HP’s Omen gaming laptops are known to deliver powerful desktop-level performance. The laptop on sale packs a 16.1 inch (2560 x 1440) anti-glare display with 165Hz refresh rate and 3ms response time. Its hardware specs sheet lists a 3.5-GHz Intel Core i7-12700H 14-core CPU, 16GB of RAM and 1TB SSD. Nvidia’s powerful GeForce RTX 3060 GPU with 6GB of dedicated memory provides the graphics muscle.

We didn’t test this exact laptop, however we reviewed the 10th Gen Intel-charged HP Omen 15. It earned a 4 out of 5-star Editor’s Choice award rating for its stunning display, great sound and overall power. We expect the laptop with its upgraded 12th generation chip to be on par and deliver excellent gaming and multitasking performance.
HP Omen 16 reviews at Best Buy average 4.7 out of 5-stars due to its speedy performance, value for the price and reliability. One owner confirms it runs demanding games like Warzone and Battlefield 2042 on high/ultimate settings at full resolution up to 120fps.
