HP just unloaded a last minute Black Friday deal on one of its most powerful gaming laptops. The OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 gaming laptop has been lowered to just $1,699.99 after a $1,300 off instant discount and an additional $100 off coupon code “GOBBLE100“. This is indisputably the least expensive RTX 5080 equipped laptop for Black Friday. The RTX 5080 is an absolute monster of a mobile GPU that surpasses the previous generation’s top performer, the RTX 4090.
HP states on the page that this “Flash deal” ends tonight at midnight PT.
OMEN MAX 16 RTX 5080 Gaming Laptop for $1,699.99
New for 2025, the OMEN MAX 16 is an upgrade to the OMEN 16 both in terms of build quality and cooling potential. Unlike the OMEN 16, the OMEN MAX 16 is almost entirely constructed of aluminum, including both the top lid and chassis. The exception is the palm rest, which is still plastic so that it doesn’t get too toasty for your hands. The OMEN MAX 16 also features a new OMEN Tempest Cooling Pro design that combines vapor chamber cooling, redesigned fan configuration, and an improved thermal interface material to maximize heat transfer. Not only does this keep the OMEN MAX 16 cooler during gaming marathons, it also allows for the current-generation graphics cards to perform optimally without throttling.
This particular configuration features a 16″ 2560×1600 display, AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 CPU, GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU, 32GB of RAM, and a 1TB SSD. Both the memory and storage can be user-upgraded. The AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 375 is a 12-core, 24-thread Zen5 CPU with a 5.1GHz max boost clock. It’s a great chip for gaming, although gamers can largely ignore the dedicated NPUs that are used to boost AI productivity (hence the Ryzen “AI” name).
The GeForce RTX 5080 mobile GPU is better than the RTX 4090 mobile
The OMEN MAX 16 can accommodate an RTX 5080 mobile GPU without throttling it. The RTX 5080 is roughly 15%-20% more powerful than the RTX 4080 GPU that it replaces. In fact, it’s slightly more powerful than the RTX 4090, which was the previous generation’s flagship card. It will run even the newest demanding games like Ghost of Yotei, Battlefield 6, and Borderlands 4 at frame rates of 60fps or higher on the 1600p display. You could even enable ray tracing and still get playable frames, something that was unheard of in laptops just a few years ago.
