The AI tools are underwhelming, but the HP OmniBook Ultra Flip is a stunning little laptop for business executives.

PC makers are desperate to convince us we need a so-called AI PC. The HP OmniBook Ultra Flip is without doubt one of those, but it’s great despite the AI features, not because of them.

Well, the design is stunning. The all-metal casing is cast in a midnight blue that looks deadly serious, and it’s wonderfully compact. At first you’ll fret that there’s only USB-C connection on the entire device, where the charger would sit, but there are two more hidden on the rear corners, which have been neatly cut in at 45 degrees.

Well spaced with a satisfying degree of travel under each key, it’s one of those keyboards where you’re instantly up to full typing speed the moment you lay your fingers on it. Furthermore, the large slab of a touchpad beneath it is immaculately responsive. It’s a laptop I’d happily pack for a business trip.

Overall, a tremendous amount of thought and care has gone into the design of the HP OmniBook Ultra Flip, elevating it above the run-of-the-mill laptop.HP hasn’t neglected the internals in this OmniBook, either.
