This is a fast laptop. It was easy to setup and get it going. I primarily use this to do 2D and 3D CAD drawings. It is also very light weight compared to other 16” laptops. The only thing I wish this had was the number keys on the keyboard. But overall, I can’t complain about anything!
So far I am really enjoying my new laptop. It was an easy transition though I did not do it myself. All of my old files and pictures transferred without a problem.
The overall PC was amazing, but the touchscreen stopped working after not even 30 days. Everything you could possibly try did not work. Now, im waiting on a new one in exchange. Im a bit dissapointed becuase this PC is in backorder, so i had to get a different one. Overall, this computer was amazing when it was working, but my experience was very dissapointing.
After moving from an HP Spectre to the HP OmniBook, I’ve realized how much the keyboard affects the overall experience. The Spectre’s keyboard had raised keys and comfortable spacing, making typing effortless. The OmniBook’s keyboard is almost completely flat with very tight spacing, and it lacks the tactile feedback needed for accurate typing. This has led to frequent errors, not because my typing skills have changed, but because the keyboard design simply isn’t as functional.
The camera slider is another issue. It occasionally interferes with Windows Hello Face, causing the laptop to fail to recognize me until I adjust it.
The OmniBook has many strengths, but these two design decisions make daily use more difficult than it should be.
