HP is refreshing a popular budget laptop lineup, leveraging Qualcomm’s PC chipsets for a performance and battery upgrade. The OmniBook 5 series is now arriving in two sizes and two Snapdragon X series processors, so here’s everything you need to know.
HP OmniBook 5 Series Refreshed with Snapdragon X
The known PC maker has just announced the OmniBook 5 14 and OmniBook 5 16 with the Snapdragon X and Snapdragon X Plus. As the name suggests, one variant has a more compact 14-inch display, while the other is a larger 16-inch model. The Snapdragon X series of processors offers performance upgrades over their predecessors, but the biggest highlight is the top tier energy efficiency, allowing for long battery life.
HP claims an impressive battery life of up to 34 hours, with fast charging powering the laptop up to 50 percent in just 30 minutes. The new OmniBook 5 series falls directly below the OmniBook X, so it isn’t as powerful as the higher end model. Although, you do get access to Copilot+’s AI features like Recall, Click-to-Do and much more. On the front, the screens are 2K OLED panels, and there is even support for up to a single external 5K monitor or two 4K monitors.
Furthermore, the new HP OmniBook 5 series packs an FHD IR webcam on the front and supports Audio Boost 2.0 that is powered by AI noise removal. The new 14-inch model will go on sale in June, while the 16-inch variants will debut in July. HP’s OmniBook 5 14 starts from 799 US Dollars, while the OmniBook 5 16 costs 849 US Dollars. This launch also arrives after the HP OmniBook 5 laptop in India with AMD Ryzen AI 300 series processors.
