My first post here! Pretty solid deal on a premium (aluminum, oled etc)14" gaming laptop with code SAVOO5 at checkout. I've been eyeing an Zephyrus G14 but a similar spec one is nearly double the price.

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060
32GB LPDDR5x-7500 RAM
1TB SSD
14" 2.8K (2880x1800) OLED 120Hz display, HDR 500 nits, 100% DCI-P3
Aluminum chassis
Windows 11 Home
~1.6kg

RRP $4,999, down to $2,499 on the site, then SAVOO5 code takes another 5% off = $2,374.05

    Wonder if the price might get an update on the eBay store later tonight/tomorrow. Same product is $2499 after the 20% discount code.

    Link so I don't buy yet another laptop if it happens to drop in price there.

    Plus for the first post 👍

    HP gotten any better over the years? They use to be cheap plastic crap the last time i used one

    • I'll let you know in a couple of days. This one is all aluminum and YouTube reviews from channels I trust say the build quality is decent.

      • How did it go?

        • +1

          Very happy with it. Build quality is very good, the OLED screen is beautiful and it runs the few games I play (mainly Arc Raiders atm) on highest settings.

    • I looked at most major Windows brands today and the HPs actually stood out as the most nicely built and solid feeling. Dell and Lenovo in comparison still felt very flimsy.

    Never owned a Mac but wow do all windows laptops look like a shite deal in comparison these days.

      What $2,300 Mac will run Arc Raiders on high settings (or at all?). Different use cases my friend.

      As a current owner of a Macbook Air Msomething I actually ordered a new HP laptop today -

      Serious amount of RAM (32GB, double the Macbook air M4)

      Marginally faster CPU for multithreaded applications

      Faster graphics processing (although any graphics in something this size will be trash)

      Way, way better screen - this was the big one for me, the OLEDs on the HPs are glorious compared to the Macbook

      IMHO better keyboard

      Similar weight

      Both metal

      HP has more/more flexible ports

      HP lets me natively use Windows so I can get Win-Arrow keys back to actually manage my windows!!

      There was a real gap a couple of years ago (hence my current Macbook ownership) but IMHO these HPs are not far from the mark. Apple clearly has better build quality though.

      • Agree with different use cases, and I couldn't use Mac because I'm tied to windows for compatibility too. My daily driver is a HP Zbook Fury and it's a well built tank. It did however cost 7k. Business laptops with enterprise windows are great, but aren't cheap. Very few consumer laptops are well priced and well built, let alone the cluster that is consumer level windows 11. The current suite of mac laptops present comparatively good value with a more stable OS experience. The only reason not to buy it is because you're shackled to windows. If MS sorts windows and plays nice with Intel 18A, my opinion will be less favourable to Mac. Apple does take the piss with storage though.

        • I'm not shackled to Windows but as above I honestly can't cope with how awful the windows management scheme is in MacOS. I don't really understand how anyone can work with more than one document at once with it, it's simply awful for any sort of productivity work IMHO.

          The hardware on the other hand is beautiful, that battery life is something else.

  • General question, what do you guys do with your old laptop when you get a new one? Say, you don't have anyone to give it to or something?

      Place it in a cabinet.

        Send to me lol :) ill pass on to a disabled person who couldnt afford such a thing.

      • Sell or give away on ebay, marketplace, etc.
      • Google where to donate working laptops to charities/non-profits in your location.
      • Trade-in at Officeworks if applicable, or dispose for recycling at Officeworks or other municipal e-waste collection venue in your location.
      • Use as a door-stopper.

  • I have an Omen from about 8 years ago.

    It weighs a brick, has been dropped by the kids a few times (had to replace parts of the case) and sounds like an airplane taking off when working hard - but it’s still going!

  • Hmmm been looking at one of these here in NZ….. HP "Sales" are all over the place, as it is right now…

    HP AU store = $2375AUD. ($2847NZD) "50% off"
    HP NZ store = $3400NZD "38% off"

    So could..

    Buy Laptop and get it to sent to Family in Aussie ($2847NZD)
    Fligths to Aussie Return ($500NZD)
    Visit Family (Free)
    Claim GST at Airport on way back -$284NZD)
    Total = $3064NZD… $346NZD cheaper than buying it here …. .
