One of the best laptops for work travel I've tested is not a Lenovo or MacBook (and $200 off)


The latest HP OmniBook X is a snappy Copilot+ PC with a feature set that remote workers will appreciate. It's on sale at Best Buy during Prime Day.

The Snapdragon X Elite's strong performance is evident in ways consumers will care about: apps open and close quickly, webpages spring to life instantly, and the device has no problem switching between different tasks without missing a beat. Further supporting that fact is HP's AI-powered Poly Camera Pro software, which comes loaded on the OmniBook with a wide range of templates and quality-of-life settings for the webcam, including spotlighting, subtle appearance touchups, background blurring, and a digital business card overlay feature that displays your name and contact information in a variety of designs. Yes, the CPU is fast and efficient, and the NPU on these processors runs AI-related tasks better than anything else on the market, but the chips are held back by Windows' functionality (at least for now), and this tension between the two will be at the root cause of a lot of issues until the growing pains subside.
