HP OMEN 16-ap0801sa 16" 1920 x 1200 pixels AMD Ryzen 9 32GB 1000GB SSD NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Windows 11 Home

Absolutely brilliant! Best laptop I've ever owned. Super powerful and will play and do literally anything at light speed, staying cool and quiet while it does. There are many ways to customise performance too... Omen hub, AMD adrenaline, MSI afterburner to name a few. I'm really happy with this machine. It also comes with a FreeSync premium edition screen so say goodbye to input lag and screen tearing. Instead, say hello to smooth frame delivery and jitter free camera turns. Don't think, just buy. One of the best gaming laptops out there if you're on a budget. Don't confuse that statement with assuming this is a budget laptop in any way. It's basically a desktop-grade portable computer. 10/10

Excellent Item better than expected, never used a amd item before always had Intel will be interesting finding out how well it works, but at the moment running faster than my old laptop; excelent graphics and nice size screen and good value for what I need it for D2&D3 and remove all the extras I don't need will enjoy using for a few years; recomend this make as battery life seems to run down quite slow.

Love it, just remember to do your updates, however recently the screen has developed a fault and it keeps crashing sent for repair or refund

Very good product. Was worried how it will be first time buying this expensive product from Amazon. It's been 5 months and still working fine. Thanks

Update: Black Friday Sale on this laptop is a scam - I got this laptop months ago for the same price as the black friday sale price, it was virtually inflated to £1,599.99 to appear as on sale, this is pure evil, you are not saving £400, reduced starts from 2 to 1 for the shady business practice. -- original review unchanged -- I bought this due to the specs for some gaming and mostly heavy processing tasks for work - 32Gb RAM, RTX 5070, Ryzen 9, 1080p display. The laptop did seemed snappy but it has major deal breaking issues which resulted in my returning it back and requesting a refund. Laptop would crash to OMEN logo almost every time I start a new application. Loading up a browser, CRASH and restart, loading up a game, CRASH and restart, after the machine boots back up, the application would load just fine until I started something else. I tried connecting a bluetooth controller (PS5) and bluetooth driver crashed, not appearing in device manager, searching in start menu for bluetooth would show me that there's no bluetooth support available on the device, eventually after multiple reboots the bluetooth driver came back and I lost the will to use this laptop after that. When it works, it works great, I was able to load up Final Fantasy 7 - Rebirth on high graphics and it would run at 60 fps no issues but I could not deal with drivers breaking and crashing of windows, not for a machine that costs over a grand. I won't say to stay away from this machine as it's a good value for the money and it performs well and I might have gotten a dodgy model but the issues are something that the public should be aware of. This machine would also get very hot and very noisy, which is acceptable as it's a gaming machine, so don't expect this to run cool as it hits 90*c+ easily. Trackpad leaves many things to be desired, it's plastic, rough texture which makes the finger not wanting to slide on it very well, can be overlooked with a mouse, but not something you'd want to use for a long time. Keyboard is OK, not the best, not the worst, just OK. I couldn't get RGB to work the way i like it as there was only one animation option available to me, but funny enough every time it went into a crash, the keyboard would have the wave RGB animation which is what i wanted but only get it during the PC restarting... It's a heavy thing, so don't expect to have it on your legs for a long time, it will also get very hot so you'd want this on a desk, putting it on my legs would block the intake fans from both sides resulting in even more heat.. TLDR: looks good, feels plastic, hot and loud, potential is there but software and hardware don't seem to play well together (for me at least), buy at your own risk,

Been using it for a couple days The speed and performance is good for what I need it to do. I'm only going to be using it on holiday for more intense games on the go, but there are a few things I'll point out. The resolution is 1980x1200p and aspect ratio is 16:10 So if you watch any videos on YouTube, you'll get black lines on the top and bottom. I'm sure there's probably a workaround but I don't know of any yet The screen makes games amd seem a bit dark. The brightness is okay but the picture quality makes games seem dark, when too bright, it saturates the image on screen which makes things look a bit blurry. But the thing I will note that this is the cheapest 5070 ryzen 9 laptop I've seen. I've had no crashes, no problems with Bluetooth, everything works great and I get a good framerate in games like Black ops 7 and Battlefield 6 easily getting 144fps even on very high settings. Extreme will take it to 120 but still impressive If you want a cheap laptop with good specs but aren't bothered about the monitor then you should be fine as it's a decent monitor but it's just not the best out there. As I've mentioned, I'm only using this for something to play demanding games natively on the go for holiday, I will be more than happy playing this in a hotel if it's all I got with me. Edit: I have encountered numerous crashes after using this laptop for a couple months. They were pretty consistent and I did not know of any fixes I've returned this laptop... If you encounter crashes as well, I would suggest you to return it. Shame because the performance is really good.

Amazing laptop great CPU, and GPU , really good for 3d modeling and rendering as well as playing games, It's a beast on unleashed mode and battery is great too after optimising the laptop, The laptop stays cool as well not getting to hot and is easy to setup

Very good laptop
