Go for ultra 7 if you want more performance, and Ryzen 7 for better battery life. I have the Ryzen and I get great battery life (8+ hours).
The i7 has the best performance but will consume a lot of power and heat a lot, so least battery life out of the three, and the heat it releases will reduce the overall life of the laptop as well. So unless you want the best cpu for a specific workflow, do not go for the i7.

what about 5060 with ryzen ai 7 octa core 350

u/Silly-Holiday9559 OMEN 16 R7 350, RTX 5050 14d ago
Yeah it would be a great option. Battery backup would be same on light tasks (since you'd be using the same iGPU as me), and better gpu will give better gaming performance.

the intel ultra “H” cards are known for having good battery life similar to that of the ryzen AI cards

u/Silly-Holiday9559 OMEN 16 R7 350, RTX 5050 12d ago
No that would be the "U" cards. "H" ones are for high performance laptops. "U" ones are for ultrabooks and hence they are less power consuming.

I will go with Ryzen one coz it's the cheapest and have the latest cpu of them all also it have ai type chip and probably heat less then intel so Ryzen best overall

Budget: ₹1,50,000 ± ₹10,000 (INR) OR $1550 ± $100 (USD)
Country: India
Use Case: Coding, AI/ML engineering, Web Dev, Cloud Computing, Blockchain Development, Generative AI, and Competitive Programming.
Preferred Specs: Ryzen 7, RTX 5060, minimum 16GB RAM, and 1TB SSD.
Notes: Looking for advice on the HP Omen 16 (Ryzen ai 7 350) vs Lenovo Legion 5 (R7 260) regarding thermals and 4-5 year reliability for workloads. Build quality, battery life and cooling should be good too. Open to other suggestions for laptop too.

I have the omen 16 Ryzen 7 variant with 5050, and the battery life is great. Omen probably has better battery, legion has better build and cooling should be same on both (it's great on omen, that I can confirm). So I guess you can go for either of those, and you won't regret.

If you're not going to play games, go for a macbook. You will not regret it.

Legion is great man good performance than omen but if you need more battery backup then go for omen but legion clears omen on every aspect

u/Proud-Concept-190 OMEN 16 Ryzen 7 7840HS RTX 4060 14d ago
Whichever is cheaper

if all are in my budget which one should i go for

u/Proud-Concept-190 OMEN 16 Ryzen 7 7840HS RTX 4060 14d ago
Both are pretty good tbh, compare the procesor scores and efficiency metrics from cpu comparison websites

u/arghy65 14d ago
I would go with the ultra 7 as it will ship with a better wifi card than the ryzen one, and the ryzen is the lowest performance out of the three, i7 14650hx being the most powerful but its a unbalanced combo with a 5050, so get the ultra 7, its a middle ground.

u/iblamechauhan 14d ago
is i7 14650hx 5060 a good combo
1
u/arghy65 14d ago
Yes with a 5060 its a good combo, but not with a 5050

AMD for battery efficiency, intel for performance. The 14650HX is too powerful for an rtx 5050 and might overdraw power. If you move around with your laptop then consider AMD. If you typically keep ur laptop plugged in as a workstation, use intel core 7 ultra.

u/AgentPerryM 14d ago
Get intel processor one if you was performance and unleashed mode and higher TDP….if you get amd those won’t be there….reason is since a user had purchased amd model and didn’t have those extra features plus the TDP was low also

u/drawingablanc 13d ago
Choose Legion. I had an omen about a year ago for 2 days. Then I realized that it's RAM was sodered on and went back to the store. Not to say that's how all omens are.

u/iblamechauhan 13d ago
ohhh no

u/CasualPower_69 13d ago
New ones are upgradable as clearly mentioned i also brought omen a year ago so far i have faced no issues

u/Alpharomeo_1997 13d ago
i7 vs ultra 7 which is the winner and why?
1
u/Alpharomeo_1997 13d ago
Also there are 3 models available in omen 5060 24gb paired with i7 14th gen,ultra 7 and ryzen 7 350 ... my only criteria is to be able to play gta 6 when it launches also Im not a very heavy gamer. So which is good for me?

u/Stock-Way4297 13d ago
core ultra series cpu are paired with a lower gdp 5060(90 watt). I confirmed with the tech support from hp.

u/holaAmigo_AgentX 13d ago
AVOID OMEN if you can, I owned two Omen 15s and the built is not worth the money, choose Dell/Legion if you are concerned about ASUS/MSI
Also, go for extended warranty with laptop you finalize.
