Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'm no professional gamer but this is a really nice laptop for the gamer like me. I wanted nice graphics with very little lag time and that's what the Omen delivers. With 5g wifi connection, it has some seriously competitive speed numbers. My frame rate is running around 100 and the picture quality is very nice. Crisp colors and no buffering issues yet. The only exception would be to have a bigger ssd drive. The 128 is nice for booting the system in around 12 seconds from start to finish but it would be nice to be able to load the game software on for faster control. You can load the games but there is not much room left when you get done. 1 game is alot of file size nowadays. Well worth the money spent.

This is my first gaming laptop. I usually play my games on either my Xbox One X or my PS 4 Pro. I heard that PC gaming was a whole different experience so I wanted to try it out. I upgraded the memory from 8 gb to 12 gb. When the price of the SSD comes down I will put a bigger HD in it. It is a very fast computer.

This laptop gaming computer allows my daughter to both complete her homework, which makes me happy and be able to play all the games she loves which makes her happy. Best of both worlds!!!

Runs great. Best quality for the price. Completely satisfied.

Good gaming computer, better than Dell, like the style color, performance still trying.

bought this gaming pc for my stepson who wanted one I decided to go with a laptop style so he can use it anywhere without the hassle of a bulky desk top....i researched gaming laptops for 3 months before making the purchase...cant wait to give it to him he's gonna love it

I've had this little beast for a few months now and personally haven't had any technical problems. The only issues I have with the laptop is the screen isn't as bright as some of my lower end models (if you'll be using it in dynamic lighting environments or outside, this may be an issue) and considering that the speakers are branded as Bang & Olufsen, I was expecting more punch in the sound (same deal, I have lower end laptops that are louder). As far as performance, it's actually a lot better than I expected. I do a lot of photo/video editing (<30MP/1080P), so I use Photoshop/Premiere/After Effects/Illustrator/etc regularly. I've never edited anything bigger than music videos and commercials on this laptop (I have a custom desktop for the heavy lifting) but the only time I've ever seen a hiccup is playback with heavily tracked effects. Renders much faster than expected (I've never seen more than 10mins, using Adobe Media Encoder). Not sure exactly how the gaming performance is but I've ran Fortnite a few times and it looks better/smoother (in my opinion) than on both my Xbone and PS4.

Great gaming laptop for beginner gamers! Loved it!

Great laptop for my intended use. Play some games, but also use mostly for photo editing and other projects such as short video editing.

Love the quality and features of this laptop! Compared prices online and BestBuy price was the BEST!!! Customer service was also great, especially since the customer service rep was knowledgeable about the product! Will definitely purchase from BestBuy in the future!!!

Bought this for my son and he is very satisfied. Quick processor, nice to have both SSD and large HDD for game, photo and movie storage. All around great buy!

I have been paying attention to the Hp Omen series laptop for some time. The original release was an amazing laptop that I didn’t pull the trigger on, instead opting for an Alienware. The second generation Omens weren’t quite as well appointed as the original release. This laptop makes up for the second gen Omen misstep. Lighter than my Alienware 15, thinner, and with the 1050 ti, it is capable of running Call Of Duty WWII with ease. The only trade off is space for expansion inside the case. Another M.2 slot would be nice, but not a deal breaker. If you are on the fence or think the sub 1000 price won’t give you a quality laptop, hop off of the fence and buy it already.

Great experience so far! Smooth and fast - no lag time at all! Great appearance as well. Speakers from Bang & Olufsen are amazing - very clear and loud!

Bought this laptop play light to medium gaming and light VR. It more than exceeded my expectations. I’ve been using it with Windows Mixed Reality and has run ever VR Game I’ve thrown at it. Including Doom VR. For none VR. I’ve been able to run most games at Ultra setting at 1080p. This included Star Wars Battlefront 2. Laptop feels sturdy and hinge doesn’t have too much wobble. Speakers sound decent and fans do not get too loud under full load.

I'm not a computer expert so take my review with a grain of salt. Just like my rating, I would say the graphics is a 4 out of 5. I honestly don't think it's super great, but it IS above average, hence it being 4/5. I honestly don't know what people were talking about for the battery life. It works very well for me, playing games on this laptop without the charger. And like I said before, I'm not an expert on computers so I did run into a few problems. My first time playing League of Legends on this laptop, the screen completely froze but I could still here the sounds. I had to switch the settings to low in order for it to work properly as well as to make it not lag. Kind of disappointed I couldn't play LOL in HD. Also had the same problem with playing Skyrim. Had to switch the settings to low (but the graphics still looked great nontheless). The second issue I had was the lack of space in this laptop. For whatever reason, I don't have enough space to download a lot of games on my Steam and Origins account. Tried searching the web in order to clear up the disk space but to no avail. The last issue I had is the design. I wasn't it expecting to be thin. But the real problem is the bottom part of the laptop. I bring laptops to my bed and place it on my legs. It's not really comfortable because of the holes on the bottom and the edges on the side. TLDR: Great graphics, average design, poor storage space.

Very fast computer for the beginner gamer. You can stream and game at the same time with no lag time. Son is super happy

I bought this for my son and it performs wonderfully. It plays his games with no lagging on ultra graphic settings.

Excellent Black Friday deal on a great laptop. I originally bought a different Omen laptop a few weeks before Black Friday. I received an email from Best Buy on their Black Friday deals and saw this laptop, which had better specs than the original Omen I bought and it was cheaper! I returned my original purchase without any problems and bought this one instead.

This Laptop is a great bang for your buck. If you are a gamer on a budget then this is the Laptop for you.

Bought this for my son who is going off to college this fall. Plays all the games and does his homework.
