The Omen 16 is a refresh of HP's mainstream gaming line. It offers a wide range of processor choices, from the Ryzen 7 8745HX based on Zen 4 up to the top-end Ryzen 9 9955HX3D with Zen 5. On the GPU side, buyers can pick between the 5060 with 8 GB VRAM, an RTX 5070 with 8 GB, or an RTX 5070 with 12 GB.

Storage 512 GB, 1 TB, or 2 TB PCIe Gen 4
Display options 1200p/165 Hz IPS, 1600p/240 Hz IPS, 1600p/165 Hz OLED

Memory options include 16 GB, 24 GB, or 32 GB of DDR5-5200 RAM. Storage choices are 512 GB, 1 TB, or 2 TB PCIe Gen 4 SSDs. The laptop comes with either a 70 Wh or 84 Wh battery. Connectivity supports Wi-Fi 6 or Wi-Fi 7.

The display lineup covers three panels: a 1200p IPS at 165 Hz, a 1600p IPS at 240 Hz, and a 1600p OLED at 165 Hz. The OLED option reaches 1100 nits peak brightness in HDR and covers 100% of the DCI-P3 color space. That makes it suitable for both gaming and content consumption.

Pricing starts at $1,999 USD. HP began selling the Omen 16 on July 17, 2025. The configurable nature means the final price can go higher depending on the chosen CPU, GPU, memory, storage, and display.

The new Omen 16 sits alongside HP's existing gaming lineup, offering a more affordable entry point compared to premium models. With the combination of AMD's latest Ryzen processors and Nvidia's RTX 50-series GPUs, the laptop aims to deliver strong performance for modern games at 1440p and beyond.
