4.3 / 5 stars (70 reviews) - Amazing versatile future-proof computer; Omen has impressed me again!
Latest review: January 30, 2019 | Model: HP OMEN 15 5HS21UA#ABA
This is my second HP Omen laptop. I still have the original, almost proto-typical, release of the Omen to the US in 2014. After all these years my old one is still alive, has become a desktop replacement, has 2 monitors, a mouse, keyboard, other peripherals, and a cooling pad-every port is maxed out and still works. HP PROVED to me that Omen is a worthy investment and I am on my second one (not sure about Omen towers)... There is nothing stopping me from converting everything to SSD and upgrading to 32 GB RAM in a few years. HP listened and made upgrades easier. The graphics card is about as good as it gets right now for an affordable gaming laptop and the GTX 860m in my old one still kicks butt! I just ran an intense GIS operation and it rendered with ease on this new laptop. So it is great for scientists, gamers, and people who know they can convert this little guy into a desktop whenever you need to set up a HQ to get work done. Did I mention the 6 gigs of graphics memory is amazing? Without that amount there would be no need to get the newest card. 12 core 8th gen i-7 climbs to an amazing speed and multitasks like a beast. This build is SOLID for performance, and I would say the config is the perfect config for a budget laptop, but I do not feel like I budgeted because I love it.

The HP Omen 15 packs a punch in terms of style and performance. It delivers a solid display, decent speakers and a comfortable keyboard. However, I can't look past the display's slightly dim nature and the way the speakers can buzz at higher volumes. If you're interested in going for a more premium laptop, you can get the Alienware m15 for $2,099, which comes equipped with similar specs that offer stronger performance, a much more colorful display, better gaming utilities and longer battery life. However, if you're looking to spend under $2,000, the HP Omen 15 is a solid bet for a good mainstream gaming laptop.

The HP Omen 15t has a few things going for it, the biggest of which being the price. For $849, you get a lightweight and stylish 15-inch system that can play games at 1080p on lower settings and can transition to a good productivity machine when you need it. However, a dim display, slow transfer speeds and below-average battery life are more hindrances than mere compromises... If you want a system that can play games reasonably well without cleaning out your bank account, the HP Omen 15t is worth a look But there are better options.

More than a few months ago, the HP Omen came out as a pleasant surprise for gamers late in the year, and so this quick refresh makes this machine all the sweeter. In case you were on the fence about buying a Nvidia GTX 860M-powered machine last December, I can verifiably say that the Nvidia GTX 960M update on this machine only makes it even better... Of course, picking the HP Omen has its own appeal. It's a light, compact 15-inch machine that is by far the best looking gaming laptop to come out in a long time. Though this machine comes outfitted with a modest set of parts, this rig hardly looks or feels like an entry level machine. And frankly, the excellent build quality and unique design found in the HP Omen makes it well worth the premium.
