HP Omen 14 (2025) Review - They Fixed the Biggest Problem!

Deskripsi:

HP Omen 14 (2025) Review – The latest Omen Transcend 14 addresses the major issues from last year, offering a refined design, improved build quality, and a slimmer, lighter chassis. Inside, the laptop features a robust set of ports, a high‑refresh OLED display with excellent color accuracy, and a well‑balanced thermal system that keeps the keyboard and chassis comfortable during extended gaming sessions. Performance is strong across all modes, with the integrated GPU and CPU delivering solid frame rates in titles like Cyberpunk 2077, Alan Wake 2, and Black Myth: Wukong, while the 8 GB of VRAM is adequate for most modern games. Battery life is respectable, especially with the new power‑saving features, though the device still drains noticeably during sleep. The review also covers fan noise, speaker quality, and Linux support, concluding that the Omen 14 is a solid choice for 14‑inch gaming laptops, though it may not be the best option for those prioritizing maximum performance or battery endurance.
