Chassis, connections, screen of the HP OmniBook 5 16-ag1001sf

Rechargeable by 50% in 30 minutes, this laptop with a thin and light Glacier Silver aluminum design has an elegant and discreet appearance.

In terms of connectivity, it is well equipped with its Wi-Fi 6 ax and recent Bluetooth 5.4 wireless modules for remote connections and communications, its audio port, its HDMI video output thanks to which it can be connected to a TV or a monitor in particular, but also its 2 USB 3.2 and 2 fast USB-C, practical for connecting peripherals such as a headset, a mouse, external storage or a printer.

Under this laptop PC you can authenticate biometrically through facial recognition enabled by the infrared technology of the webcam, for example via Windows Hello.
When you are not using the webcam, it is possible to hide it behind a privacy shutter, which is useful for preserving privacy.

Those who are used to using their computer in a dimly lit environment will be delighted with the backlighting of the keyboard in these conditions since you just need to activate this feature to better distinguish its keys.

In a 16:10 format displaying more vertical elements than the classic 16:9 display, the Full HD screen has significant vertical and horizontal viewing angles thanks to its IPS technology.
Unsurprisingly, however, this is not high-end and we must therefore be content with average colorimetry, lower than that provided by high-end IPS panels.
In any case, thanks to its anti-reflective coating, the screen provides better visibility in a bright environment (e.g. outdoors) than a shiny panel.

Performance, autonomy of the HP OmniBook 5 16-ag1001sf

The HP OmniBook 5 16-ag1001sf is an elegant aluminum laptop PC that performs well in everyday use, oriented towards Artificial Intelligence and equipped with recent components.

As it is able to last around 8 hours on battery in light use, it will interest some looking for a student laptop AI since its thinness and controlled weight make it as easy to transport as an Ultrabook.

Especially since it delivers very good performance in everyday use such as Internet browsing, office use, watching photos and HD videos including streaming but also playing light games.

In fact, it is powered by an AMD Ryzen AI 5 340 processor which houses 6 cores as well as the Radeon 840M graphics part, supported by 16 GB of RAM.

The Ryzen AI 5 340 has the particularity of adopting the latest generation architecture Krackan Point offering skills for Artificial Intelligence.
Its potential is revealed in areas exploiting multi-core and AI that are not too demanding in CPU resources, such as photo retouching or video content editing.

Thanks to its great speed, the silent, energy-efficient SSD contributes to good overall responsiveness and fluidity, including during processing, to start/stop, launch software or even access online game cards, tasks that are carried out quickly.

HP offers here a 512 GB SSD, a standard solution that is also found in (much) more expensive models.
However, if you need additional space, you can connect an external storage medium. To maximize transfer speed, we will favor the connection of a USB 3.2 (type-C) Gen2 device or, failing that, USB 3.0, rather than USB 2.0.

In the event of heavy loads (e.g. treatments), finally expect this AI-oriented laptop to heat up and make itself heard, in which case we can additionally use a ventilated support to contain its temperatures (remember to check the dimensions carefully!).
