HP Victus 15 (2023) Review: Breaking The Price To Performance Barrier! 

What do you mean by this comment. I'm meaning to buy it tmrw should I not buy it?

​@@DrWooper if it suits your needs then buy it all laptops have some kind of flaws but for the price that the victus goes for, it's a bargain

@@enegizedadam OK can I ask you one more question? Do you think the victus is suitable for light-medium gaming and for studying stuff for like the 10th grade or 11th grade

​@@DrWooperyes, it can more than do that

@@noelsirrom thank you man, I've already bought and I'm pleasantly surprised with the performance so far ☺️

That’s very kind of you to say, as long as there are people like yourself who watch these videos it would be my honour to make more 😁

@@SoulOfTech Keep doing what you're doing, Sir. It's making a positive impact!

i’ve heard the hinges will break after a little while. can you tell me any other things that seem “bad” about this laptop? thanks

Do you use c++ for ue5 or do you have a plug-in for python

SAME BRUHH 😂😂😂 I BOUGHT THIS A YEAR AGO AND STILL LOVING IT 😂😂😂

Glad you like them!

Cool choice for sure!

Glad I could help!

Can we add another SDD or need to replace

@@bobbysithi Only one slot

I was looking for this type of comment, glad it works well programming. Buying first thing in the morning. They have it on sale

Hey i just ordered the device but i got a question does the laptop have heating problems?

?

Sorry :(

Yes, a review is slated for end of August, stay tuned!

Always plugged in

Awesome to hear, its my pleasure :)

Thank you 😊

how is the build quality?

@@foggy8055 feels good and high quality

Its plastic but doesnt feel cheap..overall feels solid although the wobbly screen is still a thing(it dont matter much imo)​@@foggy8055

Thank you!

no it's because the shell is a generic design with no specific configuration in mind. it's this big to accommodate a very large range of specs.

The body is from a generic case designer , a company which makes different prototypes for laptop designs and since there is no way of knowing exactly where the fan is going to be located the cut-outs are not made to exacting specifications like you would see in a more high-end laptop like spectre or legion pro

I don't mind it

​@KatieWiseberry That's what she said

You gez more performance

3050 5600h

Thanks for watching!

Is the screen size enough for emerging?

You can buy a usb port adapter I did the same

I got the same , whta is your experience with the battery?

i want a laptop for both gaming and school would it be a good pick?

@@shorts_daily3 100%

G15

if you want bad thermals go with dell

Would go for hp. Their cooling is top tier! Goodluck!

You need than a screen with 100% srgb colors so i recommend you legion 5 or the pro one it has better battery configuration than hp victus 15 ( i own it and its terrible) .

MacBook Pro

I'm also buying the same Victus as you so I looked for lots of information about it and luckily I ended up finding information about it, and the wattage The HP Victus 15 with Ritz 4060 is 75W but the 16 inch versions are 120W

@@edsonperengue1334hp victus 15 still a steal froom the price difference of victus 16 just for 10 fps boost

It's a 75 Watt configuration. It doesn't really matter IMHO, a 140 wattage 4060 would be giving hardly 10 extra fps and I'm being generous

Hey thanks for your viewership! I agree regarding the batter life.

How long does that normally last?

@@schrodingercattos Maybe 1hr max for gaming. You will need to plug it in otherwise.

most gaming laptop have great production for recording or mixing

Lmao, processors get better every year, corei5 13th gen is two times better than corei9 9th gen

generation matters

How slow are you?

@@johnalexwallwallwoah where did that come from 😭🙏

@@poopoopeepeeman8458 it came from my heart

Man im sold on this, would you recommend i buy this one (victus 15 fa1093dx) with the 13th gen i5 processor and rtx 3050 or wait for the next gen

@@TruthLoversKoSALAM-fg8dh mine is 12th gen i5 with rtx3050 and im loving it. 13th gen should be better and i can play games like ff7 remake and guardian of the galaxy with no problem

@@toparky2470 Hey thanks for the quick response, someone in the local marketplace is selling one for $650 I want to jump on this, i5-13420H 16/512 Rtx3050.. I also have a 8 year old hp spectre i could easily do away with it for another couple of years but even chrome is lagging now and win11 isn't upgradeable! Sorry for the long comments. Thanks again for your time.

It’s bad, some people can ignore it others retuned this machine for it

Details in the review.

Here you go :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FhTIhDQcVbU.html

did you figure it out yet

not yet I live in UAE and still trying to find the perfect laptop so somebody could help me please@@dio7792

I actually have this HP Victus. Just bought Ryzen 5 over Intel less than a week ago.. It actually gave better performance. not for the extreme gaming with high graphics but a casual gaming can.. also gave a better performance in terms of rendering.

is ryzen better than i5?

Its 120watt, for 40 series 50-70 gpu doesnt give u extra fps after 90-100watt

Yes it does. The Omen gaming hub program has the option of setting the fan speed from quiet to auto and to max, but setting it to max speed will make the laptop's fan really loud.

Details included in the review :)

That sucks, It only has 1 slot

And cheaper too

Yes

Details in the performance section :)

is the wobbly screen really noticeable? and how long does the battery last?

Since the laptop is 8GB by default, you can upgrade to 16GB, 32GB, and 64GB. The only downside is, it doesn't have an extra SSD slot.

Do not think I have reviewed the latter yet, so cant say sorry!

with the hdmi port you can go 85 inch or a cinema screen projector it doesn't matter, the graphics card can handle up to 4k or 8k easily

I have the same laptop slightly different specs. You will NOT be disappointed. However make sure you switch your fan to the " max " setting AND pair it will a cooler stand trust me makes a huge difference those games can deliver but are super demanding

@@squidbait4487about to buy one, now I’m buying a cooling stand too 😂

will it run good for league of legends and overwatch?@@squidbait4487

Hey how’s it working out? I get mine delivered tomorrow kinda skeptical bout the price tho

@@Sassytwylol2 how is it working out? im thinking buying it

You mean motion blur? Did u check in game settings

@@jansenallensigaton6328 no, just searches and found out that it has a little ghosting due to 9ms response time

75 watts

75w seems to be thest best one based on my research as it is often only 2 fps slower than 100 watts in most scenarios and likely runs quite a bit cooler @@EntertainBend01

For the most part yes.

Same boat as you looking for a laptop, the official HP website sells a better version for about 750.

It only has only 4 cores, what isn’t allot these days, I should recommend a 6core cpu for a laptop, but the speeds of the cpu are pretty good!

you dont need more than 4 cores when its for gaming@@DAVIDDOETHETFANGIRL

So what happened, what did you buy ?

Yup its currently in progress, it will be released in mid August on this channel, stay tuned :)

@@SoulOfTech ma man🤝i'm now subbed.

No

Whats your budget that might help him answer too

The laptop has been out for 2 months I believe so we wont know for a few years. With that said the 2022 model seems to be doing great so far and aside from the hinge issue does not have any major issues.

It really is

Really? How long you've been using this? I'm about to buy a Victus 15 and I'm a bit anxious since this will be my first gaming laptop.

@@DiannMoonlightdid you guys end up buying it? Really wanna buy it soon

@@DiannMoonlight same let me us know how it goes please

Agreed!

Good to know!

Fair take. Just trying to keep the review relative. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Hi, checkout the Dell G15 review I just put up. Its a good alternative.

I'm also wondering if it will lasts that long. This will be my first Gaming Laptop so I hope it will be worth it.

5-10 years is a huge ask for a lot of laptops. But I doubt this laptop will meet that requirement. I would think about getting an earlier iteration of a Lenovo legion laptop. They are sturdy and can reach that life span you are looking for.

@@TheFergo911 do you recommend lenovo ideapad gaming 3?

@@evilguy909 Depends on what you want to do with the laptop. If this is going to be the first laptop of yours and you have not done much of any gaming on console. Then I would say go for it. The reason is anyone who has a console and wants to buy this laptop to game on the go. They are going to need to change their expectations on what the laptop is capable of doing. You can easily play games that are in the realm of E sports titles. But triple A titles will require a lot of changing of settings which means less quality in your experience of said game. Now if you are okay with that and like to be able to do the other things like, editing videos and multitasking, this is perfect. But I reiterate this point again, 5-10 years for a laptop like this, that is a hard ask for someone who is wanting to play the latest and wants to not be experiencing hardware issues. Most laptops are going to have them anyway. But this laptop is going to have issues in 5 years. With every year games needing better graphics cards, this is not a laptop for 5-10 years.

Battery is usually cheap to exchange atleast with my gaming laptop. Don’t let people tell you gaming laptops are bad they probably don’t have one. From someone that has both a gaming pc and gaming laptop I always recommend a laptop if you want it for gaming as well as school or work since you can build a gaming setup with it and take it on the go. This laptop even thought it’s a good deal for the price not sure if it’ll last 10 years. I’m sure it can make it to 5 thought. If you really want something to last you I recommend spending a little more on a sturdier and more powerful laptop. The 4050 is good but since it’s a laptop and the gpu isn’t as good as normal 4050 it might have trouble later on. Like I said honestly it should last you 5 years if you take care of it of course. Should still be able to run most game at that time. Anything above 5 years honestly the gpu might have trouble as well as the build quality might not make it. Asus makes very good laptops and usually Can find them open box in some stores like Best Buy for a pretty good price. Same thing with Msi, Razer if you have the money, and other laptops that have a better gpu and better build quality.

What kind of problem?

@@Maxmilian5238I heard that these have a problem with the touchpad “sticking”, not sure what that means

@@coltj5907 I've got the i7 13700h rtx 4060 (it has been a month) and i have faced no problems with the touch pad yet. The only problem i have is that the hinges are kind of "changed" (the screen in the closed state is sticking out up a bit relative to what it was but it is minimal and cannot be seen without a thorough feel) and the screen is wobbly, but otherwise it is perfect.

75C surface temp? That would be a serious problem.

@@SoulOfTech while gaming yeah especially high display

How tf foes it reach 75?! LMAO

Btw I really need a laptop that I want to play fortnite and minecraft on but need it to do school work. which laptop do you use?
