Just got mine yesterday after seeing the thermal performance in this video. Loving it so far. Only thing I don't like is the "sharp" front bevel, but I'm quickly getting used to it. Mine has a tiny amount of backlight bleed. Thermals are beautiful. Got it on sale well within my budget. I bought the 8 GB RAM model and I'm quickly ripping that out to go with 32 GB instead to make it into an affordable workstation. This is my first laptop since 2012 and it's a massive upgrade. Thanks for the review!

[@TwoTonTaft]

I had to take a file to the very corner bits to smooth them out a little, but that edge doesn't really bother me much either. I got mine for under $1000 and I think its a tremendous deal. (and yeah, 32 gb of ram isn't too expensive, especially if the omen was on sale, so getting some REALLY fast ram is a solid idea)

First they say the Tuf A15 was the best, then Dell G5 SE, then it was the RP-15, then the Legion 5, now the HP Omen lol I've owned the Tuf A15 and now the HP Omen 15. Omen 15 is def the better of the 2, cooler thermals. No particular order: 1) Tuf A15: Good hardware for price. External temps are great. Internals are warmer than competition, screen is meh. Everyone laughs at Asus' airflow design, but hey I mean it sorta works, they keep temps relatively in check, right? with repaste the A15 I had (1660ti) avg 75deg GPU and 80 CPU in gaming. 2) Omen 15: a little bit pricier. Thermals are excellent inside and out (KB cool, GPU 68-72, CPU 77-80 gaming w/repaste). Screen is amazing. Audio is great and fans aren't loud. Only missing is numpad and strangely the 2nd m.2 slot is very picky (will not boot up with some nvmes, will with others) 3) RP-15 I hear is great as well but the KB thermals are not so cool (as referenced in your review). I don't like WASDs that are warm, bad experience with MSI having to wipe my hands every 15mins from sweat. 4) Legion 5 isn't available in store locally. I'll take your word it's a top contender. Dell is just trash IMHO. Ugly chassis, HOT KB and HOT thermals. Dell seems to always have crap thermals in their lineups. Thanks for your review Jarrod as always. I think the HP Omen is a winner!

[@ericojunior1006]

Just got this laptop and kinda new to the PC gaming scene. Still learning terminology (eg. Display port, thunderbolt 3, etc) so kinda need a little help. From the information (possible misinformation or I didn't understand it properly) having a computer with G-Sync or Free-Sync capability and connecting to same compatible external monitor helps with refresh rate. Since you said this doesn't have an output on either, what kind of external monitor should I be looking for?

Thank you great review!

[@user-xc9do2ly1y]

I going to buy this laptop next week Im excited!

[@JarrodsTech]

Let us know how it goes!

i am from Germany it has rtx 2060 version with 4800h with 512 gb pcie ssd and 16gb ram for 1200 euros. which is a very good price for Germany. I would like to know is it the rtx refreshed 2060 115w or the old one? how much performance differences are between the two in percentages in games?

[@superstachebro7400]

Thank you for the review! I decided to pull the trigger on one of these! Hopefully next year we will see some more powerful GPUs in these!

[@carlpiezas1123]

Hey jarrod! is this laptop good for engineering softwares? Nice content! waiting for the comparison of this and the legion 5.

[@KZgun4hire]

I don't know Jarrod. The Lenovo is au $800 more expensive than the eluktronics for the same spev. The lenovo is au $2699 and the eluk is $1899 and there is the option to take another $100 off by removing the windows licence. That's a pretty hard comparison.

Would be nice if u also tried to undervolt both CPU and GPU and show us if there's any difference in time from full battery charge

Excelent review as always! Can't believe this laptop runs as cool as a freezer while running those games at good framerates. I hope we see more and more machines adopt Ryzen, as the lower prices and temps fit right with a laptop case use. Greetings Jarod and thank you for this review!

Woo this is a super informational video! Your attention to detail to awesome, keep it up! 👏🏾

[@YeetDaBabies]

What about the Asus Rog G15 with the 240Hz panel? It seems to have good response time and color accuracy, and at 1400$ for a 4800h and a 2060 its not exactly the cheapest, but it is more premium and could restore Rog's reputation.

love your vids, keep up the hard work brother!

[@JarrodsTech]

Will do!

[@princejoshualugtu761]

Thank you for the review! I will recommend this video to my friends! Good review.

[@F1sherman]

Hey Jarrod! It says on the website that the RTX 2070 super max-q variant is 'shadow black aluminium'. Does this mean it has an all metal build? Could you let us know if the build quality is better on this one?!

[@ibeshshrestha486]

Origin has their EON 15-X with AMD Ryzen 9. Hope to see you reviewing that big boy as well with their flagship 17inch intel based EON 17-X

[@thevibe4316]

I got the Asus Zephyrus g14 because of how good it is and due to reviews, I watched from Jarrod and more KZbinrs.

[@cutmangolf3667]

Have tried editing videos with it??

[@thevibe4316]

@@cutmangolf3667 I haven’t tried but you definitely can

[@RusBuffet]

Thanks. Seems like finally we'll have to choose only between HP Omen 15 and Lenovo Legion 5, for their temperatures in 4800H+1660Ti. I'm looking forward to Legion because it has 17 inch solution, numpads in both 15/17 inch versions and RTX 2060 will be available too. Still don't have them in stocks here in Russia though.

[@gunawanlim3079]

I got one with GTX 1650TI, 60Hz screen, 150W charging brick, 4 zone RGB keyboard, 16GB RAM dual channel. Little bit dissappoint I dont get the 144Hz screen.

[@dazzle187]

Australian price is $2699 for the 1660ti 4800h model and out of stock. $2999 for the 2060.
