wish the cpu wasnt power hungry, but its based off an older amd generation). That said, besides the battery and wifi card placement, I have no issues with the laptop especially for its build quality (being apart of Hp and their known hinge and hallmark problems). Personally id recommend it if ur looking for a laptop at the 1200 mark as other laptops around that range would cut corners either by the cpu, storage or ram and would cost 100-200 more for the same specs.

As long as you have the charger and it’s plugged in, it’s pretty sweet. The battery life unplugged is terrible. At idle with nothing going on its drains pretty quickly, and it loses power and goes into an eco mode when unplugged. Your frames are low. The game quality really drops significantly. But plugged in, its a beast

I am not too knowledgeable about computer specs, but I’ve had this laptop for a couple of weeks now and so far it’s run great! The battery life sucks, but that’s kind of expected from a gaming laptop. I’m sure a desktop gaming computer would be a more ideal option if you’re very serious about optimizing your gaming experience, but for people who just want to be able to play games and stream movies, this is a pretty solid option.
