If you prioritize performance for activities like gaming or intensive engineering tasks and don't mind a heavier laptop with a larger screen, the HP Omen 15 is suitable due to its powerful graphics card. However, if you prefer a more portable and lightweight laptop with longer battery life for general use or everyday tasks, and still want a device that can handle some light creative work, the Lenovo Yoga 6 could be a better choice, especially since it also has a touchscreen and a slightly higher resolution display. The Lenovo tends to be less expensive, but its integrated graphics are less powerful than the HP's dedicated GPU. Give Feedback

The HP Omen 15 is good for gaming and AI, while the Lenovo Yoga 6 is only fair.
The HP Omen 15 provides a superior gaming and 3D experience with its dedicated Nvidia RTX 3070 graphics card and a higher screen refresh rate of 144Hz, offering smoother visuals and gameplay. In contrast, the Lenovo Yoga 6 uses integrated AMD graphics and has a lower refresh rate of 60Hz, which can be less ideal for such demanding applications.

The HP Omen 15 has a better screen than the Lenovo Yoga 6 for general use, gaming and AI, engineering and design, and content creation.
The HP Omen 15 offers a vibrant display with good resolution and brightness, which works well for everyday tasks and detailed engineering work, but due to a lower refresh rate, it isn't ideal for gaming or 3D applications where smoother motion is crucial. The Lenovo Yoga 6, while it has an adequate resolution and acceptable brightness for general tasks, its strong suit is accurate color representation for engineering and design, yet similar to the Omen, it falls short for gaming and 3D work because of its less optimal refresh rate. Given the importance of high refresh rates for 3D work and gaming, neither laptop is optimized for these activities, but both can handle general use and detailed color work with competence.

How the HP Omen 15 and the Lenovo Yoga 6 compare to other laptops
"We consider around 1,260 Euros (~$1530) for a Ryzen 7 4800H, a GeForce RTX 2060, a 512 GB SSD and 16 GB dual-channel RAM to be a good offer that appeals to price-conscious gamers. Very high details are rarely a problem in the native resolution of 1,920 x 1,080. Buyers will also be spoiled with a top-notch battery life that even beats most other notebook classes. If HP now improves the speed of the WLAN module, the stability of the case and the repeatedly criticized picture quality, the competition will have to dress extra warmly."
"The AMD R7-7730U in the Lenovo Yoga 6 13 provides a suitable answer to the limited cooling capabilities of a convertible - especially in tablet mode. It draws high computing power from a comparatively limited power supply so that less heat has to be dissipated at the same time."
