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.
