HP will release its Omen MAX gaming laptop in China on March 31 at 9 PM. The device is priced at ¥18,999 ($2,618), with a discount bringing it down to ¥16,999 (~$2,350). Aimed at gamers and content creators, the laptop combines high-end components in a 16-inch form factor.
The Omen MAX features Intel’s 24-core Ultra 9-275HX processor and NVIDIA’s RTX 5080 GPU with a maximum power of 175W. It comes with 32GB of DDR5 RAM (5600MT/s) and a 1TB PCIe 5.0 SSD. HP claims a combined CPU and GPU power draw of over 250W (75W CPU + 175W GPU), supported by a dual-fan cooling system. The thermal setup includes heat pipes, a vapor chamber covering 61% of the motherboard, and a hybrid liquid metal compound, which improves heat transfer compared to traditional thermal paste.
The display is a 16-inch 2560×1600 IPS panel with a 240Hz refresh rate, 500 nits peak brightness, and full sRGB coverage. It also supports a variable refresh rate (VRR) to minimize screen tearing during gameplay.
Connectivity options include two Thunderbolt 4 ports (40Gbps, 100W PD), two USB-A 10Gbps ports, HDMI 2.1 (supporting up to 8K at 60Hz), a 2.5G Ethernet port, and support for Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4.
For security, the laptop has a Full HD IR camera for Windows Hello login, along with a physical privacy shutter. The design is minimal, finished in black, with an emphasis on performance rather than aesthetics. HP has not shared details on the laptop’s weight or thickness.
The laptop is also available to pre-order in markets outside of China, with prices starting from US$1,899.99.
