Verdict — Super Lightweight With Careful Compromises
The HP OmniBook 7 Aero 13 manages to avoid a lot of the pitfalls that plague many other ultralight 1 kg laptops. Processor performance, battery life, port options, and chassis rigidity are all better than expected for the weight for a higher sense of quality. The hardware is much closer to a professional EliteBook laptop than it is to a cheaper Pavilion option. We particularly appreciate the quiet fan noise, full sRGB colors as standard and relatively easy servicing which isn't something we can say for most subnotebooks.
Cutbacks are inevitable when you have such a lofty weight target of just 1 kg, but each one has been carefully selected as to minimize the impact to the core user experience. Features like Turbo Boost, HDR, touchscreen, high refresh rates, Thunderbolt, and battery capacity are all either limited or unsupported in order to keep weight as low as possible, but the target audience of travelers or students who just want a decently powerful and super lightweight subnotebook might be ok with the missing features since battery life and rigidity are still very strong. If your daily workloads consist of browsing, streaming, and light editing on-the-go, then you're not going to care for the limited docking capabilities or relatively poor graphics performance.
For potential future revisions, we'd love to see a larger clickpad with more display options supporting VRR and at least an extra USB-C port along the left edge for easier charging.
Users who want something more powerful in the subnotebook category can consider the thinner yet heavier OmniBook Ultra 14.

The OmniBook 7 Aero 13 is HP's latest subnotebook to prioritize weight reduction over most secondary or auxiliary features. It is an evolution of the older Pavilion Aero 13 but with higher-end materials and hardware to reflect the OmniBook 7 family. Users who want the lightest 13-inch notebook they can find should consider the OmniBook 7 Aero 13 on their list.
Our test unit is an upper configuration with the Ryzen AI 7 350 CPU, 32 GB of soldered RAM, and 1920 x 1200 IPS display for approximately $1300. Other SKUs may ship with 16 GB of RAM instead or have a denser 2560 x 1600 resolution display, but all options have integrated graphics and IPS only.
The OmniBook 7 Aero 13 competes with other ultralight subnotebooks like the LG Gram series, Samsung Galaxy Book series, or the Asus ZenBook S 13 series.

Specifications
Case — Lighter Than It Looks
A notable drawback to superlight 1 kg subnotebooks like the LG Gram, Toshiba Portege, Samsung Galaxy Book, or Asus ZenBook S 13 is that their bases and lids tend to flex much more easily than "regular" weight subnotebooks like the Dell XPS, Lenovo Yoga 9, or HP Spectre models. To our surprise, the base of the OmniBook 7 Aero 13 is quite rigid for better-than-expected first impressions. The lid is slightly more susceptible to flexing, but it is again much less than on competing models like the LG Gram or Galaxy Book.
HP claims a starting weight of just under 997 g for the base 16 GB configuration, but even our 32 GB test unit is only a hair heavier at 1.06 kg. The model is slightly lighter than the ZenBook S 13 while being noticeably thicker.
Connectivity
There are a fair number of integrated ports despite the very low weight. In fact, the HP offers more ports than on the ZenBook S13. The only downside is that the USB-C ports are not Thunderbolt compatible and so the docking capabilities of the OmniBook 7 Aero 13 are not as strong as most Intel-powered Ultrabooks.
Furthermore, the right side of the HP can feel cramped with cables. Moving one USB-C port to the left edge would have allowed for better charging ergonomics much like on the Razer Blade 14.
Communication
Though our test unit ships with Wi-Fi 6 connectivity only, other configurations are available for Wi-Fi 6E compatibility. There are no Wi-Fi 7 options.
Webcam
A 5 MP webcam comes standard with IR and a physical shutter.
Maintenance
The bottom panel is secured by just four small Philips screws for easy servicing. Thankfully, the model doesn't hide any additional screws beneath the rubber feet unlike on many other HP laptops.
There isn't much to upgrade once inside as RAM is soldered and the system only supports up to a single M.2 SSD.
Sustainability
The outer cover consists of recycled magnesium-aluminum while the keyboard and speakers consist of recycled plastics in various percentages. The packaging itself is all cardboard and paper with no plastic.
Accessories And Warranty
There are no extras in the box other than the AC adapter and paperwork. The usual one-year limited manufacturer warranty applies if purchased in the US.
Input Devices — Comfy Keyboard But A Tight Clickpad
Keyboard
The typing experience is closer to an EliteBook than to a Pavilion which is a good thing as the EliteBook series has some of the sharpest keys on a non-gaming laptop for comfortable typing. However, clatter is generally louder than on most laptops and some users may not like the short travel of the keys.
Touchpad
The 11.5 x 6.5 cm clickpad is noticeably smaller than the clickpads on the Dragonfly G4 (12 x 8 cm) and ZenBook S 13 (13 x 8.1 cm). While cursor control is smooth and reliable, the small surface area feels cramped and the soft feedback when clicking isn't very satisfying.
Display — Basic 60 Hz IPS Only
Just two display options are available as follows. Note that there are no touchscreen options likely to keep weight at a minimum:
- 1920 x 1200, IPS, matte, 400-nits, 100% sRGB, 60 Hz
- 2560 x 1600, IPS, matte, 400-nits, 100% sRGB, 60 Hz
The panels are quite basic when compared to other subnotebooks where OLED, HDR support, and higher refresh rates are common. The OmniBook Ultra or OmniBook X, for example, offer more visual features than the OmniBook 7 Aero 13 that multimedia users would appreciate. The viewing experience here is therefore good but nothing special. We do, however, appreciate that full sRGB coverage comes standard no matter what configuration users choose.

* ... smaller is better
The display doesn't come well-calibrated and so average grayscale and color deltaE values out of the box are underwhelming at 6.5 and 4.35, respectively. Color temperature is also on the cool side at almost 7500K. Calibrating the display ourselves with an X-Rite colorimeter would improve average grayscale and colors to just 0.5 and 0.58, respectively, while also improving the color temperature. We recommend applying our calibrated ICM profile above to better exploit the full sRGB display.

The 400-nit display is decently bright for outdoor conditions, but we feel it could be brighter considering how lightweight and travel-friendly the OmniBook 7 Aero 13 is supposed to be. Unfortunately, HP does not offer brighter options which would have made this OmniBook even better for outdoor use. Ultrabright 1000-nit options are only available on select Elite models for now.
Performance — Great For The Size And Weight
Testing Conditions
We set Windows to Performance mode prior to running the benchmarks below.
Processor
The AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 is a fast CPU considering how small and lightweight the OmniBook Aero form factor is. Our system outperforms almost every recently released 13-inch laptop including the Core H-powered MSI Summit E13 AI Evo. The Framework Laptop 13.5 is noticeably faster, but it is also significantly heavier as well.
Downgrading to the Ryzen AI 5 340 is expected to impact multi-thread performance by about 15 percent based on our time with the Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 14. The OmniBook 7 Aero 13 maxes out at the Ryzen AI 7 350 and so there is unfortunately no Ryzen AI 9 365 option; users will have to look towards the larger Razer Blade 14 for that level of performance.
Turbo Boost performance is very limited as our Stress Test section below will show.

Stress Test
When initiating Prime95 stress, the CPU would boost to 3.4 GHz and 40 W until quickly falling and stabilizing at 3.0 GHz and 32 W a short moment later in order to maintain a core temperature of just under 70 C. Turbo Boost potential is therefore very short-lived which is unsurprising given the small cooling solution and high prioritization on overall weight reduction. The Ryzen AI 9 in the heavier 13.5-inch Framework Laptop, for example, can sustain 46 W for at least a minute before falling to 33 W when running the same stress test.
Core temperatures would remain relatively cool even when under load. When running Cyberpunk 2077, for example, the CPU would hover just below 60 C compared to 70 C or 80 C on the Dragonfly G4 or aforementioned Framework Laptop, respectively.
| CPU Clock (GHz) | GPU Clock (MHz) | Average CPU Temperature (°C) | |
| System Idle | -- | -- | 33 |
| Prime95 Stress | 3.0 | -- | 69 |
| Prime95 + FurMark Stress | 1.9 | 704 | 56 |

System Performance
PCMark 10 scores are high especially in regards to the Productivity subtest even after rerunning the benchmark to confirm the initial results.
AIDA64 memory copy and write results are very good for such a lightweight system powered by a midrange CPU. The high scores can be attributed to the 7500 MT/s soldered RAM whereas most other subnotebooks have slower <6000 MT/s memory.

GPU Performance
The Radeon 860M is a lower-end integrated GPU sitting below the Radeon 880M and 890M. It performs comfortably in between the weaker Iris Xe 96 EUs and faster Radeon 880M in terms of raw graphics potential. For gaming purposes, however, most titles will have to be set to Low for a crisper FHD image resolution.
Downgrading to the Radeon 840M configuration will impact graphics performance quite significantly by up to 25 percent.

Emissions — Small But Quiet
System Noise
The ~60 mm fan is quite large for a 13-inch form factor which is great to see as high RPMs tend to be less noticeable due to lower frequencies. The fan would remain very quiet at just 24.7 dB(A) against a silent background of 23.2 dB(A) even after running the first benchmark scene of 3DMark 06.
Note that fan noise when running Cyberpunk 2077 on High graphics settings is very low since the CPU is being bottlenecked by the slow iGPU. When the CPU becomes stressed, fan noise would reach just over 42 dB(A).

Temperature
Surface temperatures are never uncomfortably warm with hot spots near the rear reaching almost 40 C when running demanding loads. This is similar to what we recorded on the older Dragonfly G4 but still much cooler than on the MSI Summit E13. The AC adapter would similarly remain very cool.
(+) The maximum temperature on the upper side is 35.8 °C / 96 F, compared to the average of 35.9 °C / 97 F, ranging from 21.4 to 59 °C for the class Subnotebook.
(+) The bottom heats up to a maximum of 37.6 °C / 100 F, compared to the average of 39.3 °C / 103 F
(+) In idle usage, the average temperature for the upper side is 22.2 °C / 72 F, compared to the device average of 30.8 °C / 87 F.
(+) The palmrests and touchpad are cooler than skin temperature with a maximum of 24.2 °C / 75.6 F and are therefore cool to the touch.
(+) The average temperature of the palmrest area of similar devices was 28.2 °C / 82.8 F (+4 °C / 7.2 F).

Energy Management
Power Consumption
Overall consumption comes close to the Core Ultra H-powered MSI Summit E13 AI Evo while still offering faster processor performance and similar graphics performance. Note that consumption would steadily drop from 48 W to 35 W when idling on Cyberpunk 2077 to suggest slowing performance over time which complements our slowing frame rates recorded in the GPU Performance section above.
We're able to record a maximum temporary draw of 60 W from the small (~8.8 x 4.9 x 2.8 cm) 65 W USB-C AC adapter when the CPU is fully stressed.

Battery Life
Battery capacity is small even for a 13-inch form factor at just 43 Wh. The MSI Summit E13 and Asus ZenBook S13, for example, have larger 70 Wh and 63 Wh battery packs, respectively. The smaller capacity for the OmniBook Aero is clearly for weight mitigation purposes.
WLAN runtime is nonetheless quite long all things considered at almost 10.5 hours of real-world browsing. This is due to several factors including the use of a basic 60 Hz IPS panel instead of OLED and a relatively low-power AMD Zen 5 CPU.

The selection of devices to be reviewed is made by our editorial team. The test sample was provided to the author as a loan by the manufacturer or retailer for the purpose of this review. The lender had no influence on this review, nor did the manufacturer receive a copy of this review before publication. There was no obligation to publish this review. As an independent media company, Notebookcheck is not subjected to the authority of manufacturers, retailers or publishers.
This is how Notebookcheck is testing
Every year, Notebookcheck independently reviews hundreds of laptops and smartphones using standardized procedures to ensure that all results are comparable. We have continuously developed our test methods for around 20 years and set industry standards in the process. In our test labs, high-quality measuring equipment is utilized by experienced technicians and editors. These tests involve a multi-stage validation process. Our complex rating system is based on hundreds of well-founded measurements and benchmarks, which maintains objectivity. Further information on our test methods can be found here.
