The Victus cost just $800, or less when on sale, and was a good entry point to decent laptop gaming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The Omen 15 has nice little upgrades over the Victus. Its RTX 5050 Laptop GPU can play 2026\u2019s latest games, albeit on low-ish settings. But it\u2019s also got a brighter 16:10 aspect ratio display with higher refresh rate, and a 1080p webcam to make it a little better for non-gaming stuff.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">I\u2019d call it a working-class gaming laptop, but thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/839353\/pc-ram-shortage-pricing-spike-news\">RAMageddon<\/a>, the Omen 15 starts at $1,200 \u2014 a far cry from the $800 that made its predecessor so appealing. But laptop prices are way up across the board, and if you want current-gen gaming hardware, this is about as cheap as you\u2019re going to find it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div

Last-gen games like <em>Control<\/em> can get a smooth 70 to 80fps on High preset while using DLSS. <em>Cyberpunk 2077<\/em> can run on the Ultra preset (no ray tracing) with DLSS set to Quality and get 60 to 70fps\u2014 sometimes dipping down to 40 while driving with lots of stuff onscreen. Standard frame generation boosts it to 95 to 105fps, and 70s to low 80s in a car. Multi Frame Gen, which you don\u2019t get on last-gen GPUs, can push that ever further if you don\u2019t mind more \u201cfake frames.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Newer games are a more Medium to Low affair. For example, <em>Helldivers 2<\/em> runs comfortably at just above 60fps on its Medium preset with DLSS set to Quality \u2014 though it dips into the 40s when the bug guts hit the fan. But <em>Battlefield 6<\/em> was lower, down in the 50fps range while running Medium preset with DLSS cranked to Performance. I also tested <em>Halo: Campaign Evolved<\/em>, which defaulted to its Very Low preset, where it looked like a potato. On Low settings, with DLSS set to Medium, it mustered between 50 to 60fps, but with frequent drops into the 40s with lots of enemies onscreen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div

The hottest point, a small spot under the chassis, rose to 113 degrees Fahrenheit \/ 45 Celsius. But the main areas that normally make contact with your hands or lap didn\u2019t get too warm \u2014 pretty good thermals for a somewhat compact gaming laptop.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">So the RTX 5050 GPU and its 8GB of VRAM can get by with the latest graphically intense games, so long as you\u2019re not expecting a visual powerhouse. But what about living with the rest of the laptop?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Much of the Omen 15\u2019s price has gone to its specs. That means there are some rough edges showing in the usual areas. The trackpad has a responsive mechanical click, but if you pick up the laptop by either of its front corners the chassis flexes and causes an accidental click. This is common in mostly plastic laptops, but still annoying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The keyboard has decent enough tactility when typing. But even though I know gamers love a number pad, it makes this 15-inch laptop feel cramped. I don\u2019t enjoy typing on it like I have other HP laptops. The speakers? A little muddy-sounding \u2014 especially for music. And the ports? It has HDMI 2.1 and gigabit ethernet, which is great, but only one USB-C to go with its two USB-A ports. And all of them are a modest 10Gbps \u2014 not particularly speedy compared to USB4 or Thunderbolt 4. Gaming laptops are supposed to have ports aplenty, but this is just ports apassable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0 duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<div style=\"position:relative\">\n<div>\n<section tabindex=\"-1\" aria-label=\"carousel\" class=\"duet--article--gallery _1044qizj xnv72h0\">\n<p><strong class=\"xnv72he\">1<!-- -->\/<!-- -->7<\/strong><span class=\"duet--media--caption inline xnv72hk _77sxmb0\"><figcaption class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _19wv7tc2 _77sxmba\"><em>The screen does a decent job controlling glare.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">Aside from its gaming performance, the Omen 15\u2019s other strength is its screen. The 1920 x 1200 IPS panel isn\u2019t particularly special, but at 400 nits it\u2019s decently bright and it has nice contrast and colors. It\u2019s good for games, and fine for productivity work and light content creation. I did a bit of Lightroom Classic editing on the Omen 15, and my 50-megapixel RAW files were workable at a modest clip. (It helped that I was editing a batch of under 50 images, and not, like, 2,000.) The bigger problem with trying to do creative things was the Omen\u2019s paltry 512GB of storage. It fills up quickly when games like <em>Battlefield 6<\/em> take up 142GB. There\u2019s a second M.2 slot for another drive, just as there\u2019s a second RAM slot, which is great for future upgrades \u2014 but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/tech\/908916\/ssd-storage-shortages-price-increases\">boy will that cost you right now<\/a>. You can hold out for RAM and SSD prices to come back down to Earth, but if that takes as long as it\u2019s expected to, the Omen 15 might feel pretty outdated by then.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1044qizi _18mzr4b1 _18mzr4b0 _19wv7tc1\">The Omen was also fine for my everyday work: Chrome tabs, four virtual desktops, Signal, Slack, music streaming, etc. While the 1080p webcam is a little grainy and slightly low in saturation, it looks fine on video calls. The main barrier to getting work done on the Omen 15 is that its battery never lasted me more than five and a half hours. That\u2019s far from the worst for gaming laptops, but keep that chunky power adapter with its barrel plug nearby.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--block-placement _1xorkac1 _1xorkac0
