HP's Omen 17 review

2017-10-30
hola this bad boy right here is the HP omen it's a 17 inch laptop that can be configured with an nvidia geforce 1070 that means if you're a gamer it's got what you want that 1070 GPU will play pretty much everything you throw at it the graphically demanding rise of the Tomb Raider played at 30 frames per second in 4k and at a glorious 60 frames per second in Full HD you run games like overwatch and perfectly smooth 4k that's if you choose the 4k screen that is the omen 17 gives you the option to choose between a 1080p or a 4k screen I'd personally recommend the 1080p screen I didn't find the extra resolution to be worth the drop in battery life you'll pay at least sixteen hundred dollars for a 1070 equipped even if you're not all about gaming grunt the base model with a geforce 1050 GPU starts at 1100 and there are a few options in between at 6.3 pounds The Omen isn't exactly light but it's lighter than many of its 17-inch competitors it is decently mobile for a desktop replacement but it's still not something you take to the cafe or a park to do some work with there are lighter gaming laptops out there and more powerful ones to fuel them cost under $2,000 The Omen is a great laptop because it strikes a balance between affordability might and mobility head back to CNET for more details in the full written review
