HP OMEN 17.3" Laptop PC 17-cb1003na, Intel i7, 16GB RAM, RTX 2080 Super, 1TB + 512SSD, FHD, Shadow black

I was very unsure about buying it. I thought I'll just be paying for the brand more than anything but honestly, it is an amazing piece of kit. Okay, so it's not the latest spec but this laptop will play anything you throw at it. I've played very demanding games like Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and The Medium (with ray tracing on) and it plays it like a dream. The fans aren't as loud as I thought they might be but that is because before this laptop, I had a PC from PCSpecialist and the fans sounded like jet engines! Since I've had the laptop plugged in since I got it, I can't really comment on the battery life, as it's a gaming laptop, I'm not expecting it to last all day. I've made a few Zoom calls with the built in camera and it's pretty decent, not the best, but definitely not the worst. The quality doesn't seperate itself from the other cameras in the Zoom call so it's absolutely fine. Overall, I'm extremely pleased with this laptop, I haven't put it down since I've got it and even after days without shutdown, there were no signs of the computer slowing down. I'd recommend this laptop to anyone. It does everything!

I've had this laptop for a couple of months now and I'm absolutely delighted with it. I'd gone down the "cheap & cheerful" route with a couple of previous laptop purchases but decided this time around that I wanted a machine that I knew would be up to the task of playing high-end games for the foreseeable future. The performance is everything you'd expect from a laptop with this spec. No issues with heat, the fans do a great job - a bit noisy when the fans are going full blast, but that's to be expected. I'm generally playing with headphones anyway, so not really a concern. 5 stars for the absolutely quality of the machine.

Nice laptop. Thinner than I expected and has a solid feel to it. Its Nice to be able to ramp up the graphics options on my favourite games. The fan does run constantly when plugged in whether it needs it or not, which does have a noticeable noise, but not too bad. I'm sure there must be a fix for this but haven't found it yet. The battery isn't great, even just using zoom I only get an hour, but that's to be expected on a gaming laptop. Overall I'm pretty happy.

I only play one game and that is the massive MMorpg that is World Of Warcraft with it's many expansions. My old laptop could not cope, I would judder through the cities where there was a big population of players, my guild would have to patiently wait for my screen to load - now that has all changed! The picture quality of the Nvidea graphics is awesome, it's almost film realistic, I cannot believe i played on a defective old laptop for so long. I climb spiral staircases with ease, I no longer fall off things, I am not juddering but running smoothly through cities - and the speed and quality of my fighting has improved 200 % - I cannot rate this highly enough- I am a very happy Night Elf! Highly recommend this for WoW players!

This laptop is a super quality piece of kit. I have the 10th gen i7 processor, RTX2070 8gb and 16gb RAM. Set up was only about 20 minutes including adding my preferred security package. I'm a 3D turn based RPG gamer and have bought to be ready for Baldurs Gate 3 so not frying the resources like some of the action gamers will, but it is performing beautifully with ultra settings on titles my old machine (3.8ghz quadcore, GTX 730 and 8GB RAM) couldn't get near to playing at lowest settings. Big thumbs up

This is the third Omen laptop we’ve bought as a family for gaming. I don’t think you can get a better one in this price range. Really impressed with the new model. One bonus is that it isn’t partitioned - all 1TB of space is on the C Drive. Great gamers laptop. My kids love them. Setting it up couldn’t be easier and no bloatware either. This will always be our go to brand.

I wanted a laptop to develop VR games with my Oculus Quest and this does the job perfectly. I had no issues in already almost 1 month. This laptop is by far an absolute beast. I would recommend it to anyone interested in VR, it substitutes your PC. If I have any future issues, I will update this review.

Awsome for gaming, not as noisy as I expected, other reviews said was a little noisy I don't find so, very quick, well built and light as well, proper gaming beast indeed
