The HP Omen 15 is in the category of gaming laptops. Gaming laptops are the most expensive ones, but HP Omen starts from $820 which is not that expensive for a premium gaming SKU. Everyone who needs a laptop can have a look at this decent range of Omen laptops.

Based on gaming laptops it has a high-end CPU and also a better dedicated graphic card for the gamers to play recently released heavy games without a glitch.

Paklap.pk brings you a comparison of HP Omen 15 with other laptops like Lenovo Ideapad Y700 (Y700-15ISK) and Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559). All these are available on Paklap.pk for you to purchase.

HP Omen is a high-end gaming laptop with very high specifications. Lenovo Ideapad Y700 (Y700-15ISK) is also a gaming laptop with the same specs as of HP Omen, and Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559). However, it is just an average priced all-purpose laptop which can handle some high-end games only as it has specs that match its price.

Processor

HP Omen has 6th Gen Intel Core i7-6700HQ (2.6 GHz, up to 3.5 GHz, 6 MB cache, 4 cores) which is same as Lenovo Idea Pad’s Y700 processor and Dell Inspiron 15 7559's processor.

Clearly, all of these three models have i7 processor, which allows the user to work incredibly fast.

Display

All laptops have a 15.6-inch display. HP Omen has 15.6" diagonal UHD IPS UWVA anti- glare WLED-backlit (3840 x 2160). It has a 4K resolution, which is the latest technology to be added in laptops.

Lenovo Ideapad Y700 has 1920 x 1080 resolution, and its display is also anti-glare as of HP`s Omen.

Looking at Dell 15 7559 it has LED Backlit Anti-Glare Display with IPS FHD resolution (1920 x 1080) which is conventionally found in laptops and is an average laptop resolution. Though there is a touch screen version also available with a 4k resolution.

We see that HP Omen and Dell 7559 wins the battle in the displays.

Storage

First of all, we should know the difference between Solid state drive SSD and hard disk drive HDD. SSD is the newer technology as it doesn’t have any moving parts in it and the information is stored in the chips directly so it is a lot faster than the HDD and now most high-end laptops have SSD installed in it for faster performance.

HP Omen`s different models have a different hard drive but the one with a price tag of $1250, we get 1 TB HDD + 128 GB SSD. SSD are expensive and are faster, as gaming laptops need faster information handling, so SSD is a necessity of gaming laptop.

In Lenovo Ideapad Y700 it has a 1 TB HDD which seems enough but in reality, it will make all processes face slowdowns as HDD is not as fast. Even when you have plenty of RAMs, it may still run slower due to the HDD.

Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559) has a hybrid HDD. Hybrid HDD is a bit faster than regular Hard disk drive but is slower than the Solid state drive. Again there is a version of Dell Inspiron 7559 with 1TB HDD & 128/256GB SSD which is the most suitable storage for a gamer.

If you wonder how much 1 TB here is, we have an estimate. It can hold up to,

o 490000 HD Photos

o 196000 Standard Quality MP3s

o 245 HD Movies

o 65 Video Games

We clearly have a winner here as HP Omen has a combo of HDD and SSD it is the best of all because all heavy processing needs high data transfer rate which only the SSD can provide, so HP Omen stands victorious again.

RAM

HP Omen has 16GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM (2 x 8GB), on the other hand Lenovo Y700 has 8 GB DDR4-2133 SD RAM upgradable to 16GB. Dell Inspiron 7000 (7559) has 8 GB DDR3-1600 SD RAM which is also upgradable to 16GB RAM.

HP Omen has 16 GB RAM, which is more than both the other laptops. Also, the processing and multitasking is faster than ever before and will give users a spectacular processing speed.

Ports

HP Omen

HP Omen has 1x HDMI port for HDMI connectivity. It also has 4x USB 3.0 ports which we don’t usually see in other laptops. It has 1x Headphone/Mic Combination Port and this laptop also includes 1x Mini DisplayPort which is the newest edition to the connectivity ports.

Lenovo idea pad Y700

Lenovo idea pad has 2x USB 3.0 ports and one USB 2.0 port. It also has an HDMI port and for LAN connectivity it includes 1x Ethernet port.

Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559)

Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559) has 1x Ethernet port and 1x HDMI port. It also has 3x USB 3.0 ports.

Conclusively, HP Omen has the most USB 3 ports for faster data transfer and also has a new mini display port which others don’t have so you know who won again.

Graphics

HP Omen has GeForce GTX 960M with 4096MB of dedicated video memory. This card plays almost every game when coupled with a 6th generation i7 processor and 16GB RAM.

Lenovo Y700 also has same GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M 4GB, but it has been coupled with a 8 GB of RAM and an i7 processor which will make running high-end games a slow process, or have to run them on low settings.

Dell Inspiron 15 7000 (7559) also has the same GPU, with an i7 processor and 8 GB ram which if upgraded to 16 GB can match the gaming power of HP Omen 15.

Battery

HP Omen has 4-cell Lion battery which has a runtime of 4 hours which is average.

Lenovo idea pad also has four cell battery which due to lesser RAM than HP Omen can run up to 5 hours

Dell Inspiron 7000 ( 7559) has a six cell battery which is more potent as it has a runtime of 10 hours which is quite impressive.
