Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this laptop from the summer until now, so here is what I see and feel after using it for about 3 months. First of all, the design is quite simple, modern, not too "bulky" like many other gaming laptops, and in terms of quality, although it is a plastic shell, it is solidly finished, not flimsy. However, the surface is quite easy to get fingerprints. I'm not too sure about the screen, I'm just a normal person who buys it for use, so I don't know about this issue, but I see good colors, the brightness is just enough for use in the room. Talking about performance, I find it very stable for gaming and working, I'm a light gamer and do things that are not too high, so my fan is not too noisy, when playing games (not too heavy games) the laptop fan is not too noisy. Talking about just working, not playing games, I feel that it has no fan noise at all, it is not noisy. When I bought the laptop, I was quite hesitant to buy it because I was afraid that the fan noise would be as loud as other Gaming laptops, but after I bought it, I was very satisfied with my Victus 15 Laptop. The keyboard is good to type on, the key travel is moderate, and there is a simple white backlight. The battery life is not impressive - not too long for mixed use. One thing I am not happy and satisfied with is that my laptop's WIFI often drops for a few seconds and then I have to reconnect. I don't know if this is due to my laptop or Windows. I think I will need to ask Best Buy about this. Right now everything is fine, only the WIFI is abnormal. Thank you for taking your time to read this little Review of mine.

I’ve been extremely happy with this HP Victus so far. The Ryzen 7 7445HS paired with the RTX 4050 delivers excellent performance for both gaming and productivity. Games run smoothly at 1080p, and the 144Hz display makes everything feel very responsive and fluid. The laptop feels solidly built, stays reasonably cool under load, and handles multitasking with ease thanks to the 16GB of RAM. Boot times and load times are fast with the 512GB SSD, and the keyboard is comfortable for long sessions. Overall, this is a great balance of power, display quality, and price. Whether you’re gaming, working, or doing creative tasks, it performs exactly as expected. Very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend it.

The HP Victus 15.6″ gaming laptop with an AMD Ryzen 7 7445HS, 16 GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 for just $639.99—a fantastic deal considering its full-HD 144 Hz display and snappy performance. Best Buy So far, I’ve been using it mostly for gaming—and it delivers. I was able to run the Battlefield 6 Beta, PUBG, and Arma Reforger easily. Frame rates were solid, and visuals looked great thanks to the high-refresh panel. As expected from a gaming machine, the fans can get loud under load, but that’s completely normal. When I’m not gaming, though, it’s eerily quiet, which is a nice contrast that balances performance with everyday usability. Battery life and thermals have been manageable so far. The laptop stays relatively cool during normal use, though you’ll definitely want to game near a power outlet. Why I Gave It a High Rating: Excellent value: Packed with mid-high-end specs at a surprisingly low price. Strong gaming chops: Handles modern titles smoothly, including beta releases. Quiet during light tasks: No fan distraction when not gaming. Solid build & display: The 144 Hz Full-HD panel really elevates the gaming experience. A Couple of Notes: Fan noise under heavy gaming: Consider using headphones or setting fan curves if the noise gets distracting. Memory/Storage Expansion? If you plan to handle large game libraries or heavy multitasking, you might want to upgrade RAM or add extra storage down the line.

Perfect size laptop I needed for photo editing! The speed is amazing, the memory size is great(if not the best in it's comparable range). I love the light up keyboard features that allow me to still use the laptop at night while everyone else is asleep. This laptop also fits perfectly in my personal backpack used for traveling. I love the bright graphics which is just what I need for the edits and logos. Photos of some photos attached for reference of graphics.

[FARCRY4 Graphics in photos presented!] I expected it when I saw the other reviews but I would also like to mention that the laptop has some issues with the wi-fi connection dropping for a few seconds to minutes but I was able to fix this I'm pretty sure it's just a matter of making sure your internet drivers were installed correctly. (windows has their own built in fix which helped me with this pretty quick.) Now, I'm not a heavy gamer but I recently just got into Far Cry and realized I would definitely have to upgrade from my intel graphics laptop before I got to the 4th game. It runs like a dream and I have only Best Buy and black Friday to thank for that haha, so thank you! Truly a steal considering the capacity this laptop has. (besides the battery life being meh but that wasn't a big worry for me as I game from home only.) AND!!! it is a major plus that there is room to update to a larger SSD although a little bit of learning is definitely required for that because you'll have to copy the driver onto a new one as far as I'm aware. It's still a really nice option to have since I couldn't afford very much when I initially purchased this. I'll definitely become a regular at best buy soon enough. :) (P.S. sorry for any spelling errors, I suck at typing on keyboards still even as an adult.)

I've only had it for a month, maybe two, but i'd say as a college student getting their first gaming laptop this works pretty fine. Built way better than my previous more budget laptop. Though I'm sure the entirety of the laptops build is plastic, it is sturdy, not flimsy plastic that feels smooth and good. I am not that extreme of a gamer, but was getting tired of most stream games, and sometimes even Roblox lagging when playing with friends so my sole purpose of getting this laptop was more or less to be able to game more smoothly with friends, and it does the job! I am able to play games, and be on a call at the same time usually. There is never really bad lag in the games unless you try to play more demanding games. Unsure how it'd function then but for more lighter/ medium leveled games it works like a charm. Pretty sure fortnite works swiftly too. Just make sure you're using this on a TABLE and not a bed while gaming, the bottom tends to heat up alot when gaming, which i'd say is one con. Besides ofc battery life merely being over 3 hours, maybe almost 4, when you're not gaming. ALWAYS ALWAYS keep the charger in while gaming if not battery will drain in literally an hour!!! But overall for whats considered a "budget" gaming laptop I say for those not looking for something extreme, and new to the gaming world this works great!

I bought this laptop about a month ago, and so far it’s been able to max out the frames on my monitor, holding a consistent 144Hz in almost every game. It’s definitely worth it, especially for the price I paid. My only concern is the storage—since it’s a gaming laptop, 512GB isn’t the option I’d recommend. Another concern is battery life. If it isn't plugged in the battery runs out in around 3 hours, which isn't bad, but I would recommend to have to plugged in for the best performance. Everything else is great.

I’m extremely impressed with this HP Victus laptop. It actually arrived earlier than the estimated delivery date, which was a great start. Right out of the box, the speed and performance were phenomenal. The AMD Ryzen 7 7445HS paired with the RTX 4050 handles gaming and everyday tasks effortlessly, with no slowdowns or stuttering. The battery life is also better than I expected for a gaming laptop, easily lasting through long sessions of regular use. The 144Hz display is clear, vibrant, and incredibly smooth, making games feel fluid while also being great for browsing, streaming, and productivity. Everything looks sharp and responsive. Overall, this laptop delivers excellent performance, a smooth and vibrant display, and solid battery life in a clean, premium-feeling design. If you’re looking for a powerful gaming laptop that’s also great for daily use, this is an excellent choice.

As someone who sells electronics back in Bulgaria I can tell you, this laptop is worth the price especially if it's on sale. I got mine for around 650-700$ or something along that. The display, keyboard and battery life are great. It performs good in games and in drawing/animating software. The GPU and CPU render videos and drawings fast. A few things to consider tho, Ryzen CPU paired with Nvidia GPU is not the best but it works (personal preference is to pair Ryzen CPU with Radeon GPU and Intel CPU with Nvidia GPU). If you are going to use it mainly for gaming go ahead but buy a cooling pad/system for it (it doesn't overheat fast but it can get pretty warm if you keep it on your legs) and when you play for more than 30min-1h on a DEMANDING game, it's better to plug it in, otherwise the battery will be depleted. Overall it's a nice and solid pick for such a price.

The HP Victus 15.6" gaming laptop is a well-balanced device that provides solid performance, a good display, and a sleek design. With the powerful AMD Ryzen 7 7445HS processor, 16GB of RAM, and the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050, it handles most modern games and creative tasks with ease. While the battery life and storage might be limiting for some, the overall value for money is hard to beat at this price point.

Overall a great gaming laptop. Graphics are great the speed is great. I’d say the only downside is when you’re running a game and you’re not plugged into your charger the battery dies quick but other than that it’s great.

Amazing laptop All in all. It works straight out of the box, no need to go hunting for drivers. Quiet fans and not too hot when on my lap, 10/10 HP.

Amazing quality for the price. I am a content creator and student, and this laptop handles all my needs extremely well. I've had it for three months, and I will say that video editing can lag a bit since there's only 16 gigs of memory, and I wish they gave us a 1 TB SSD instead of 512, but overall, this is a great laptop for the price on sale. It has handled all my work tasks extremely well and I'd highly recommend it to a content creator on a major budget. In terms of gaming, this seems very solid as well and can handle most games. I will say my only problem with this computer is the battery life and video editing lag. When handling major tasks, the computer can be very slow and the battery doesn't last that long, but overall this is an amazing value for the price and I'd highly recommend it. Video editing lag during large projects is expected since this is a laptop that doesn't have the most advanced specs. I will say that I don't really think you can get better specs at this price range, though, and this laptop has served me greatly. Absolutely recommend.

Great product buit poor connectivity, at times. Even after downloading the update extentsion, it still have issues every once in awhile; though this is mostly limited to the first 20-30 min I turn it on. It, cyclically, picks up and drops the wifi; even though i pay for the highest/fastest speeds available. Whereas imy xbox1 has never has any issues. That being said I am happy with the computing power as well as the performance of the nvidia 4050, which actually surprised me. Overall would reccomend but unless you use it in the same room as the modem/router, Id reccomend put a wifi extension; or else you might end up sitting on top a cat tree next to the window all night and ve limited to using it on top of your fridgerator until you get one.

I’m satisfied with the laptop, especially at a price. It’s gaming laptop of screen size 15.6 which is best for gaming. It has decent graphics and doesn’t lag even with games like GTA 5, it comes with latest windows 11 which is best in windows laptop. My favourite thing about it is its weight. It’s so light weight and compact.

I've been using the laptop for around 3 months, and it runs really good. I've played a variety of games from Elden Ring, Rainbow x, Valorant, and Hell Divers 2. It runs really well tho, for big games like Elden Ring you might need to have it plugged, because the battery will get low in like and hour and a half or 2.

Bought this item a month ago for gaming and working, it is super light weight compared to other laptops I´ve had before, super fast, the materials are super good, I recommend, battery holds pretty good.

This product is great for a budget gaming laptop. It is lag-free, silent, and has impeccable speakers. The NVIDIA Graphics Card and elegant keyboard provides a seamless touch to the computer.

Excellent. The best laptop considering how much it costs and how well it performs its amazing. The only problem you will find is its storage size but you can expand it later so at least for me this has no problems

The hp victus gaming laptop has good performance for it's price. It makes it q gpod budget friendly gaming laptop and has a good frame rate of 144hz. I would recommend this laptop for any beginners
