Performance scores
HP OmniBook Ultra 14 (2026)
The OmniBook Ultra 14 (2026) is the biggest refresh of the Ultra line: a Core Ultra 5 338H with an Arc B370 and 64GB of RAM at $1,400 — a memory-and-graphics flagship whose newest GPU nobody has scored yet.
Where it holds up
Memory at 64GB is the stated strength — double the ultrabook-class median of 32, top-tier — and the platform follows: overall performance at 74.57 beats the class median by 79%, light office work at 91.91 is top-tier, reliability at 83 adds a 63% cushion, and portability at 74.9 sits in the high band. The Arc B370 is real dedicated silicon in an ultrabook body — the hardware is there even where the tables are not.
Where it falls short
Gaming reads zero — no matched scoring entry exists for the Arc B370 yet, so the gaming column is a coverage gap rather than a measured zero. The honest footnote for the weakness list is modeling at 22, low-band, with value at 27.35 close behind — a thin reading for a $1,400 sheet. Engineering CAD at 46 and photo design at 36 hold mid-tier. No measured game verdicts appear on this sheet.
Price and depreciation
At $1,400 the 2026 ledger is empty — no depreciation has accumulated yet, and first-year exposure sits with the buyer.
Alternatives to consider
The 2024 OmniBook Ultra 14 in this batch costs $316 less with the same top-tier office score and reliability tier, minus the memory. If measured gaming matters, the OmniBook 7 16's RTX 4050 sheet posts 60 on that axis with top-tier modeling scores for $168 less.
Bottom line
Fairly priced for the class. A 64GB flagship with high-band performance and top-tier office work — bought against an unscored GPU, a low-band modeling axis and the thinnest value reading in the Ultra line.
