Quote from: NikoB on July 25, 2024, 23:37:46It's just a shame - noisy and frequently running coolers. when the SoC consumes a ridiculous 18 W in such a case!

Otherwise, an extremely overrated laptop with a video card that has no prospects for real games 2024 with 60fps+ for native 2.5k...

And the picture of shame is completed by the power button built into the numpad. HP has gone completely crazy with greed! At a price of $1900+ for this, there must be a reference keyboard on par with the old Thinkpads! And it's simply shameful that the morons in the development department are still pushing the row of Esc, F1..F2 keys narrowed by 2 times in height into the 17.3 case! Are you sure you don't use hard drugs there? flappy bird

As well as installing a shameful 16:9 screen with a shameful contrast, and even 2.5k, instead of 4k with perfect compatibility with fhd mode at the pixel level for video and games!

Again, to the shame of HP, despite the fact that the 8845HS has 2 built-in USB40 ports, none of them are intentionally brought out, and this is in the Omen series!

The red price for another pathetic HP product is $1300.

Not only that, the screen is 3/4 inferior to Adobe RGB which only proves that they don't know where the laptop is going.

I expected a machine with more GPU and certainly more than 32GB of RAM.

Yeah. Can't really argue with that.
USB4 should be standard, and more than one.
Not just that, the screen being far short of 3/4 Adobe RGB just prove that they have no idea where the laptop is going.

I'll wait for the the bigger beasts to appear, with more GPU and definitely more than 32GB RAM.

I'm confused by this whole machine.

The Omen 17 shows impressively what a 17-inch gaming laptop can be, offering midrange performance at a stable and high level, while the cooling works at a surprisingly moderate noise level thanks to its successful control implementation. Only some of the allrounder capabilities are slightly left behind.
