Apple MacBook Air 13" M5 vs HP OmniBook Ultra 14 (2025)

What Reviewers Agree On

• Best fanless ultraportable on the market — nothing else competes at this performance level
• ~15% faster CPU and ~20% faster GPU over M4 is a meaningful improvement for day-to-day use
• 512GB base storage is long overdue and welcome at this price point
• Wi-Fi 7 + Bluetooth 6 are real-world upgrades for compatible routers
• Battery life remains outstanding at up to 18 hours — all-day without worry

Deal Breakers

• $100 more expensive than M4 Air at launch ($1,099 vs $999)
• Thunderbolt 4 only — no Thunderbolt 5 like MacBook Pro
