Versatile Enough for Tablet Use with a Flippable Display... HP OmniBook X Flip 14 [IT Review]

The HP OmniBook X Flip 14 is a laptop that can also function as a tablet. Its 14-inch touch display folds all the way back, allowing it to be used in tablet mode. You can also prop it up in a tent shape, which makes watching videos more convenient. The left side features USB Type-A, HDMI 2.1, Thunderbolt 4, and USB 3.2 ports, while the right side includes headphone/microphone jacks and another USB Type-A port. The device measures 31.3 x 21.85 x 1.46 cm and weighs 1.39 kg.
The Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) display offers a 16:10 aspect ratio and 3K (2880x1800) high resolution, supporting up to 400 nits of brightness and a 120Hz refresh rate. Streaming Netflix titles such as 'KPop Demon Hunters' and 'Genie, Make a Wish' showcased smooth and vivid picture quality, even during dynamic scenes.
Powered by the Intel Core Ultra 7 Processor 258V and equipped with Intel Arc 140V integrated graphics, the device also features 32GB RAM, a 512GB SSD, Wi-Fi 6E, and Bluetooth 5.3. Windows 11 Home and Microsoft Copilot come pre-installed.

Benchmark tests showed that on Geekbench 6, the CPU scored 2,723 for single-core and 11,029 for multi-core performance. On Cinebench 2024, it achieved 119 points for single-core and 576 for multi-core. In the Geekbench AI Onyx section, it scored 3,192 for single precision, 1,412 for half precision, and 6,378 for quantized. The 3DMark Time Spy test resulted in a score of 4,138. Gaming performance exceeded expectations; running PUBG: Battlegrounds, the integrated graphics managed a stable 40–50 FPS.
However, due to the 3K high-resolution display, battery performance was average for a device with Lunar Lake. With the screen brightness set to 50%, web browsing and video playback lasted about 7 hours and 30 minutes. Full charging took 2 hours and 20 minutes. This laptop is suitable not only for work but also for watching videos, and with its abundance of side ports, it is recommended for users who frequently connect peripheral devices.
