HP Omen 15 2020 Review : The Workhorse 

Tyvm working on that now, just trying to learn and get good at making vids. :)

Tyvm! Doing a channel for 2021 redesign just wish I had more stuff to review lol

@@MkJrTech I completely understand, as you said in the video you gotta finance the tech yourself. Giving soild review like that will go a long way in making this a viable career.

Yeah I got a new mic for my most recent video and found some chill music, was stuck with my camera mic on this one lol

Sorry for late reply, brightness is 300nits and response time I couldn't find in spec sheet. Nor have the tool to measure. The bottom deck top and bottom is metal the top lid is metal and plastic all is painted all around. I'd recommend the Ryzen model for sure not too crazy of difference but I use ryzen on my tower and love what AMD has done. For the price blackfriday may have it down to around 1250 again and the $100 student discount at Bestbuy is awesome but besides Black Friday or after holiday season I don't think it's going to be on sale till summer when newer specs hit the shelfs for laptops.

Good question and glad you like the videos first off. When it comes to things I review I bought all but the xiaomi (borrowed from girlfriend). I do sell some of the stuff I just don't like on ebay or Facebook but thats only been earbuds and a tablet so far. So everything you see is bought from me and I won't ever get something free to review unless I'm way bigger. (So never or maybe 2 years from now. If/when that does happen I will mention it)

No problem glad this helped! 😄

I bought the 4k version(ek0023dx) with 16gb of ram, 1tb of SSD, RTX 2070 MAX Q. This laptop is very powerful, the screen is very bright with good color accuracy. I bought it for Photography and videography. Hp did a good job. I will recommend this laptop anytime 🙋

Add legion 5 to your list

@@user-fi3cd3ig6l I was about to get an OMEN 15 with better specs but I ended up choosing Legion 5 just because I'm getting a PS5 as soon as they come out lol. PD: Lenovo has great deals right now.

@@xlegolas20x yo am about to get the ps5 too and got the Legion 5 as well! Cheers!

So for screen flex, pushing on end one way and the other the opposite im getting less than a centimeter of flex. For wobble when I first open it it wobbles just a second then it locks in place. The wobble is mainly from the strong hing and it doesn't wobble if you move it if its weighted down on a flat surface. So it has some because metal was used sparingly but it isn't particularly weak compared to its closest competitors or any non thin and light laptop you can play with at a best buy. 😄

Thanks for the reply bro! Gonna buy it.

I was wondering about that too...

So I've been avoiding too much after effects because of, well, video reasons and time. But when I've messed with it its been great, mainly because of the beefy specs. With 4k files and pre-composed sections (using old logo of mine that was over the top for this) its very smooth u til about like 12 precompiled things in. Then playback isn't real time, now thats not any of the computers build quality issue other than ram. For Adobe after effects and premiere pro GPU and processor are important, sure. But its the ssd and the ram that really effect playback and the responsiveness of adobe stuff. So the omen comes with a m.2 ssd (perfect for adobe due to speed) and 16gb of ram, which is really darn good. But if your looking at A teir after effects projects I'd upgrade to 32gb of ram. You can upgrade from omen itself OR upgrade itself later. But that'll be your only bottle neck really, rendering and stuff like that is just as good as my desktop. (My desktop is a gtx1660 though) which for a laptop is good for its thermal envelope. Hope that helps 😃

@@MkJrTech Ty kind sir, subbed

So for fan noise for normal use is fairly identical to non-gaming laptops, the pitch is a little lower than the asus zenbook (2018) from my experiance. But it is there, other gaming laptops like an ROG zephrus I used to have was a wind turbine. I would say fan noise is normal and a little bit of a lower hum because of the bigger fans versus a normal non-gaming laptop. There are fan-less offerings from apple and Microsoft that may fit your needs, specifically surface line but idk if tdp for the chip is enough for what you need.

What performance mode do you put yours on?

Comfort, Default or Peformance?

How is your laptop doing after 3 month's?Im a 3d designer and planning to buy the same lap?would u recommend

@@rrch2951 So sorry late reply.......My laptop works very well until now......there is no issue.....my daily use : I use Sketchup for 3D design with Enscape for the Real time render.....when just for 3D modelling i set the performance to default with normal fan (auto) in Omen hub and i use cooling pad with fan,..when works with 3D modelling + Enscape...i set the performance sometimes default or high but keep set the fan to max also use cooling pad fan and it will reduce the heat. Based on my experience, this laptop very worth to buy....but dont forget to turn off your laptop and make it idle every 4-5hours...it to eliminate or reduce the risk.

@@franciskopolii9678 thanks for the reply,but I changed my mind and got rog strix g17 with ryzen 9 and rtx 3060
