Great value for money and a work horse

Laptop is very fast and the best for multi tasking. I would say this laptop has the best battery power in the industry. After using all day using this for patient documentation, I had 72% left. I can literally go 2 days without charging. I wouldn't choose this for a slim laptop. GREAT BUY
I would recommend this to a friend!

Georgous OLED screen, good battery life, Snap Dragon handles multi-tasks well
on April 15, 2026
Posted by: ebk02
I have had good experiences with HP laptops - and this one is no exception. Keyboard has a good feel, and 2 level backlight. Touch pad is very spacious, and also is responsive. The screen is a brilliant OLED, so colors really pop - great for streaming. Don't let the 300 nits spec fool you - it is plenty bright for indoor use.
The Snap Dragon processor requires less power, so even though it is a 16 inch display, I expect to get 8 hours or more with just the usual internet, videos, etc. Of course, will depend on screen brightness, and processing demands. The processor handles multiple tasks well, and doesn't seem to slow down. I do recommend getting rid of all the extra "junk" that comes preinstalled.
This would definitely benefit from either a 1Tb SSD, or a micro SD slot for additional storage.

At full price it is a little pricey but still a good buy, and if you catch it on sale, it is a steal.....

Keyboard light does not illuminate the character on the key. I returned the laptop.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Otto, we’re sorry to hear the keyboard visibility led to a return, as the OmniBook 5 does include a backlit keyboard (typically activated via the F5 key) to help in low-light settings.
We understand how important clear key visibility is for your workflow and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future.

The laptop is well built. Performance is good. Screen is amazing. The only minor issue is it shows the battery as percentage and not in hours.

Hi Vakar, thank you for the 5-star review!
On the OmniBook 5, battery percentage is typically found on the Windows 11 taskbar, while estimated time remaining can be viewed under Settings > System > Power & battery. This display is managed by Windows rather than the hardware, but we appreciate your feedback on how you track your usage.

One of hard to find laptops without numeric keypad and 15"+ screen.
Superior screen quality and performance.
Very convenient keyboard.

This computer is great for speed and use. However, I made the mistake of not reading all the specifications carefully. I was disappointed by the keyboard not having a number pad and not having a back light.

Thank you for the 4-star review! We're thrilled you are loving the speed and performance of your OmniBook 5 16-inch.
We hear you on the keyboard layout. To keep the sleek, centered typing profile of this design, a numeric keypad isn't included. However, the keyboard does feature backlighting, which you can easily toggle on using the Fn + F5 keys to help in low-light settings. For data entry, pairing it with a wireless numeric keypad is a great way to add that desktop functionality. We appreciate your feedback here at HP.
