Reviews for the HP Omen Transcend 16-u1095ng
With the Omen 16, buyers are spoiled for choice between the "normal" version and the so-called Transcend variant which, in many respects, hardly differ from one another. Read our review to discover how the 16-inch device fares against the competition.

HP’s knack for delivering a lucrative value seems to have faltered with the Omen Transcend 16. While we admire its thinned-down chassis and beautiful OLED screen, it's wholly outclassed in performance and merely meets expectations elsewhere. Also turning in subpar battery life, the Omen Transcend 16 even disappoints in its portable aspirations. Short of a big sale, we’ll pass. You can grab the Editors' Choice-award-winning Lenovo Legion Pro 7i Gen 9 and have extra money for accessories and games leftover for the price of this HP model.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.

74.2%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
