Windows Central review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Why purchase the HP OmniBook X Flip 14 laptop?

This configuration of the HP OmniBook X Flip 14 on sale is built with an Intel Core Ultra 5 226V CPU, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD, and an NPU rated at 40 TOPS. With these specs in place, this laptop is more than capable of blasting through digital paperwork using Office apps or running local AI-related programs like Cocreator.

While the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V CPU has lower processing for handling heavy workloads compared to HP OmniBook X Flip 14s with AMD Ryzen 7 350 CPUs, it makes up for it with excellent power management and cooling systems.

With this, the HP OmniBook x Flip 14's battery life will last longer, at around 22.5 hours, and safeguard your laptop's inner workings from overheating.

Other notable features of this Copilot+ laptop 14 include a 2K FHD+ Touchscreen with 1920x1200 resolution and a 60Hz refresh rate to render images in high definition, compatibility with stylus pens (not included) for easier notetaking and digital art creation, a tough build, and a built-in HP 5MP IR Camera with an HDR Switch.

In short, the HP OmniBook X Flip 14, which now has its $949.99 MSRP chopped down to $649.99 at Best Buy, is a wonderful laptop that'd we recommend any day for hardworking desk-jockies and casual internal browsers alike.

Alternative discounted configuration

If you need more processing power, an alternative configuration of the HP OmniBook X Flip 14 with more premium-grade specs like an AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 processor, 24GB of RAM, and a 2TB SSD is also on sale for $1,199.00 at Best Buy (was $1,789.00) for a limited time.

FAQ

How long will Best Buy's Memorial Day Sale last?

Best Buy's Memorial Day Sale will last until May 25, 2026, but there is a chance some discounts may persist beyond the event, so it's best to keep an eye out after the event is over.

Can I upgrade its RAM and SSD?

You can upgrade the HP OmniBook X Flip 14's storage by replacing its default SSD and inserting a new one via its M.2 SSD slot up to a max size of 2TB. However, you can remove the RAM as it's soldered into the motherboard, so you will need to choose how much RAM this computer will have during checkout.

Can it play games?

The HP OmniBook X Flip 14 was never designed to run mid-high PC gamings, but its integrated Intel Arc 130V is capable of running low-end, older PC games like Minecraft.
