I love this laptop so much! It has been genuinely amazing to use nearly every day. The 3060 and i7 in this are no slouch at all. Every single game will run without issue and at high settings. There was a bit of bloatware, but i cannot dock a dtar for that, all pre-built computers (desktops included and even phones now) have it. Simply uninstall them. It's battery life when gaming isn't great but nobody expects that with gaming laptops, the power brick's cord is long enough to keep it plugged in pretty much anywhere. The build quality is great and very nice to the touch. I was worried about a squishy keyboad, worry not there is no squish! The trackpad is useless while gaming, like any laptop, get a bluetooth or wired mouse / controller if you'd like to play games.

Love love love this computer! Snappy 14-core i7-12700H! I was heavily considering a purchase of a laptop with i9 12800HX, basically the top of the top, but this Omen is doing just fine! Using for WFH, VMs, gaming, av editing, general internet usage. 100+ fps in many many current games, at 2560x1440! Blows me away. Way better than an Alienware I had purchased for $1000 more. Had to return, as a couple days after I purchased I had dead pixels all over screen. Exchanged. on another note I hope native Linux support down the road is not an issue. Intel rep at Best Buy was very helpful in choosing a new cpu. Battery life is not long, which is typical for a real multicore cpu. no silly macbook with essentially an iPhone processor. 2-3 hrs on battery maybe 4 with switching to Integrated graphics. Extremely happy with purchase.

Good laptop for gaming but not the best for editing. Max I can edit on this is 1080p in Davinci Resolve due to the GPU only having 6Gb of VRAM that I didn't find it had until later.
Got it as a replacement for my stolen Omen 15 4K laptop which felt smoother & had a better looking screen. File explorer on this particular laptop is very buggy, haven't been able to fix it. Could be because I got it refurbished.
Great refresh rate but not bright or very color accurate. Would only recommend it if you just plan to do light work & game. For video editing, I'd look elsewhere & get something future proof.

The cooling could be a little more open. But for a laptop, a 3060 with an i7 and 165 hz screen. Its a beast.

This Omen truly does rocket and rock it. The graphics are fast, clear and the best one I've used to date. The keys are also my favorite.

Broke writhing first week. The device just doesn’t seem to work properly very slow and crashes even on the browser and overheats
A:Hello, Nick. Thanks for your question. RAM is one of the easier components to replace. It does require removing the bottom cover of the laptop to access the motherboard. The instructions can be found on pages 33-35 of the Maintenance and Service Guide under the Manuals tab on this webpage: https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/omen-by-hp-16.1-inch-gaming-laptop-16-k0000/2101129690/manuals Or you can have the Geek Squad at Best Buy upgrade the RAM for you. We recommend reaching out to the Geek Squad for the current pricing. As long as you are careful with the upgrade, it will not void the warranty. You will need to purchase the 32 GB DDR5-4800 RAM SODIMM (laptop) RAM. The model of this laptop is the HP OMEN 16-k0023dx. If you need further assistance, we recommend reaching out to HP Support: https://support.hp.com
A:Yes, it certainly would be a good choice. It's got fast 12th generation i7 processor, plenty of RAM for all but incredibly complex images, and a nice fast graphics card.
A:Thank you for the question. Yes, in addition to the Smart Pin charger, the 16-k0023dx has Thunderbolt 4 USB-C ports that support power delivery and HP Sleep and Charge.
A:Thank you for the question. No. Being a laptop, interior space is at a premium, and there is no room to add an HDD. You could connect an external drive.
