Love my new laptop. Especially the backlit keyboard. Needed a little support to get set up, but not that difficult
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this because it was a very good price for a system with 32GB and 1TB storage. It works well, and lets me develop a blog using ASP.NET. No problem running SQL server and other software needed for it.
As a thin laptop, I don't use it for games; it would probably overheat.
But it does what I need it to do well.

This is the fourt HP laptop and they have all been quite functional - primarily used for MS Office applications (sometimes multiple apps and multiple files at the same time - Excel, Word, Power Point & Outlook). Occasional simple games while waiting on the phone. One issue with this new OmniBook 5 - the 'Copilot' key position seems to have displaced the CNTRL key on the right and is positioned so that a 'miss' using the left arrow brings up Copilot - a pain.

I bought this during a great sale specifically for portable amatuer radio use. The software isn't demanding, but light weight, good WiFi, a clear and bright screen, a familiar keyboard layout and othr features that this laptop have were important.
I use 2 EliteDesk 800s in my home office and my main laptop is a 16" Envy with the i9 processor. Fro what I use it for, this seems just as fast. The screen is not a 4k, but the laptop weighs a lot less.
I think this is a great laptop for what most people would use one for. At 62% off the full retail price, this is almost a must-buy item. performance and features right in the middle and a price down at the bottom.
I have had nothing from HP computers for years, including an ultra lightweight but slower 16" with the N200 processor. There was nothing wrong with that laptop for indoor use, but the screen on the new OmniBook is soo much better in outdoor light (with shade) that I had to buy it!

So far, I am not loving this computer. It randomly freezes regularly and has to be turned off. The laptop also restarts randomly. I have adjusted the settings, and nothing seems to help.
