Pros
Cons
The HP OmniBook 5 14 is a 14-inch Windows 11 Pro ultraportable built on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X Plus (Oryon) platform with integrated Adreno graphics and an onboard NPU. Its 1920x1200 OLED panel is a key selling point, offering punchy visuals that reviewers frequently praise for color and overall quality. Multiple outlets emphasize exceptional battery endurance, often described as all-day or even multi-day in light use, making it attractive for students and remote work. Performance is generally positioned as strong for everyday productivity, browsing, and office workloads, with Windows-on-ARM limitations remaining a consideration for certain apps and workflows. Graphics capability is described as modest, suitable mainly for casual or older games at low settings rather than modern AAA gaming. Overall sentiment lands in the “good to very good” range, with the laptop standing out primarily for battery life, display quality, low weight, and aggressive pricing.

HP’s OmniBook 5 14 is a more affordable Copilot/AI PC than most, given its thinness, light weight, and well-built design. Then Snapdragon X Plus delivers effective, reliable performance for general use, paired with the best power efficiency of any conventional laptop we’ve tested in years. (And it does all that with a bright, vivid OLED display.) That's a lot of goodwill there. While this OmniBook isn't quite as well-built as a similarly priced MacBook Air, and its graphics silicon won't get you through much more than casual photo edits, it's an impressive mainstream laptop with lots of premium flair for home users and students. That, plus best-in-class battery life, earns the HP OmniBook 5 14 our Editors' Choice award for midrange ultraportables.

Even if you remove the incredible battery life from the equation, the OmniBook 5 14 is a fantastic laptop at a great price. You don't usually find an OLED display, 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD in a laptop that costs less than $1,000. And it comes wrapped in a nice-looking, mostly metal design with a sub-3-pound weight.

If you're looking for a laptop with a large screen, good power and excellent battery life, the OmniBook 5 is going to be for you. It's great at its original price of $799, but it's even better now that it's seeing a steep discount that knocks it down to $600. Grab it from Walmart while you can.

I had high hopes for the HP OmniBook 5 14 (G1q) when I first used it, and it's awesome to see those hopes met and then some. It's often difficult to get excited about value-driven hardware, but HP did such a fantastic job with balancing this laptop's features, performance, and price. I still like the ASUS Zenbook A14 (2025) I reviewed a little more and consider that the better laptop, but it also costs up to $300 more for similar specs. For just $699.99 at BestBuy.com (easily the best deal), there's really no other laptop that's beating the OmniBook 5 14 (G1q) for sheer value right now. HP delivered the complete package with this machine, with multi-day battery life to boot. It's an excellent companion for casual computing and is guaranteed to enjoy years of new features through Windows updates. I only wish the port selection was better.

The HP Omnibook 5 14 Inch Laptop Next Gen AI PC (yes, that is its full name) has its flaws, but its strengths make those drawbacks easy to overlook. With over 16 hours of battery life, a stunning OLED display, an ultra-portable design, and an affordable starting price, it's hard not to recommend the OmniBook 5 14-inch, depending on what you're looking for in a laptop. It starts at just $679 / £850 / AU$1,599 for a base configuration with a Snapdragon X X1-26-100 processor, Qualcomm Adreno integrated graphics, 16GB of RAM, and a 14-inch (1920x1200) OLED display. Aside from a bit of pricing confusion, this OmniBook is a great pick for basic work and school-related tasks, especially if you want a laptop that's going to easily last all day, making it one of the best laptops for students and remote workers out there.

The OmniBook 5 14in finds itself flanked by a queue of capable challengers. If, for instance, you spend all your time working in a browser, then you could get a similarly refined experience from the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14 (Gen 10) – and that's just £549. And if you don't mind shifting to macOS, there's the £849 MacBook Air to catch your eye. Distractions aside, the OmniBook 5 is a good all-around laptop. If you're looking for a good sub-£1,000 ultraportable, and the software you use runs happily on Windows on ARM systems, then the OmniBook 5's nice OLED display, good ergonomics, and huge battery life may be everything you want. And if, like us, you're easily distracted, the poor GPU performance may actually be something of a productivity boost.

Qualcomm Adreno X1-45 1.7 TFLOPS: An integrated graphics adapter that the Snapdragon X Plus 8-core X1P-42-100 SoC features. Compared to the faster 3.8 TFLOPS and 4.6 TFLOPS X1-85 iGPUs, this one does not just run at lower clock speeds but also has fewer unified shaders at its disposal, with 768 being the most likely number. The underlying architecture is reportedly not much different from what was used in the Adreno 730. As for its gaming performance, it's only just sufficient for pre-2020 games at resolutions such as HD 720p on low graphics settings.
Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

SD X Plus X1P-42-100: A relatively affordable ARM architecture processor (SoC) for use in Windows laptops. The X Plus 8-core chip features 8 Oryon CPU cores running at up to 3.4 GHz, along with the 1.7 TFLOPS X1-45 Adreno iGPU and the 45 TOPS Hexagon NPU. The super-fast LPDDR5x-8448 memory controller known to us from other Snapdragon X chips, USB 4.0 support, TB 4 support and PCIe 4 support are all onboard as well.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.
