HP has also fine-tuned its gaming ecosystem by enhancing compatibility with HyperX peripherals. Thanks to its Ultra Low Latency Gen 3 tech, the laptop can connect up to three HyperX devices at once, making it perfect for those deep in the HP gaming universe.
The Omen Max 16 features a metal chassis, complete with an optional front RGB light bar for extra flair. Gamers can also opt for a HyperX-inspired lattice-less per-key RGB keyboard, letting you light up every keypress. HP also introduces Omen Cryo Compound, a hybrid thermal material blending liquid metal and metal grease for enhanced heat dissipation and better thermal management.
Available in two finishes—Ceramic White and Shadow Black—the Omen Max 16 starts at $1,699 (around ₹1,45,600).
HP has also rolled out Omen AI, its first AI-powered game-learning app, currently in Beta. The app dynamically adjusts settings for optimised performance, offering a personalised, one-click setup for your rig. Initially launching with support for Counter-Strike 2, HP says Omen AI will expand to more games in the future, helping you squeeze the most out of your hardware and game settings.
On the hardware front, HP also revealed the Omen 32x Smart Gaming Monitor. Packing a 4K UHD display with a 144Hz refresh rate, it’s also touted as the first Omen monitor to come with Google TV support. The Omen 32x Smart Gaming Monitor starts at $749 (approx. ₹64,200).
