HP has finally started selling one of its latest 14-inch laptops globally. Despite weighing just 1.3 kg, the OmniBook X 14 contains up to a 70 Wh battery, PCIe Gen 5 storage, a 120 Hz VRR OLED display and Arc B390 graphics thanks to a Core Ultra X9 388H processor.

The latest 14-inch OmniBook X has now gone on sale globally. Presented in January, the OmniBook X 14 was one of five OmniBook X-branded laptops that graced CES 2026 in Las Vegas. For reference, the OmniBook X Flip 14 and OmniBook X Flip 16 are now available to purchase as well.

Initially, HP claimed that it had created Snapdragon X2 and Intel Panther Lake-powered versions of the OmniBook X. However, only the latter is available in a choice of Core Ultra 5 325, Core Ultra 7 356H, Core Ultra 9 386H and Core Ultra X9 388H processors. At the time of writing, HP has not confirmed when the OmniBook X 14 with Snapdragon X2 processors will be available.

In the meantime, the OmniBook X 14 can be purchased for £1,249 with a Core Ultra 7 356H processor, 24 GB of RAM, a 1 TB SSD and a 1200p OLED display that peaks at 60 Hz and 300 nits. Incidentally, a comparable SKU sells for $1,677 on Amazon US but $1,959 on HP's website. With that being said, the OmniBook X 14 starts at $1,399 in the US and CAD 1,799 in Canada, featuring the Core Ultra 5 325, 16 GB of RAM and a 1200p IPS display.

It is worth noting that the Core Ultra 5 325 can only be configured with a 1200p IPS display and a 59 Wh battery. By contrast, more powerful processors must be optioned with a 1800p OLED display in the US, which outputs at 500 nits in SDR mode, 1,100 nits in HDR mode and offers a 120 Hz variable refresh rate. Selecting an OLED display adds a 70 Wh battery, too.

Currently, the OmniBook X 14 can be configured with up to 32 GB of RAM, a 2 TB PCIe Gen 5 SSD, a 1800p OLED display and a Core Ultra X9 388H processor containing Arc B390 graphics. Nonetheless, the 14-inch laptop weighs about 70 g more than a MacBook Air 13 at 1.3 kg. Unfortunately, HP's top SKU costs $2,699 in the US. Meanwhile, HP Canada tops out at a Core Ultra 7 356H, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD and the same 1800p display for CAD 2,899. Please see the company's website for more details.
