Love the price as this was a Christmas gift for my son. It seems to have very durable construction. My only wish is that it had more storage, it only comes with 8 gigabytes and after downloading call of duty there is no more space. I have read that you can purchase additional memory for this particular model which is a huge plus! Works well for web browsing, watching YouTube and comes with co pilot. This product seems to work well for my sons needs since he is just a beginner in gaming and he can also use this laptop for school.

Bought this for my son for Christmas, he is so in love with this laptop! The graphics are phenomenal! Only issue is his battery will only last 45 mins playing roblox, I am going to bring it to the store to see if the battery isn't good due to shipping or something. Battery Life is the only complaint

I couldn’t be happier with the HP Victus 15.6” Gaming Laptop! For its price point, this laptop is an absolute steal. The combination of an Intel Core i5 processor, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 GPU, and a 144Hz Full HD display delivers smooth and immersive gaming performance that exceeds expectations.
The 512GB SSD is super fast, but the real kicker is the upgrade potential. For just around $100, I was able to upgrade the RAM and expand the storage to 1TB, turning this already powerful machine into a true gaming beast!
HP nailed the design with the sleek Performance Blue finish, and the build quality feels durable and premium. Whether you’re a casual gamer or looking to dip your toes into more serious gaming, this laptop delivers performance and value that’s hard to beat.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a high-quality gaming laptop without breaking the bank!

I got mine on black Friday discount, 300 dollars off retail, so that does factor into my review. This is my 2nd HP budget gaming laptop since 2020. Both have been able to run modern games at low settings. The big draw back to both is A only 8GB of RAM on the standard/budget model, and relatively small SSD drive space by todays bloated game install sizes. Excellent value for money and highly recommend for budget entry level gaming laptop.

Got this for a good price. I would not buy this for a gaming laptop for current games or AAA games. It’s just not going to cut it. I got it for work and it’s more than I need for that.
I one bad thing was it’s only upgradable to 32gb RAM. I looked around online and it looked like 64 would be ok but it’s not. It is also not the simplest to upgrade as you have to remove the entire back. You will need a plastic tool to pry it off after removing the screws.
Overall good for the price. Especially for work. Just don’t fall for the “gaming laptop”. Battery life is also not good but I keep it plugged in.

This was purchased for my 14 y/o as his introduction into gaming laptop/ PC world and HE LOVES IT!!! He has been on that laptop every opportunity he’s allowed. The price point was perfect, as these items can tend to be very pricey. The associate in the store was very helpful with answering any questions that I had. As a single mom who stopped at Nintendo I had PLENTY lol

Good for running games on medium to high settings, dlss can boost frames on lighter games to around 280-500 depending and most modern games on medium with dlss can hit 120-200 or on high can hit 120-160 dlss.
Easy ram/memory upgrades with mine having 64gb which helps speed up moment to moment responsiveness for a lot of tasks.
Can also play things like black ops 6 and halo infinite slightly above 60fps on high with dlss and even way further on medium and low, valorant, tf2, wow, cs2, Fortnite, marvel rivals and many other games can run really well as long as you’re not pushing high end/max settings.
144hz refresh rate is pretty good and the screens pixels are definitely vibrant for the cost.

This Laptop is pretty solid. So I suggest you be careful not to overrun the cpu and the ram too hard. But other than that flaw. This is the best thing I bought so far

Overall, this has been a great experience for me. I havent owned a laptop since 2011 and Im sooo amazed at how much better they are. Lighter, faster, smarter, more options. Love it! The only negative thing is that the light up keyboard does not have the capability of dimming. I also notice when i use the light on the keyboard or I have to use wifi, the battery doesnt last long. Otherwise, i really do like this laptop. It seems to be built well, solid and not flimsy.

My old laptop bit the bullet and I kept putting off getting a new one due to money. I knew I wanted a gaming computer / laptop of some sort but those things can get EXPENSIVE. I found this one on sale at Best Buy and did my research before purchasing. I must say, I am so happy with this product. The graphics are great, the sound quality is lovely, the speed is awesome! I haven’t had it for long but I’m honestly so glad that I invested the money that I did into this product. I would highly recommend this for a more budget-friendly gaming laptop option!

Love it! I can run pretty much every game I want to play. Unreal Engine 5 games don't run too well, but if they have DLSS, you're golden. I upgraded the ram by installing an extra 16gb stick (remember to match them, don't mismatch RAM), and I can run modern games at medium to high settings.
It doesn't get hot or loud, unless you're abusing the stats in games. I recommend installing the Nvidia app. It optimizes the settings automatically.

Purchased at 529 and it far exceeded my expectations. This machine comes with 1 open RAM slot and 1 open NVME slot, so i got a Crucial 32GB DDR4 3200Mhz kit (2x 16GB) and a Team Group 2TB NVME SSD and this thing is a workhorse for my needs.
I really appreciate the muted 'Gamer' theme as the keyboard is backlit in white and the whole appearance is very mature with minimal branding.
13th Gen i5 works well for my needs, and 6GB of dedicated RTX 3050 horsepower is very reliable. I currently use it for esports titles which all get 100+FPS maxed out, RTS titles, and indie games.
If you are realistic about your needs, I think this a great purchase.
At the time of this review this machine is even lower priced at 499, making it a steal. Add some RAM and a 2nd SSD!

This laptop is decently smooth running out of the box. I went ahead and upgraded the ram and it runs a lot smoother. For the price it is well worth it in my opinion.

This gaming laptop is great to start your gaming. It runs games at 144 FPS easily, no lagging with minimal applications opened, and the build of this laptop is sleek as well. I bought this for my brother as ive only ever used Lenovo Gaming Laptops, and he enjoyed it with no issues since.

I got this laptop for light gaming as well as schoolwork and videos. It is reasonably fast, not too heavy, and has a vivid display. However, it does get overloaded on ram sometimes so I may upgrade that to 16 eventually.

Took a shot on this for my daughter's 16 birthday. She's wanted a gaming laptop, but I didn't want to go overboard, and spend an arm and a leg. She got it set up in minutes and loves it. She plays Steam, Roblox, and Minecraft and absolutely loves this laptop. Would 100% recommend.
Great Performance and Value for a Mid-Range Gaming

This HP Victus 15.6" gaming laptop is an absolute powerhouse for the price. The 144Hz Full HD display is super smooth and makes a huge difference in both gaming and everyday use — everything looks fluid and responsive. The Intel Core i5 combined with the RTX 3050 graphics card handles modern games like a champ, especially on medium to high settings.
Boot times and load speeds are lightning fast thanks to the 512GB SSD, and the 8GB of memory is enough for most tasks, though I may upgrade in the future for even better multitasking. Build quality is solid, and the Mica Silver finish gives it a sleek, premium look.
Whether you're a casual gamer, student, or someone looking for a strong all-around laptop, this one delivers great performance without breaking the bank. Highly recommend it!
