OmniBook X Flip 16 Hits Lowest Price Ever at Best Buy Before PC Costs Rise

The OmniBook X Flip 16 hitting its lowest-ever price at Best Buy underscores how quickly AI PC demand is being shaped by hardware cost swings. During Best Buy’s Black Friday in July sale running through Sunday, July 26, HP cut the OmniBook X Flip 16 to $749.99 from its listed $1,199.99. Deal trackers cited by the article say this is the lowest price ever recorded for that specific configuration. The key buying constraint is permanent: the 16GB RAM in the sale model cannot be upgraded later. That limitation stems from Intel Lunar Lake’s Memory-on-Package design, with LPDDR5x-8533 stacked on the Core Ultra 7 256V chip package. The integrated Intel Arc 140V GPU shares the unified pool and is specified as 8GB, while a higher-step Core Ultra 7 258V configuration raises memory to 32GB for graphics performance.
