Our Verdict

HP OMEN Transcend 14 (2024)

Dell Alienware m16 R2 (2024)

The HP OMEN Transcend 14 (2024) and the Dell Alienware m16 R2 (2024) are both gaming laptops available with the same Intel Meteor Lake CPUs and NVIDIA discrete GPUs. The HP is more compact, making it a better option for on-the-go use, while the Dell has more processing power to deliver a smoother gaming experience, as its GPUs run at a higher wattage. The Dell's display is also better for gaming, as it has a higher refresh rate of 240Hz and supports G-SYNC. The HP's OLED display gets brighter, though, and it can produce deeper blacks for a better dark room viewing experience.
