HP showed the flagship gaming laptop Omen Max 16 at CES 2025. The novelty was equipped with high-performance Intel and AMD processors, complemented by NVIDIA gas pedals, a large amount of memory and a screen with top features. The 16-inch laptop display has a resolution of 2560x1600 pixels, and in case of Intel-based versions we are talking about an OLED  OLED technology was invented by Eastman Kodak in the early 1980s. OLED panels are made from organic (carbon based) materials that emit light when electricity is applied through them. Since OLEDs do not require a backlight and filters (unlike LCD displays), they are more efficient, simpler to make, and much thinner. OLEDs have a great picture quality - brilliant colors, fast response rate and a wide viewing angle. OLEDs can also be used to make OLED lighting - thin, efficient and without any bad metals.panel with a refresh rate of 48-240 Hz, peak brightness of 400 nits (500 nits in HDRHDR stands for High Dynamic Range imaging, and it is an old photography practice recently introduced to cameraphones like the iPhone and some Android devices (or with the use of special apps). mode), response time of 0.2 ms and coverage of 100% of the DCI-P3 color gamut. Models based on other CPUs received an IPSIn Plane Switching (IPS) panels are an expensive option but they have excellent colour accuracy and far greater viewing angles then TN and VA panels (Not that we condone slouching while gaming). They are great for graphics design and photo editing. However, the only downside to IPS panels if that they can sometimes have a slower response time than TN panels. This is the only real problem if you’re a very competitive gamer or want to game in 3D. As of late “IPS” has become a big marketing word. Step into an Apple store and you would be hard pressed talking to someone that didn’t mention Apple’s “brand new IPS Displays!” In fact, Apple is probably one of the biggest marketers of this “new-found” technology. As a business person myself, this is when you have to tip your hat to Apple’s awesome marketing machine. Why? Well, because IPS is actually nothing new. In fact, this technology was originally invented in 1996 by Hitachi..screen with 60-240 Hz, 500 nits brightness, 3 ms response time and 100% sRGB coverage. Both feature Low Blue Light technology to reduce eye strain.Speaking of performance, users can choose the Omen Max 16 running AMD chips up to Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 (5.1 GHz) or Intel's Core Ultra 9 275HX (5.4 GHz) processors in the maximum configuration. CPUs work in conjunction with NVIDIA graphics gas pedals up to GeForce RTX 5080, up to 32GB of RAM Random Access Memory (RAM) is the place in a computer where the operating system, application programs, and data in current use are kept so that they can be quickly reached by the computers processor. (DDR5) or up to 64GB for Intel versions, and up to 1TB of SSD (PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 or Performance M.2).To improve performance, the company has equipped its new products with an efficient cooling system using a special material Omen Cryo Compound for heat dissipation, as well as a set of heat pipes and evaporation chambers. In addition, HP has introduced Fan Cleaner technology, created in collaboration with Intel: every four hours the fan changes the direction of rotation to get rid of accumulated dust. There was no shortage of AI technologies aimed at improving gameplay.These include Omen AI with Unleash Mode to fine-tune the laptop's performance through the Omen Gaming Hub. Powder AI will be useful for streamers to create quality content, while AI-Powered Acceleration combines NPU and GPU GPU-accelerated computing is the use of a graphics processing unit (GPU) together with a CPU to accelerate deep learning, analytics, and engineering applications. capabilities to accelerate demanding AI tasks.There are also three gamer modes: Eco, Balanced, Performance.Finally, the Omen Max 16 boasts a wide array of ports: two Thunderbolt 4, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 ports, two USB Type-A, a 3.5mm audio jack, and an RJ-45 jack. The HP Omen Max 16 will go on sale soon with prices starting at $1700. |
