Hey, You Don’t Dress Like a Gamer!

This new Omen 15 marks a significant change of design direction for HP’s gaming laptops. The trapezoidal looks of previous models (see the Omen X 2S) have been replaced with conventionally squared-off edges. It’s also devoid of color accents, with branding reduced to subtle Omen lettering and a small reflective square on the lid. It’s like the Omen line suddenly went to business school.

Despite its more austere look, the Omen 15 isn’t boring. Up close, its sturdy aluminum keyboard surround and palm rest give it a premium vibe, while the rest of the chassis is good-quality plastic. Inward-sloped edges help it look thinner than its 0.89-inch thickness suggests. The rest of the chassis is trim enough, at 14.1 by 9.4 inches. Though HP lists the Omen 15 at 5.42 pounds, it registered a more acceptable 4.6 pounds on my scale, about the norm for gaming notebooks in this class.

Smooth Screen, Solid Input Devices

The Omen 15’s 144Hz anti-glare screen is plenty bright and colorful—HP rates it for 300 nits and 72 percent coverage of the NTSC gamut. It also offers wide viewing angles so the picture never washes out. The panel lacks support for frame-rate-smoothing technologies such as G-Sync or FreeSync, but these are rarely seen outside of much more expensive gaming notebooks. The Omen 15 also does well in connectivity by offering four USB ports (three Type-A and one Type-C, all version 3.2 Gen 1 supporting 5Gbps signaling rates), HDMI 2.0a and mini DisplayPort video outputs, an Ethernet jack, a full-size SD card reader, and an audio combo (headphone/microphone) jack. Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 come courtesy of its Intel AX200 wireless card. One deficiency that the Omen 15 shares with most gaming notebooks in this price range is a lack of built-in biometric features, such as a fingerprint reader or face-recognition webcam. The ho-hum image quality from its 720p webcam is also status quo.

A Thoughtfully Laid-Out Keyboard

As laptop screen bezels have shrunk—the Omen 15’s screen is about as wide as the laptop itself—so has the available width for keyboards. Rather than cram in a number pad, HP included a desktop-like cluster of navigation keys and—gasp!—full-size arrow keys in a most productive use of the space.
