hey john. i just got the victus amd ryzen 5, 16gb ram, rtx 3050 ti. same reason it's for when i head into university. however im hearing lots of complaints and worries of the temperature it goes to so do u know what to do about that
@@XPhoax any laptop when you use the full power of it, it will heat a bit, with good room air this solve itself also by the cooling system so don't worry much in this case and go for it though
I purchased a HP i7 Victus, even though the screen wobble is something that I expected better from HP. Having said that the laptop in general has so far worked well. I am also glad that you are a reviewer that can see positives in the HP Victus. Many reviewers are not as kind. It is a shame because in general it's a nice looking laptop and does what it is suppose to do. Thanks for your positive outlook.
I also got the i7 12 gen model and i agree it met all my expectations. As a laptop gamer one of my worries were cooling and performance since i had bad experience with my previous laptop, but not only is this thing a beast and can play basically anything, it also has phenomenal cooling for a laptop. Like i was genuinely surprised by how cold it was even after hours of gaming. The fans do make a lot of noise but that's a trade off im willing to take for good cooling anyday
I’ve been looking to buy the 4050 i7 HP Victus because my og HP omen (which is identical to the new victus) is starting to go and I’d really love to know from someone who actually has one whether it lives up to the expectations of the older omens. I’ve had several laptops bought and returned in the last year that are supposed to be the best in the market and none yet have held a candle to my little nearly 9 year old Omen. However, I hate the look of the new omens hence why I haven’t bought one. The victus I love the look of. Could you say whether the battery and cooling is any good as I’m willing to immediately buy one if you think it’s good. I’m in desperate need for a new laptop.
Like I said in my previous post, the Victus looks and performs very well my only big issue is the wobbly screen. It is very fast, but I’m still using my old Toshiba Satallite. I haven’t yet transferred all my files to the new Victus, because my old Toshiba is still very reliable and easy to backup. I think the only real reason I purchased the Victus was for the speed usb-3 so I could play the more modern games.
11th gen i5 with a 4th gen m2 ssd, the ram pack it came with was just 8 gigs so I updated to 16, 3050ti video for 700 euros, in all fairness best buy in electronics I had past decades. never had any HP products, i usually went with asus and apple, at worst dell, HP really won this for me, also on their webpage they have a great table of content with full specs on how to disassemble and service the laptop better than car manufacturers. all in all, best.
What's interesting is the day you released your first video on this laptop, I went to the site directly and got a different price, but when I went through you link, I got the price you referenced in that video. HP has been known for this in the past, and then sometimes you get something you didn't order.
I love this type of laptop. Bought an hp with i5 and radeon r5 m330 4 years ago around 600 usd and it's "good enough" but not for open world and lacking for render or 3d designs. That rtx 3050 at 800 gives me joy
In February I bought the hp 15 from walmart for $598 i59300h gtx 1650 and 8 gb ram (later 16 dual channel upgrade) and it’s still able to handle halo infinite up to %85 resolution scale if need…medium across except textures low (hd pack dl) vsync on and it averages 60fps. Just saying what 600 got me in early 2021…
Are you saying that HP Victus with 3050 is enough for an acceptable 3D rendering performance? I hear it's display is bad. I am looking for a laptop for mainly graphic design work, and beginner level Aftereffects etc just to learn it...
I recently got a 6800H/2x8 ddr5-4800 /3050 Ti/500 GB NVMe victus 16.1" e1163nr machine for $899 and its awesome for the price. It also comes with a decent 144 Hz 1080p "IPS level" display. Good battery level, excellent performance and temps for a laptop, awesome laptop overall.
For anyone else wondering,… Yes, this is Oculus Link compatible. Yes, this works with Steam VR. Yes, Star Wars Squadrons (VR) runs “OK” on it. Source: I own a Victus and tested the above.
@@furqaanahmed193 I got it a few days ago. The screen does wobble but nothing to worry about as it only wobbles if you try to do it deliberately. It's perfect overall
No atleast brands have recognized there should be some option in the budget segment for gamers and decent specs with the rise in AMD chips in laptop this was surely possible..... I hope DELL will also bring in something similar.... Nice work 👍
The i5 is bought at Best buy. The top model is using a Ryzen 7 and a 3060 which is far better then the i5. The reason for the Ryazn 5 with the 1650 to be priced where it is at is because they go up in price based on the CPU and GPU you buy.
Thank you so much for your video! I just ordered this at Best Buy for $899 (it was out of stock), but I wanted to see if there was a review that was easy for a non-computer person to understand. You eased a lot of my anxieties about what to expect with this laptop. I actually liked how it looked and everything, I was just worried a little about what it was capable of. I'm a little sad that the screen is dim, but I think it should be fine. I needed a device for college and gaming that wasn't over $1,000, and I think I found it.
hey everyday dad! just wanted to say that i love the perspective you review these machines from and i would like to offer a suggestion. i recently purchased the dell inspiron 16 because i wanted the new 2021 xps 15 9510 but it was speced nearly identical to the dell xps 15 (graphics card in mine is a 3050 rather than a 3050 ti) but for around 700 dollars cheaper. ive been using it and it's been fantastic! i reccomend that you do a review on it as you'll get a lot of content out of it and it's a laptop that people want to see reviewed because there aren't very many reviews of it online!
Just picked up one of these for $600 at walmart running a rtx 4050. Havnt bought a laptop in probably over 10 years. I’m pretty blown away with everything on this. The screens a 144hz ips 15.6” with decently power hardware, enough to run most games at a high framerate, and if im not playing games, the battery is surprisingly long lasting. Im finding I get roughly 8 hours of watching videos on it. 2 usb a ports, usb c port, hdmi, ethernet, sd port, headphone port. Its amazing the cheap laptops are STILL the ones with all the port functionality and paying more gives u less ports 😂 For 600 bucks im impressed with todays budget gaming laptop market. No it doesnt run the most cutting edge demanding games. Battlefield 2042 in a big 128 man map with all low settings 1080p runs like crap around 30-50fps. But games like counter strike, rocket league, league of legends run like butter at 144fps. It did only come with 8gb of ram and 500gb drive. But memory is stupid cheap now. Another 8gb sodimm costed me 20$.
I honestly love this laptop. The screen does wobble a good bit but once it’s on a flat service it really shouldn’t wobble much. I can run almost everything on ultra and I love how fast everything is. My first ever “gaming” laptop. I quote gaming because it’s not as heavy duty as many other gaming laptops, but it runs fantastically regardless.
@@neelampal7247 Yes I do! Mine came with windows 10, and I upgraded to windows 11 and it took up so much space. I had to get an external hard drive because of the update. Other than that, it runs perfectly! The fans really get loud on heavy graphics settings but it does pretty well at cooling itself off while you’re playing your games. As for the wobble, it can get annoying but I mean it’s really not a big issue. The laptop runs great, and the wobble doesn’t even hurt its performance. Just be a bit more careful with moving the screen constantly, and lay it on a flat surface.
@@lookatcurryman4811 That I do not know. I don’t play those games so I couldn’t really give you my experience with them especially on this specific laptop. But really it shouldn’t have much of an issue as long as you can tweak the graphics in the games settings if need be.
@@SmolBean98thanks for replying mate. will the wobble not increase if we use it for say 4 years ? i mean in the long term wont the hinges get even more loose . also i wanted to know about battery life on normal usage (no gaming or heavy apps)
Bought this laptop for my church's live stream about a month after it launched. After this review, I think it might be my next laptop. My old HP Pavilion Power is dying hard which sucks, but it was just a poorly designed model.
@@Hi-zx9sl will do, I'm just waiting for it to arrive. Been on hold for 5 months now, so as a warning if it is good please be aware that it takes a long time to ship. TBH I am expecting this laptop to get around 4-6 hours of battery life with light day usage. My Pavilion Power 15 gets around 5 doing word processing, watching videos and listening to music. Only about 1 and a half doing gaming. I do honestly expect this laptop to be plugged in just of the time, it's a streaming system for us, but I'm sure I'm gonna give it a run for it's money to see how long it can run for on the battery.
I bought this laptop a week ago and besides the battery being the absolute worst, I've generally been happy with my purchase. Although when I got it from best buy there were no modification options, so I agree that the inconsistency is annoying because the brighter screen would've been great.
To all concerned about the WOBBLE, it definitely does not wobble so bad. Infact it does not even need a mention feels normal to me. Have just received my Victus in India. UPDATE: Screen wobbles under a running fan but I am total fine with it as goes unnoticed.
I used it over a year. Bought the HP Laptop 16-e0095AX (AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H; 16 GB RAM; 1TB Storage). Works perfectly, everything is dope. Only bad thing is the wifi card which is faulty which makes my game lag and freeze every minute for 1 second. I had it replaced with a Intel AX210 WIFI 6E card and it is so good now. No cons, just have to replace the wifi card.
I dont like people who do reviews because of sponsers because they are getting paid and might say stuff that is more than it really is. People like you have an honest opinion on the laptop and you are not altering your opinion because you were paid by the company.
honestly its perfect, i have a custom pc for gaming already and just copped the victus for 3d rendering and beat making. it gets the job done anywhere pretty damn well, never seen a laptop to this extent for under $800 (CAD) definitely recommend for anyone trying to get a laptop.
Lol I snagged this exact laptop for $400 on facebook marketplace cause it had a broken keyboard, replaced the keyboard it works perfectly. Also anyone wondering on random fps benchmarks: All 1080p 1. Mhworld highest settings - 60fps 2. Halo infinite med - 60fps/high - 40-50fps 3. Destiny 2 highest settings - 60fps 4. Minecraft textures plus ultra shaders and max settings for graphics and render distances - over 60fps, take off shaders easily 200+ fps Vsync on for most these games, take vsync off and you get higher fps Also the laptop is perfectly comfortable to use, I agree the screen wobbles but just put it on a table, also the fans run a bit loud on max usage but it also cools itself very well so you can use it at max and not worry if its gonna melt or burn you...
i bought this to replace my desktop and is performing well. So It is doing great for the price i paid. I got this because of the fact that i will be able to update it in the future and it has all the latest peripherals
I've had two HP Pavilion gaming laptops. The first one was fixed twice under warranty for pixel failure. This occurred a third time - out of warranty - and then the keyboard died. I gave up and bought another one because I was able to stack a few discounts together and it came in very cheap for the specs and thought I must have just been unlucky. This next one lasted all of 3 months before being back to the service centre for--pixel failure. I found HP's customer service to be torturous to deal with. I still quite like it. It looks nice, has a great keyboard and runs games very well. I don't honestly think it would survive many trips to clients' offices though, no matter how many ports it has Pretty much everything flexes if you squeeze it and the trackpad is now loose. I wonder how long that wobbly Victus screen will actually last. Sometimes, things being cheap comes with a cost. I will probably look at Asus next time as they seem to be pretty solid.
Did they have to build yours or it was already in stock and shipped a week or two later cause me I ordered a omen 15 and they are still building it since July 25 ☹️
After watching so many expensive tech, watching this feels some kind of weird relief it's like I have crush on a movie actress buy somewhere I know I will get my neighbourhood chick just like somewhere I know I can actually afford this laptop!
If you would could show the performance in games and the benchmark scores clearly this video would have been excellent, pls try to incorporate, like jarrods tech for example has clear graphs and benchmark scores in laptop reviews.
The Victus compromises alot on build quality the screen is a big bummer for me .I ended up getting a Asus Vivobook 16x with the same specs as a Victus and a 32gb ram kit and it was still cheaper than getting a 12th gen i5 Victus.
I wanted to buy the Asus vivobook 16x but I don’t know if it can handle games too well? Like for example I’d love to play shooter / zombie games. Is the asus worth it ?
@@mugetsutv5784 I have play doom eternal and it runs at 120+ fps. It's more than sufficient for normal gameplay. It's more creator focused laptop so it's good for photo and video editing
Does it have a MUX switch? Does connecting an external display connect to directly to the dedicated nvda GPU or does it route it through the IGPU? Asking this because direct DGPU gives an FPS boost in FPS games!
I think the reason for a sale may have been a back to school sale / labor day / Cyber Monday, depending on when u got it. It was recently on sale for the same prices on the video for a back to school sale
Does it have a Sound card that supports 7.1 Virtual Surround sound? Many cheaper laptops tend to have 2Ch/5.1ch audio codec sound cards that lack 7.1 VSS ability.
I have never heard of this laptop but its nice! I appreciate your user experience review because specs are gibberish to me lol However you should change the title to budget GAMING laptop because its cheap for a gaming laptop, not a laptop in general
I just bought the Victus 5800H /16GB RAM / 3050 RTX for 999€ here in France, and other than the 60Hz screen, I think I’m gonna love it ! I play only one game, Football Manager and it’s gonna suit me just fine, I’m receiving it Wednesday and I can’t wait !
@@the3rdmaster311 get the gigabyte gd g5 it has better build quality screen and upgradablity but worse battery and low quality speakers and has no bloat ware.

Honestly, I appreciate your channel as the "user experience" means more to me than some technical charts and figures📉📈. Regarding HP's notebook keyboards, I don't think HP gets credit for making decent keyboards, even in their budget lines like the Pavilion. I'm from the old school (IBM ThinkPad keyboard) and just love 💕😘 my HP Omen's keyboard ⌨️ feel and ease of use.

Thanks for the vid bro. By the way, do you know how can i access the battery health management for hp victus? Or if there's anyway I can set a charging limit whilst plugged in?
Audio extremely low even at 100% in the amd rtx 3060 version. Tried uinstalling the audio driver and restarting. Same issue is persisting. Any help will be fantastic
All HP laptops are screwed with audio, after a Windows 10 update. You can download a program Guru3d DDU to uninstall the GPU audio drivers but it still is a load of rubbish
Thats the only thing I am concerned about, although I wont be travelling at all with it and I take good care of my devices. Do you reckon I could get away with the wobbly display?
@@lucif3r_op920 It depends on you.I will also be using it stationary mostly , but can't live with it seeing display flexing everytime . Maybe some people won't bother abt it :)
i bought the AMD ryzen 7 5800H, RTX3050ti, 16 gb ram, 1 TB SSD model and been using it for 2 years. here is an honest review for you. i bought it only for it's specs, not considered anything else such as brand name, case design, weight, fan noise, thermals etc. POSITIVE : +It works great as expected from these components. +no thermal issue and no fan noise so far. +cheap price for such high end components. +144 hz display refresh rate. +AMD laptops are quite rare on INTEL dominated market. HP Victus series were the only ones with complete specs by the time. Because other brands had either low-end CPU/GPU or their SSD/RAM would need an upgrade. NEGATIVE : -the case has absolutely no radius corners, it hurts my palms when i'm typing. radius corners is a general rule in engineering but i guess they skipped it to save price (i still don't think it would be an extra cost tho). -made of all plastic, it weighs quite a lot as 2,5 kg (it might be due to high end components). -the power button is between F12 and DEL and it's the exact same size button with the others. you can accidentally press it while using backspace or DEL buttons and shutdown/sleep your PC if you didn't re-program it to do nothing when pressed. I guess this is also saving cost to not move it into top left/right corners of keyboard just like other brands always do (p.s. good luck finding the power button in a dark room). -battery discharges at a rate of 3% per day. i disabled usb charging and fast startup from BIOS and power settings and it didn't solve it. I called the HP support and hoped that they would change the battery under warranty period by saying that it's a faulty battery. They just connected online to my PC and operated some HP diagnostics tests and verified from BIOS that my battery needs no calibration. Also said that up to 5% discharge per day is totally normal, therefore they won't change my battery. To sum up everything, buy it if you care nothing but performance. Connect it into a monitor, keyboard and mouse and use it as a desktop. However always keep in mind that a desktop with even lower-end components would outperform the laptop. And it would cost much cheaper. Not to mention that you can't upgrade nothing else but SSD/RAM on a laptop so it won't be a future proof investment. My honest opinion on gaming laptops, due to thermals of such small casing and poor performance of components compared to desktop version, consider them as being a solid mobile PC that you can carry everywhere. Always go with desktop if you are a serious gamer.
Planning to purchase one for work and very light gaming. I dont mind the screen quality since it will be connected to a desktop monitor nearly all the time.
I think the cooling system in this laptop is very decent mainly because of the dual fan/heat pipe setup. If you were worried about that laptops cooling system, try looking at the MSI Cyborg. It has a 4050 with a 13th gen i5 which only has 1 fan in it xD Granted the TDP for the GPU is about 45 watts but still. Gaming laptops of all kinds should at least have a duel fan/heat pipe setup
@@duckpotat9818 yeah man i myself rock an HP laptop with almost crap specs (i3 6006U/4GB 2133MHz SODIMM/5yrs old) but after some tweaking within the bios I can legit play games like Far Cry 4, Skyrim, GTA V (tho it gets unplayable after completing 30% of the story maybe due to a crappy Hard Drive) and still haven't seen much issues expt the battery being dead (no kidding it cannot keep itself on for more than 5mins on battery). The build quality is pretty great and I'm really in love with this laptop. (but ill be buying a new laptop for university this year (preferably the Acer Swift X (if it really launches lol))) Also the hard disk has become absolutely shit with speeds gone down to 50mbps but that's i guess because of the RAM bottleneck.
My HP is kind of a peice of crap, but it was just a bad model. My old one is almost 14 years old and still going. My dad's company bought it in 2008, it's now again a company computer for my friends dad's car shop.
Nope you just gotta place on a flat clear surface and dont over heat it. If your just using youtube shopping internet browsing then laptop will stay very cool and quite but for gaming the fan will kick and gets sometime hot.
Basic? Understatement. Laptop glows red and power brick goes into meltdown after 5 minutes of normal usage. The noise is enough to wake the dead, avoid.
Has anyone been able to use Softwares such as: Unity, Blender, Maya 2020, Substance Painter, Unreal Engine, Visual Studio, and Zbrush on this HP - Victus 16.1" Gaming Laptop? If so were you able to Render 3D Models easily in the 3D modeling programs? I'm a Game Design major that wants to make the best decision to purchase a budget-friendly laptop with a decent performance.
Yep! Works splendidly. It takes a slight bit of time (keep in mind that I have the Ryzen 5 version with Nvidia 1650 and 8GB ram) but it's nothing too torturous
I have Asus budget laptop expertbook 2451FA from 2020. It can be expanded both in regards to storage, ram, and even WiFi card. It has both HDMI and VGA. High end Asus machines can neither be upgraded and many don't even have HDMI.
I'm from india! Ur review on victus is amazing! But there is no launch of victus intel varients in india. Its only AMD processor... So is ryzen 7 5800h good??????
ryzen 7 is obviously better . intel is still stuck making ancient processors. for example : ryzen 5 4600h from last year is almost equal to intel i7 10th gen from last year (both processors are in different price categories. so performance of intel i7 is supposed to be better. but instead ryzen 5 had equal processing power compared to i7 and it completely destroyed intel i5 )
@@shashwatshekhar6867 there will be small difference . if you are doing heavy video editing, streaming, coding, rendering etc then get r7. can do all of that in r5 also, just a few seconds slower. if you are average user r5 is enough
@@allenwalker9928 you mean intel just started doing what AMD was doing since 2020 ? the whole reason intel decided to improve was because they lost market share last year due to better amd cpu's with new architecture and more cores. Of course its the customers choice. nothing wrong with intel's new processors . if you have the money sure get it. I personally suggest getting AMD chips that are priced lower thats all. you can spend the money you save on other accessories this way
What do you think about its hinge ? Since everyone is worried about the built quality of the hinge..is it ok or do we have to handle it with extra care
I recently bought this laptop and looking forward to receiving it soon! Thank you for the review.. Was looking all over the net for a reliable source.! First proper review by someone who's had an actual hands on experience.. I just had one question.. Can we upgrade the storage though? Do we have an extra slot or will we have to replace the current stock ssd?

I recently got a 6800H/2x8 ddr5-4800 /3050 Ti/500 GB NVMe victus 16.1" e1163nr machine for $899 and its awesome for the price. It also comes with a decent 144 Hz 1080p "IPS level" display. Good battery level, excellent performance and temps for a laptop, awesome laptop overall.
How much does the battery last while taking notes? And aslo is it comfortable if we sit for long hrs staring in screen especially when coding
For anyone else wondering,…
Yes, this is Oculus Link compatible.
Yes, this works with Steam VR.
Yes, Star Wars Squadrons (VR) runs “OK” on it.
Source: I own a Victus and tested the above.
I just ordered it. The highest variant. My only concern is that screen wobble. How are those hinges holding up ?
@@bobbyfischer7179 same, I want to buy it in India but the screen wobble worries me
@@bobbyfischer7179 I would like to know abt screen wobble too
@@furqaanahmed193 I got it a few days ago. The screen does wobble but nothing to worry about as it only wobbles if you try to do it deliberately. It's perfect overall
@@bobbyfischer7179 it wobbles if there is a ceiling fan above, running on speed 4 and above.
No atleast brands have recognized there should be some option in the budget segment for gamers and decent specs with the rise in AMD chips in laptop this was surely possible..... I hope DELL will also bring in something similar.... Nice work 👍
They have their G15 line which is exactly what you're looking for.
The i5 is bought at Best buy. The top model is using a Ryzen 7 and a 3060 which is far better then the i5. The reason for the Ryazn 5 with the 1650 to be priced where it is at is because they go up in price based on the CPU and GPU you buy.
Thank you so much for your video! I just ordered this at Best Buy for $899 (it was out of stock), but I wanted to see if there was a review that was easy for a non-computer person to understand. You eased a lot of my anxieties about what to expect with this laptop. I actually liked how it looked and everything, I was just worried a little about what it was capable of. I'm a little sad that the screen is dim, but I think it should be fine. I needed a device for college and gaming that wasn't over $1,000, and I think I found it.
The screen is only dim by default out of the box. I just got one of these today. You'd have to go into settings and change the brightness of a screen
@@XAMPOL hello, hows the battery life? I hope it lasts over 2 hours 😹
And is is good for gaming
Same! By the way how is your laptop after 5 months? How is its performance, I would really appreciate it if you reply back thank you!!
@@Extradub32p it's awesome! Runs great and I honestly have no issues.
hey everyday dad! just wanted to say that i love the perspective you review these machines from and i would like to offer a suggestion. i recently purchased the dell inspiron 16 because i wanted the new 2021 xps 15 9510 but it was speced nearly identical to the dell xps 15 (graphics card in mine is a 3050 rather than a 3050 ti) but for around 700 dollars cheaper. ive been using it and it's been fantastic! i reccomend that you do a review on it as you'll get a lot of content out of it and it's a laptop that people want to see reviewed because there aren't very many reviews of it online!
I would've gone for this if I still had an entry-level job. It looks way more attractive than the Aver Nitro 5 and Dell G3.
Dell g15 ryzen edition is about the same price though
Yeah, I'm glad HP has learned from their red and black OMEN puke
Just picked up one of these for $600 at walmart running a rtx 4050. Havnt bought a laptop in probably over 10 years. I’m pretty blown away with everything on this. The screens a 144hz ips 15.6” with decently power hardware, enough to run most games at a high framerate, and if im not playing games, the battery is surprisingly long lasting. Im finding I get roughly 8 hours of watching videos on it. 2 usb a ports, usb c port, hdmi, ethernet, sd port, headphone port. Its amazing the cheap laptops are STILL the ones with all the port functionality and paying more gives u less ports 😂
For 600 bucks im impressed with todays budget gaming laptop market. No it doesnt run the most cutting edge demanding games. Battlefield 2042 in a big 128 man map with all low settings 1080p runs like crap around 30-50fps. But games like counter strike, rocket league, league of legends run like butter at 144fps. It did only come with 8gb of ram and 500gb drive. But memory is stupid cheap now. Another 8gb sodimm costed me 20$.
I honestly love this laptop.
The screen does wobble a good bit but once it’s on a flat service it really shouldn’t wobble much.
I can run almost everything on ultra and I love how fast everything is.
My first ever “gaming” laptop. I quote gaming because it’s not as heavy duty as many other gaming laptops, but it runs fantastically regardless.
I’m getting this soon. Can it run gta,cod?
do you recommend to buy it? i am almost set to buy it just if i get this wobble thing out of my mind
@@neelampal7247 Yes I do! Mine came with windows 10, and I upgraded to windows 11 and it took up so much space. I had to get an external hard drive because of the update.
Other than that, it runs perfectly! The fans really get loud on heavy graphics settings but it does pretty well at cooling itself off while you’re playing your games. As for the wobble, it can get annoying but I mean it’s really not a big issue. The laptop runs great, and the wobble doesn’t even hurt its performance. Just be a bit more careful with moving the screen constantly, and lay it on a flat surface.
@@lookatcurryman4811 That I do not know.
I don’t play those games so I couldn’t really give you my experience with them especially on this specific laptop. But really it shouldn’t have much of an issue as long as you can tweak the graphics in the games settings if need be.
@@SmolBean98thanks for replying mate.
will the wobble not increase if we use it for say 4 years ? i mean in the long term wont the hinges get even more loose .
also i wanted to know about battery life on normal usage (no gaming or heavy apps)
I just needed a work laptop and something that can handle small games and this is perfect!
I got one around christmas 2021. Ryzen 7 5800H with an RTX 3060. I use it for work as well as gaming and it's been awesome so far.
Is screen shake bad? Or do you not have it.
Bought this laptop for my church's live stream about a month after it launched. After this review, I think it might be my next laptop. My old HP Pavilion Power is dying hard which sucks, but it was just a poorly designed model.
Did u bought it?
If you did please inform me about the battery life of it when you are just doing everyday normal tasks on that laptop :D
@@Hi-zx9sl will do, I'm just waiting for it to arrive. Been on hold for 5 months now, so as a warning if it is good please be aware that it takes a long time to ship.
TBH I am expecting this laptop to get around 4-6 hours of battery life with light day usage. My Pavilion Power 15 gets around 5 doing word processing, watching videos and listening to music. Only about 1 and a half doing gaming.
I do honestly expect this laptop to be plugged in just of the time, it's a streaming system for us, but I'm sure I'm gonna give it a run for it's money to see how long it can run for on the battery.
@@Hi-zx9sl battery life is about 5 hours, it's not good, but not bad. We use this exclusively on the AC charger.
@@Hi-zx9sl also my laptop Pavilion died, the battery collapsed on itself.
@@samgray49 your pavillion died?

I bought this laptop a week ago and besides the battery being the absolute worst, I've generally been happy with my purchase. Although when I got it from best buy there were no modification options, so I agree that the inconsistency is annoying because the brighter screen would've been great.
The GPU is a beast for a laptop, no wonder it consumes alot of power
Besides the battery timing, how was your experience with HP Victus! I am asking bcz I am also gonna buy the same one from best buy!

To all concerned about the WOBBLE, it definitely does not wobble so bad. Infact it does not even need a mention feels normal to me. Have just received my Victus in India.

@@nicolasEmezai got it closed and upgraded the ram to 16 and it works good, got it for around 850$
I used it over a year. Bought the HP Laptop 16-e0095AX (AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H; 16 GB RAM; 1TB Storage). Works perfectly, everything is dope. Only bad thing is the wifi card which is faulty which makes my game lag and freeze every minute for 1 second. I had it replaced with a Intel AX210 WIFI 6E card and it is so good now. No cons, just have to replace the wifi card.
I dont like people who do reviews because of sponsers because they are getting paid and might say stuff that is more than it really is. People like you have an honest opinion on the laptop and you are not altering your opinion because you were paid by the company.
Victus is gaming laptop,you cannot compare it to macbook,mac is office laptop
honestly its perfect, i have a custom pc for gaming already and just copped the victus for 3d rendering and beat making. it gets the job done anywhere pretty damn well, never seen a laptop to this extent for under $800 (CAD) definitely recommend for anyone trying to get a laptop.
i have this laptop and i absolutely love it for gaming
What games do you run on it ? Have you experienced any issues ? I just bought one yesterday
Lol I snagged this exact laptop for $400 on facebook marketplace cause it had a broken keyboard, replaced the keyboard it works perfectly. Also anyone wondering on random fps benchmarks:
All 1080p
1. Mhworld highest settings - 60fps
2. Halo infinite med - 60fps/high - 40-50fps
3. Destiny 2 highest settings - 60fps
4. Minecraft textures plus ultra shaders and max settings for graphics and render distances - over 60fps, take off shaders easily 200+ fps
Vsync on for most these games, take vsync off and you get higher fps
Also the laptop is perfectly comfortable to use, I agree the screen wobbles but just put it on a table, also the fans run a bit loud on max usage but it also cools itself very well so you can use it at max and not worry if its gonna melt or burn you...
What is the battery life for casual use (non gaming) and temperature (while gaming)?
Amazing laptop. Getting one soon
i bought this to replace my desktop and is performing well. So It is doing great for the price i paid. I got this because of the fact that i will be able to update it in the future and it has all the latest peripherals
I've had two HP Pavilion gaming laptops. The first one was fixed twice under warranty for pixel failure. This occurred a third time - out of warranty - and then the keyboard died. I gave up and bought another one because I was able to stack a few discounts together and it came in very cheap for the specs and thought I must have just been unlucky.
This next one lasted all of 3 months before being back to the service centre for--pixel failure. I found HP's customer service to be torturous to deal with. I still quite like it. It looks nice, has a great keyboard and runs games very well. I don't honestly think it would survive many trips to clients' offices though, no matter how many ports it has Pretty much everything flexes if you squeeze it and the trackpad is now loose. I wonder how long that wobbly Victus screen will actually last.
Sometimes, things being cheap comes with a cost. I will probably look at Asus next time as they seem to be pretty solid.
Thanks for this review, I'm pretty convinced to buy this now :)
Did they have to build yours or it was already in stock and shipped a week or two later cause me I ordered a omen 15 and they are still building it since July 25 ☹️

mux switch is maximum time given by Lenovo

Does it have a Sound card that supports 7.1 Virtual Surround sound? Many cheaper laptops tend to have 2Ch/5.1ch audio codec sound cards that lack 7.1 VSS ability.

So, will this lineup replace the Pavilion Gaming? Or is it between Pavilion Gaming and Omen?
TBH I think Pavilion is gonna go obsolete.
@@meowmeow6460 why?
Yup, I'm convinced.
i bought the AMD ryzen 7 5800H, RTX3050ti, 16 gb ram, 1 TB SSD model and been using it for 2 years. here is an honest review for you.
i bought it only for it's specs, not considered anything else such as brand name, case design, weight, fan noise, thermals etc.
POSITIVE :
+It works great as expected from these components.
+no thermal issue and no fan noise so far.
+cheap price for such high end components.
+144 hz display refresh rate.
+AMD laptops are quite rare on INTEL dominated market. HP Victus series were the only ones with complete specs by the time. Because other brands had either low-end CPU/GPU or their SSD/RAM would need an upgrade.
NEGATIVE :
-the case has absolutely no radius corners, it hurts my palms when i'm typing. radius corners is a general rule in engineering but i guess they skipped it to save price (i still don't think it would be an extra cost tho).
-made of all plastic, it weighs quite a lot as 2,5 kg (it might be due to high end components).
-the power button is between F12 and DEL and it's the exact same size button with the others. you can accidentally press it while using backspace or DEL buttons and shutdown/sleep your PC if you didn't re-program it to do nothing when pressed. I guess this is also saving cost to not move it into top left/right corners of keyboard just like other brands always do (p.s. good luck finding the power button in a dark room).
-battery discharges at a rate of 3% per day. i disabled usb charging and fast startup from BIOS and power settings and it didn't solve it. I called the HP support and hoped that they would change the battery under warranty period by saying that it's a faulty battery. They just connected online to my PC and operated some HP diagnostics tests and verified from BIOS that my battery needs no calibration. Also said that up to 5% discharge per day is totally normal, therefore they won't change my battery.
To sum up everything, buy it if you care nothing but performance. Connect it into a monitor, keyboard and mouse and use it as a desktop. However always keep in mind that a desktop with even lower-end components would outperform the laptop. And it would cost much cheaper. Not to mention that you can't upgrade nothing else but SSD/RAM on a laptop so it won't be a future proof investment.
My honest opinion on gaming laptops, due to thermals of such small casing and poor performance of components compared to desktop version, consider them as being a solid mobile PC that you can carry everywhere. Always go with desktop if you are a serious gamer.
Planning to purchase one for work and very light gaming. I dont mind the screen quality since it will be connected to a desktop monitor nearly all the time.
How's the battery life ? How many hours does it last at normal usage?
i wanna know the same
6 - 7 hours on average
@@nimishkamra1822 wheres this info from?
I'm using the AMD version, it offers at least 7 hours of use in normal use
@@m4v141 how are the temps
I think the cooling system in this laptop is very decent mainly because of the dual fan/heat pipe setup. If you were worried about that laptops cooling system, try looking at the MSI Cyborg. It has a 4050 with a 13th gen i5 which only has 1 fan in it xD Granted the TDP for the GPU is about 45 watts but still. Gaming laptops of all kinds should at least have a duel fan/heat pipe setup
I'm not sure about the longevity and durability of this laptop. I doubt whether it would have hardware issues after a year.
I've had 2 HP laptops in the last 14 years, both work perfectly fine except needing battery replacements and the older one's fan dying once
@@duckpotat9818 Older HP laptops generally have better longevity. Newer models generally break much more quickly.

The build quality is pretty great and I'm really in love with this laptop.
(but ill be buying a new laptop for university this year (preferably the Acer Swift X (if it really launches lol)))
Also the hard disk has become absolutely shit with speeds gone down to 50mbps but that's i guess because of the RAM bottleneck.
Do you have one?
My HP is kind of a peice of crap, but it was just a bad model. My old one is almost 14 years old and still going. My dad's company bought it in 2008, it's now again a company computer for my friends dad's car shop.
Is there any problem with the overheating while using it?
Nope you just gotta place on a flat clear surface and dont over heat it.
If your just using youtube shopping internet browsing then laptop will stay very cool and quite but for gaming the fan will kick and gets sometime hot.
Basic? Understatement. Laptop glows red and power brick goes into meltdown after 5 minutes of normal usage. The noise is enough to wake the dead, avoid.
If the cooling isn’t horrible on the I7 this might actually be perfect for me.
