Review: HP Omen 16 (AMD, 2023)

It weighs a little more than 5 pounds, but this beefy laptop is a gaming powerhouse—if you can get used to the keyboard.

Earth-shattering performance across the board. Decent price (but absolutely watch for sales). Surprisingly good battery life for a gaming rig.

Keyboard is awkward in use. Somewhat homely design. Quite a dim screen.

HP Omen 16 (2023, 13th Gen Core) Review

Lively high-end gameplay ; Room for boatloads of RAM and storage ; Decent array of ports

Lower frame rates than top competitors ; Full performance requires noisy cooling mode ; Lackluster display and battery life ; Unremarkable build quality for the price

The HP Omen 16 is a just-fine gaming laptop with speedy performance, but our test configuration does little to set itself apart from the field, considering the steep price.

HP OMEN 16 (2023) review: Updated with new internals, minor design tweaks

Our HP OMEN 16 gaming laptop review looks at a configurable Intel-powered laptop with a 16.1-inch 240Hz QHD display and even better cooling technology.

Sturdy, low-key, slim build ; Excellent performance as tested ; Larger 16.1-inch 240Hz QHD display ; Plenty of ports including HDMI 2.1 ; OMEN Tempest Cooling works well ; Configurable at purchase ; Upgradeable ; 1080p FHD webcam ; Fairly priced for...

Runs a bit loud in performance mode ; Depending on setup, can feel the heat coming from right exhaust on mouse hand

Compared to last year’s configuration I reviewed with the AMD processor, the Intel HP OMEN 16 gaming laptop performed much better this year. The tweaks to the cooling system, latest components, and 16.1-inch 240Hz QHD display make for a solid gaming...

HP Omen 16 review: a mid-range gaming laptop with a great display

The HP Omen 16 is a laptop that looks great but lacks serious gaming power.

Up-to-date modern design ; Midrange performance ; Great port selection

1080p resolution ; A lot of fan noise ; Poor battery life

The HP Omen 16 (n0003na) has a lot to commend it. The 16.1-inch display gives great screen real estate, has fantastic resolution, and boasts brilliant viewing angles. The laptop case is a modern and up-to-date gaming design with rugged edges. There are...

HP Omen 16 (2023) Review

If you have over a grand to spend on a gaming laptop, you have a lot of choices. The HP Omen 16 (2023) is one you should consider.

High-quality 165Hz Full HD display ; Excellent sound system ; Top-notch keyboard ; Long battery life

No connectors for a second SSD ; Some backlight bleed ; 16:9 aspect ratio

For the price, the HP Omen 16 is one of the best-balanced gaming laptops on the market, but the absence of a connector for a second SSD and a dated 16:9 aspect ratio could give some potential buyers pause.

HP Omen 16 (2023) review: High-end gaming at a competitive price

The Omen 16 is a no-compromise laptop that's priced well against the competition, but how does it perform?

High-end gaming performance ; Competitive price ; Good connectivity ; 240Hz display

Display could be brighter ; Speakers aren?t very powerful ; Modest battery life

It’s not perfect, and the battery life will keep it stuck at home most of the time. However, the Omen 16 provides high-end gaming performance and silky smooth 240Hz display at a competitive price.

HP Omen 16 AMD 2023 Review: A solid gaming laptop for a pretty good price

The HP Omen 16 AMD 2023 is a great choice if you're looking for a gaming laptop that also performs well in productivity tasks, without breaking the bank

Pros: ; – Solid performance thanks to the CPU and GPU package ; – Solid performance for the price ; – No non-sense design ; – Improved cooling design ; – Bang & Olufsen speakers ; – Solid build quality ; – High refresh rate display ; – Pretty solid...

– Battery life ; – Fans can get a little loud ; – Materials used are a fingerprint magnet ; – 1080P display could have used with more contrast ; – Can be a bit cumbersome to carry around ; – Missing an SD card reader

The HP Omen 16 AMD faces some really tough competition from its competitors. However, it has one major advantage up its sleeve — its price. Priced at Rs 1,39,999, the HP Omen 16 comes with a CPU and GPU package that performs really well, especially...

HP Omen 16

Not only does the HP Omen 16 improve upon its previous design flaws but it does so with a clear focus on maintaining the laptop’s famous cooling performance. The use of the AMD Ryzen 7840HS processor further expands the usability of HP Omen 16 in...

Great cooling performance ; Colour accurate high refresh rate display ; Great CPU and GPU combination

Speakers are a let down ; Touchpad needs improvement ; Could use a 16:10 ratio display in the future
