Good deal – The HP Victus 16 laptop (Core i5 / RTX 3060/144 Hz) 8 GB / 512 GB for € 803.90 (-12%)

The HP Victus 16 is a new chassis that inaugurates the American manufacturer’s 16.1-inch format. This model dedicated to gamers is also the most affordable of the manufacturer with configurations with an interesting price / performance ratio.

The Victus 16 offers a convincing chassis with well-controlled cooling. The processor and graphics card pair is balanced and allows you to enjoy the latest games in Full HD. Its touchpad would have deserved a little more care and the panel a colorimetric profile despite good responsiveness. Finally, we regret that autonomy is not better.

Highlights

• Efficient cooling.
• Responsive panel.

Weaknesses

• Color screen that lacks precision.
• Loud and inaccurate touchpad.
• Fans who won’t stop.
• Autonomy.

Alternatively

By detecting the MagicBook Pro on its own, Huawei corrected its main flaw (the keyboard) and kept its main selling point (the screen). We would have liked a slightly newer processor, however, such as an AMD Ryzen 5 5600H with Zen 3 architecture. To make a perfect copy, Huawei would have been well advised to offer better speakers and a larger capacity battery – Battery life is on the other hand. correct part. Eventually we’ll settle for a free M.2 slot instead.
