At CES 2026, HP announced that OMEN and HyperX will combine to become a single gaming brand, HyperX.
HyperX will now deliver the end-to-end gaming experience, encompassing gaming PCs, displays, peripherals, and software.
“Gamers deserve a seamless experience that matches their passion, from the systems that power their worlds to the gear that connects them,” said Josephine Tan, Senior Vice President and Division President of Personal Systems Gaming Solutions at HP Inc. “As we bring OMEN and HyperX together, we’re continuing to push the boundaries of gaming innovation, delivering performance, personalisation, and experiences that help every player reach their full potential.”
The new HyperX OMEN MAX 16 is HyperX’s latest gaming laptop, being announced this week at CES 2026. It delivers up to 300W of Total Platform Power and is powered by Intel Core Ultra 200HX series and AMD Ryzen AI processors.
The powerful, immersive gaming is provided by GPUs up to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 5090 Laptop GPU and the cooling is provided by the redesigned OMEN Tempest Cooling Pro system, which features a third fan and fan cleaner technology to improve cooling efficiency.
The display is an impressive 16-inch OLED 240Hz WQXGA, promising a smooth, vibrant gaming experience.
The innovative HyperX OMEN OLED 34 delivers a new level of “clarity, speed and colour accuracy” thanks to the next-generation V-stripe QD-OLED panel technology.
This new technology provides a 21:9 WQHD resolution, a 360Hz refresh rate, and a 0.03ms response time, with less text fringing and overall better picture quality. The monitor provides HyperProLuma professional-grade colour precision along with 100W USB-C PD and a KVM switch for multitasking.
Arriving this year, local pricing and availability are unknown at this stage.
