    This is a high performance computer with all the highest quality parts installed. All of this is listed in the specs, so I won't repeat it here. I am very happy with the performance of this laptop.

    The laptop feels very solid and heavy. The screen looks great and bright and the high refresh rate is awesome. I like that I can limit the battery charge to 80% in the BIOS to keep the battery healthy longer. The keyboard is great, but the trackpad is nothing special. The value is high when the laptop is on sale. I can't comment on battery life because I only use plugged in.

    Ready to go right from the start. No problems with the machine itself - windows 11 actually made the transfer of files from the old one easy but didn't do all files

    Great Laptop with a few caveats

    This HP is a very capable machine and has a sleek chassis and a gorgeous display. It's main drawback is the stock thermal paste. It uses a hybrid liquid metal and can create inconsistent temperatures depending on the factory application. The keyboard is beautiful if you like the pudding design. The typing experience was acceptable but not great. Definitely pick this one up on sale.

    Spontaneous roboots - inadequate cooling

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought mine off of the HP website directly due a nice sale at the time. Everything worked great out if the box. All Windows upadtaes and drivers installed with zero issues. I even updated the BIOS. Then it was time to game. Loaded up several games and started playing. The laptop fans come on full force and it is loud, but games are playing fine at furst. Then i notice studdering and then a few minutes later, the laptop just shuts downs without warning. I restart the laptop and it boots up fine. I then play another game and aame exact thing happens again. I an now returnibg tgis laptop. It’s defective and does jot have the proper cooling solution to keel it stable. This is a major design glaw by HP. I hope they can fix this issue. I will be looking for a new gaming laptop that doesnt have this problem.

    I love it. It cost me more than others but it had the lit up keys that I wanted. The color on the screen is so bright and the graphics are so clear. It’s better than watching my TV. I’m glad I bought it and it’s worth every penny.

    the Omen Max 16 is like if someone took a tank and taught it to game. It’s dang powerful. • Performance? Totally crushing it. This thing runs Cyberpunk 2077 at ultra settings with ease—like a boss. In benchmarks, it’s almost always beating other RTX 5080 laptops and occasionally giving the Lenovo Legion Pro 7i a run for its money.

    Bad Omen

    I gave this computer a 3 star review. It is pretty zippy at first and I needed it for Unreal Engine project and Video editing. I think it failed me. I would have given it a one star but I bought it as an open box through Best Buy and I feel maybe I got a lemon and someone else saw this too. Best Buy sold it as in excellent condition so they might bear some of the responsibility. I thought it was because I had a real complex scene in UE 5.5 but when I worked in Resolve and other programs the computer kept crashing.

    I purchased this laptop to be a desktop replacement. It has held up great. The only thing I would have wanted to know before making the purchase was. If you are going to hook this laptop up to a monitor. For the GPU to engage in gaming, it needs to be connected via HDMI. It will not engage the GPU through USB-C. That could have been me, not knowing that. Aside from that, I highly recommend this laptop.

    The laptop is a powerhouse. It will run anything you throw at it with no issues. The temps are pretty cool while playing monster hunter on Ultra settings locked at 90fps (my preference). It can run higher fps no issue. Aside from power, 1. my issues are: the screen is not as bright or good looking as the asus g16 oled. 2. The laptop feels extremely cheap. The keyboard feels like cheap plastic. The keys get stuck sometines. The power button works after pressing it a few times. 3. The audio might be the worst I have ever heard in any laptop so far. Even at 100% its very low and sounds terrible. 4. The laptop has marks all over even in areas i never even touched. How? The mousepad sucks too and half the time registers right click even when left clicking. Anyways i will try it for s bit longer and if not i will end up returning it. Its very expensive to feel like as cheap as it does.
