For the starting version. Each part is measured the same way for every laptop (processor and graphics from benchmark results) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Top-end GPU allowed to run at full power
  • RAM and both SSD slots are easy to reach
  • Comfortable keyboard with numpad
  • Desktop-class speed at a lower price than similar rivals
  • Bright matte 240 Hz screen (586 nits measured)
  • Sturdy metal body with tidy port layout and per-key RGB
  • Excellent gaming and work speed

Cons

  • Processor runs very hot in games
  • Heavy for a 16-inch machine
  • Speakers are on the quiet side
  • Keys and touchpad feel ordinary for the price
  • Processor gets hot in the top power mode
  • Weak speakers, finish attracts fingerprints, few screen options in India
  • Bulky and heavy
  • Tested Core Ultra 9 275HX / RTX 5090 175 W / OLED (US): very fast and easy to upgrade, but the cooling lets the CPU get very hot and slightly slower than Lenovo's Legion Pro 7i

  • DigitMay 2025

    Tested the India 16-ah0076TX (Core Ultra 9 275HX / RTX 5080 / IPS): HP's best gaming laptop yet and clearly cheaper than rivals with the same chips, though not flawless

  • Tested Core Ultra 9 275HX / RTX 5080 / OLED (US): Editors' Choice; quick for both games and creative work, with a calm look, but heavy and short on battery

  • PCWorldMay 2025

    Tested 16-ah0043dx (Core Ultra 9 275HX / RTX 5080 / OLED, US): performs like its rivals for a little less money, but plain and short on extras

  • Tested Core Ultra 9 275HX / RTX 5090 / OLED (US): HP's most capable gaming laptop so far and well built, but best kept plugged in
