The HP Omen 16 is very good for engineering and design, while the Dell Latitude 5330 is only fair.
The HP Omen 16 stands out for engineering and design use due to its superior Intel i7 processor and powerful Nvidia RTX 4060 graphics, which are better suited for demanding tasks compared to the Dell Latitude 5330's Intel i5 processor and integrated graphics. While the Dell Latitude 5330 offers greater portability with a lighter design, the HP Omen 16 excels with its larger, higher quality screen and superior overall performance, making it more appropriate for intensive engineering and design applications.

The HP Omen 16 has a better screen than the Dell Latitude 5330 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, content creation, and software development.
For general use, the Dell Latitude 5330's screen may lack the resolution and brightness that makes the viewing experience pleasant, similarly affecting the HP Omen 16, though to a lesser degree.

The poor gaming and 3D experience on both is due to lower refresh rates which are crucial for smooth visuals, with the possible added disadvantage for the Dell Latitude 5330 if its resolution and panel type are not up to par for this demanding use case.

Christian Hintze | October 2021
"The Omen 16 has proven to be a fairly good mid-range gaming laptop with all-around improvements compared to the Omen 15. The high overall performance level across all use cases, the long battery life, and the good FHD display constitute the main advantages of this HP laptop. The main drawbacks are the faulty touchpad (one-off?) and the high latencies that can be observed even after just opening the browser. Furthermore, the useless, preinstalled 30-day trial versions of various software also fall under the category "unnecessary"."
