The PC arrived with a minor screen issue, a small peeling spot that's visible but doesn't currently affect functionality. However, I'm unsure if it might worsen over time, so I decided to let it go for now. Later, I noticed a speaker issue. I suspected it might be driver-related, so I reinstalled the audio drivers, but the problem persisted. The glitch is brief, like a millisecond hiccup, similar to the sound of an old record skipping. I've tried multiple troubleshooting steps, but nothing has resolved it. If the issue continues or worsens, I plan to use the warranty.
So happy with my new HP. This is replacing my old 15.6 pavilion laptop which I had for 6 years. This laptop is lighter, runs quiet, has the backlight keyboard and touch screen...what more could you want. Perfect for working from home.
A nice easy to use laptop for home general use. Comes with camera, speakers, microphone, and other useful features including AI. Only short coming is not being able to connect to many devices at same time at home such as disc drive, flash drive. internet via cable, external mouse all at once due to not enough open ports. This is common with laptops because of size, but is easy to overcome with certain extra easily found cables.
Problems going from one HP computer to another HP computer

Verified Purchase:Yes
Having a serious problem trying to add my printer. Been trying for quite some time and not adding that device. Discovered the printer was purchasing sometime in 2018 - but nothing wrong with it and working great (it is the HP ENVY 6200 photo series). I am very satisfied with this printer so would you please tell me a way to add the printer to this new HP computer that I now own. Have never had a problem before with what I needed as far as going to one HP computer to another as I have had this time. Would you help out so this can be resolved?
I’m absolutely loving my new HP Omnibook 5. It’s sleek, fast, and incredibly intuitive—but what really blows me away is the built-in AI assistant. It’s like having a smart, responsive companion right inside my laptop.
Whether I’m organizing my day, getting help with creative projects, or just exploring ideas, the AI is always ready with thoughtful, helpful responses. It’s made everything from productivity to play feel smoother and more personalized.
The Omnibook 5 isn’t just a laptop—it’s a whole experience. If you’re looking for a device that blends power, style, and intelligence, this one’s a winner.
This is a nice laptop for every day email, web surfing, social media, etc. It is light weight, was very easy to set up, and I especially like the backlit keyboard.
This next part is more of a food for thought thing, than a criticism of the laptop, as I really do like the laptop alot. We lefties have learned to adapt over the years, but if you want true feedback on things...here is a sticking point for me.
This is the second HP laptop I have purchased in the last couple of years and the only thing I really miss is the CTRL key on the right side of the keyboard, as I am left handed and it makes it awkward to use the CTRL key with my right hand while selecting (mousing) with my left hand. It appears that the key was replaced with the AI key....not sure if this is an HP thing but would love to see the second CTRL key return to the right side of the keyboard.
