The HP OmniBook X 17 is an entry-level choice in the upper mid-range segment, launched in 2024. This laptop excels at professional and creative workloads. With an overall GadgetDisc score of 60, it holds its own in a crowded market.
The Intel Core Ultra 7 256V with 8 cores boosting up to 4.8 GHz handles multitasking and everyday workloads with ease. Integrated graphics cover everyday tasks and light creative work, though dedicated gaming is limited. Professional workloads like video editing, 3D rendering, and large dataset processing are well within reach of this configuration.
The 17.3-inch IPS panel delivers 1920×1080 at 60Hz — a reliable choice for productivity and media consumption. Additional features include touch input, adding versatility for creative and interactive use. The display score of 55 suggests the panel is adequate but not a standout feature.
16GB LPDDR5X at 7467 MT/s of RAM is the modern sweet spot — sufficient for most users including developers, creators, and power users. 512GB of NVMe SSD storage covers the basics, though power users may want to supplement with external drives.
At 2.12kg (4.7 lbs), this laptop is on the heavier side and measures 17.9mm thin. Battery life offers strong all-day endurance (~15hr) backed by a 83Wh cell, keeping you unplugged through long workdays.
Port selection includes Thunderbolt 4, 2× USB-C, 1× USB-A, HDMI 2.1, SD card reader, covering most professional and everyday connection needs. Wireless is handled by the latest Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.
