The HP OmniBook 5 (14-he0011nf), originally priced at €1,199.99, is now on sale for €899.99 at Boulanger.
Slim and Lightweight Design
Featuring an aluminum chassis, a well-integrated black keyboard, and a thickness of just 1.26 cm, the HP OmniBook 5 evokes the aesthetic of Apple’s MacBook… but at a significantly lower price point. Overall, this ultrabook from HP is both elegant and minimalist, and remarkably lightweight at just 1.3 kg. This makes it an ideal companion for students or remote workers, and its compact size ensures it fits easily into a bag.
When opened, the laptop reveals a beautiful 14-inch touchscreen OLED display with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. Unsurprisingly, the display delivers infinite contrast, deep blacks, and vibrant colors, which will appeal to movie and series enthusiasts. The wide viewing angle is also ideal for multimedia consumption or even graphic content creation, as color perception remains reliable even when viewed from off-center.
Along the sides of the laptop, you’ll find a connectivity suite consisting of one USB-A port, two USB-C ports, and a combo headphone/microphone jack. This provides the essential ports without unnecessary clutter.
Hours of Work and Entertainment
A standout feature of the OmniBook 5 is its advertised 34-hour battery life. While these tests were conducted under ideal conditions for maximizing battery performance (video playback in Full HD only, Wi-Fi disconnected), real-world endurance is likely to be somewhat lower, but should still surpass many other laptops on the market.
This exceptional battery life is largely attributable to the integration of the Snapdragon X Plus X1P-42-100 processor, which is more energy-efficient than its Intel and AMD counterparts thanks to the chip’s ARM architecture. In terms of performance, this 8-core CPU can reach speeds of up to 3.4 GHz and is paired with 32 GB of RAM, providing increased responsiveness and fluidity, particularly for multitasking. Overall, this processor is more than sufficient for everyday tasks and office productivity.
It’s also worth noting that this OmniBook is Copilot+ certified, meaning it can run artificial intelligence locally. This capability is designed to enhance user productivity. Finally, the HP OmniBook includes a 512 GB SSD, delivering near-instant boot times and fast application loading.
