85 out of 100 medium confidence 13 reviews

This HP laptop impresses with its powerful 16-core Intel chip, 32GB of RAM, and stunning 3K OLED display, delivering top-tier performance for both gaming and productivity. Users praise its premium build, excellent cooling, and long battery life in eco mode, though the soldered RAM and lower-wattage RTX 5070 GPU are noted limitations. The open-box value is frequently highlighted as a major plus.

Pros
  • Powerful 16-core Intel processor
  • Stunning 3K OLED display
  • Premium all-metal build
  • Excellent cooling system
  • Long battery life in eco mode
Cons
  • Soldered RAM (no upgrade possible)
  • Underpowered RTX 5070 GPU (75W max)
  • Short battery life in normal mode
  • Only two USB-A ports on right side
  • Premium price without discount
