The HP OmniBook X Flip is now available for just EUR 601 at Best Buy, a 47% discount from its EUR 1,144 list price. This 16-inch 2-in-1 pairs an OLED display with capable everyday performance, making it a standout option for shoppers looking to save on a laptop in 2026.
At EUR 601, the OmniBook X Flip lands in the same price bracket as the MacBook Neo, which also starts at EUR 601. For that price, however, the HP offers more hardware overall, starting with its display and doubling the memory found in Apple’s entry-level machine.
Display and Build
The headline feature is the 16-inch OLED display, running at a 1920×1200 resolution. It’s a touchscreen panel, and true to the laptop’s name, it flips a full 180 degrees to convert into a tablet. The chassis feels solid, so rotating the screen doesn’t introduce any flex or wobble. Weighing just 4 pounds, the machine stays portable despite its larger screen size.
Performance and Specs
Powering the laptop is a Ryzen AI 5 340 processor, a Gorgon Point chip that refreshes the Strix Point architecture. It includes four Zen 5 cores, two of which are Zen 5c, along with four RDNA 3.5 compute units. There is no dedicated graphics card, so the integrated Radeon 840M handles graphics duties, which helps extend the 76Wh battery life. The chip manages daily tasks smoothly and can handle very light 1080p gaming.
The configuration includes 16GB of LPDDR5X memory, double the amount in the MacBook Neo, plus a 512GB SSD. A 65W GaN charger is included in the box. Connectivity is generous for the class, with two Thunderbolt ports (USB-C at 40 Gbps), two USB-A ports at 10 Gbps, one HDMI 2.1, and a 3.5mm audio jack. Wireless support covers Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0.
Who It’s For
This is a budget laptop built for regular, everyday use such as web browsing and media consumption, and it performs well in those roles, particularly thanks to the OLED panel. It isn’t positioned as a heavy workstation or gaming rig, but it delivers strong value for typical computing needs. At EUR 601 on Best Buy, it’s a competitive pick in its price range.
