The HP OmniBook 7 Laptop 17.3″ Touch screen with Core Ultra 5, 16GB RAM is going for $649.99 right now, which is 55% off and a claimed $800 in savings. For this price, you are getting a big 17.3 inch full HD touch screen, a current Intel Core Ultra 5 226V chip, Intel Arc 130V graphics with 8GB, and 16GB of onboard memory. It comes with a 512GB PCIe NVMe M.2 solid state drive and Windows 11 Home. If you want a machine that feels like a desktop replacement you can still move around the house or take on the road once in a while, this checks a lot of boxes without wrecking your budget.
The screen alone is a strong reason to grab this deal. A 17.3 inch, 1920 x 1080 IPS panel with touch, edge-to-edge glass, and 400 nits of brightness is pretty rare at this price. You get a lot of space for work: spreadsheets, timelines, browser tabs, and side-by-side windows all feel less cramped. The 86% screen-to-body ratio and micro-edge design mean the bezels are thin, so the laptop does not feel as huge as older 17 inch models. The touch screen also helps if you like to scroll with your finger, pinch to zoom on photos, or tap through slides and web pages instead of always using the trackpad.
On the inside, the Core Ultra 5 226V and Intel integrated SoC with Intel Arc 130V graphics are set up for everyday work and some light gaming or content work. The 8-core, 8-thread CPU with boost up to 4.5 GHz is more than enough for web work, Office apps, school work, streaming, light photo and video editing, and lots of Chrome tabs. The 16GB of RAM is onboard, which is standard in this class now, and it keeps things smooth when you run a bunch of apps at once. The 512GB PCIe NVMe SSD gives you fast boot times and quick app launches, and for a lot of people this size is fine for work files, a library of photos, and some games. If you know you pack your drive full, there are higher-capacity versions of this model (up to 1TB or 2TB SSD) in the same family, but for this sale price, the 512GB setup is a pretty fair middle ground.
You should look at this deal if you want a large touch screen laptop with enough power for day to day tasks, school, or home office work and you do not want to spend four figures. At $649.99 with a claimed $800 off, you are basically getting a desktop-style view, current-gen Intel hardware, 16GB of memory, and a fast SSD in one package that runs Windows 11 out of the box. If your current laptop feels cramped, slow, or you are working off a tiny 13 or 14 inch screen and keep wishing you had more room, this HP OmniBook 7 hits that “big, simple, and strong enough” sweet spot without paying premium gaming laptop prices.
