HP OmniBook X Flip 16, the large format convertible with AI superpowers

From a technical point of view, the integration of the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor, belonging to the recent Lunar Lake family, projects the device towards the new frontiers of local artificial intelligence thanks to a 47 TOPS NPU. In standard productivity contexts and with mains power, the system demonstrates constant fluidity, effectively supported by the 32 GB of integrated RAM which facilitate multitasking. Although the Intel architecture shows room for optimization in battery-powered sessions, where the system tends to favor thermal containment over pure boost, the overall experience remains solid for office-oriented use and advanced navigation. The heat management and the silence of the fans are particularly accurate, guaranteeing remarkable acoustic comfort even under load.

Interaction with the machine is entrusted to a keyboard with a “latex-free” design, which reduces the space between the keys offering dry feedback and limited travel, a solution that is particularly suitable for those who prefer fast typing.
