Deal | This HP Omen 16 gaming laptop deal with RTX 5070 provides max value at a $910 discount

The HP Omen 16 is an affordable alternative to the high-powered Omen Max, reviewed by Notebookcheck. Yet, shoppers on a budget should find that the newly discounted model provides strong mid-range performance. This 16-inch gaming laptop ships with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 processor and Nvidia RTX 5070 GPU. The result is an appealing balance of efficiency, portability, and gaming prowess.

While the HP gaming laptop is listed at $1399.99, buyers can save an additional 15% with the coupon code POWERUP15. At the HP Store, the final price comes to $1190, which is a savings of $910.

Notebookcheck recently evaluated a 2025 HP Omen 16 and found it achieved surprisingly capable gaming performance. However, the notebook on sale boasts a beefier CPU/GPU combo and a higher resolution screen. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor excels in multi-threaded benchmarks, which makes it more than capable for productivity tasks.

The most critical component of any gaming laptop is the graphics card. What separates the HP Omen 16 from most budget models is its RTX 5070 GPU. This choice is ideal for the notebook’s 2560 x 1600 WQXGA display. Although the Blackwell card has some 4K capabilities, it supports high refresh rates at lower resolutions. Competitive gamers can expect up to 240Hz visuals for ultra-smooth camera movements.

Unfortunately, buyers won’t have the benefits of an OLED display with the Omen 16. On its 16-inch IPS screen, blacks may appear grayish, and response times aren’t as instant. Still, the HP gaming laptop gets plenty bright and produces sharp text without fringing.

HP Omen 16 design and connectivity

The laptop comes well stocked with 32 GB of DDR5-5600 memory, spread out over two sticks. For storage, the notebook relies on a 1 TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe, but two expansion slots are available. Connectivity is adequate, highlighted by a single USB Type-C port capable of power delivery.

HP doesn’t go overboard with gaming flair on the Omen 16, but it does possess a four-zone RGB keyboard. Compared to the Razer Blade 16 with a similar configuration, the 5.4 lb. Omen lacks the same premium-grade construction. Notebookcheck’s review also described how its exterior is prone to fingerprints.

Minor drawbacks aside, the current HP gaming laptop deal is a rare opportunity. At $1190 on the HP Store, buyers can upgrade from the budget tier without spending significantly more.
