Reviews for the HP Victus 16-s1000
Source: Laptop Mag
The HP Victus 16 balances an affordable entry-level price with great overall gaming performance, making it a good deal as long as you're willing to sacrifice display quality. The display on the Victus 16 is disappointing enough to be a major drawback to an otherwise solid gaming laptop. The Victus 16 is a good pick for gamers looking to get one of the best gaming laptops under $1,500. Above-average battery life, a minimalist design, a full-size keyboard, and a surprisingly good webcam are added bonuses that help balance out the disappointing display. However, if display quality is a top priority for you, the similarly-priced Dell G16 (7630) would be a better fit. Not sure if either one is the right fit?

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

80%: This rating is not earth-shattering. This rating must actually be seen as average, since there are about as many devices with worse ratings as better ones. A purchase recommendation can only be seen with a lot of goodwill, unless it is about websites that generally rate strictly.
