Our Verdict
HP OMEN Transcend 14 (2024)
ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2024)
The ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2024) and the HP OMEN Transcend 14 (2024) are direct competitors in the high-end 14-inch gaming laptop market. They trade blows when it comes to the overall user experience; the G14's display has better reflection handling and G-SYNC support, while the OMEN has lower thermals and fan noise.
