The Powerful HP OmniBook Ultra is $600 Off

Black Friday is no longer a single-day shopping event—you can already start shopping. Walmart’s sale is already live, as are Target’s and Best Buy’s. If you’re looking for a new laptop, Best Buy has a good selection of options right now, but one in particular stands out. If you’re looking for a no-nonsense laptop that will get you the best value for your money in performance, consider the 14-inch HP OmniBook Ultra, currently at $899.99 (originally $1,499.99), the lowest price I have seen per price-tracking tools.

If you’re looking for a workhorse that will breeze through demanding, heavy tasks like programming and media editing, then the HP OmniBook Ultra offers a great bang for your buck. It’s one of the fastest laptops with 14-inch display you can find.

The processor is an AMD Ryzen AI 9 365—if you’re not familiar with AMD’s terminology, you can think of it as somewhere between an i7 and i9 Intel processor, with 10 cores and 20 threads. In other words, it’s a high-end processor for power users looking for heavy multitasking or multimedia creation. The RAM sits at an impressive 32GB, perfect for demanding apps or games, and the 1TB SSD storage speaks for itself.

Where this laptop falls short is in its display. Although it is a touchscreen, the 2240 by 1400 is middling, and the AMD Radeon graphics are entry-level. But if you know you’ll be using it for work, then the HP OmniBook Ultra is a good choice.
