The HP Omen X 2S 15 arrived in 2019 as one of the more unusual gaming laptops HP has shipped: a 15.6-inch RTX machine with a second 6-inch display built into the deck above the keyboard, used for stream overlays, macros, and system stats while you game. It was built for players and streamers who wanted real Turing-generation graphics power without hauling a desktop replacement, and it still holds value today because the RTX 2070 and RTX 2080 inside it handle current games at 1080p without much compromise. Pick your configuration and condition above for an instant cash offer, or see how the process works before you commit. If you have other gear to clear out at the same time, you can also sell your gaming laptop here.

Confirm you have the Omen X 2S 15

The fastest way to check is inside Windows. Go to Settings → System → About to see the device name, or press Windows key + R and run dxdiag to confirm the exact processor and graphics card. The model and serial number are also printed on a sticker on the underside of the chassis, near the vents.

RTX 2070 configuration

  • Intel Core i7 9th Gen processor
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 graphics
  • Same chassis and secondary display as the 2080 build

RTX 2080 configuration

  • Intel Core i7 9th Gen processor
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 graphics
  • The higher-value configuration of the two

Prefer a visual check? Look for the horizontal secondary display sitting above the keyboard deck. That strip is unique to the 2S line. Also check the lid and hinge for copper-toned accents against a dark shadow-black chassis, a finish HP used specifically on this model.

Core hardware configurations

Processor

  • Intel Core i7, 9th Gen
  • Six-core design suited to gaming and light content work

Graphics

  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 or RTX 2080
  • Turing architecture with real-time ray tracing support
  • The RTX 2080 build moves resale value the most

Memory

  • DDR4 memory across two SO-DIMM slots
  • User-upgradable if you need to open the base panel

Storage

  • NVMe M.2 SSD storage
  • Dual M.2 slots on most builds, giving room to add a second drive

Display & audio

The main panel is a 15.6-inch Full HD IPS display with a 144Hz refresh rate, tuned for fast-paced competitive titles rather than color-critical work.

Above the keyboard sits the signature second screen, a 6-inch touch-enabled display used for OMEN Command Center widgets, macro shortcuts, and media controls while the main panel stays on the game.

Audio comes from a Bang & Olufsen-tuned speaker setup, a partnership HP used across the Omen line during this generation.

Ports & connectivity

The port layout is built around a gaming dock rather than an ultraportable, with enough wired options to run an external monitor and full peripheral set at once.

Wired
  • USB-A 3.1 ports
  • USB-C with Thunderbolt 3
  • HDMI output
  • Mini DisplayPort
  • RJ-45 Ethernet
  • 3.5mm headphone/mic combo jack
Wireless
  • Wi-Fi (802.11ac)
  • Bluetooth

Battery, build & more

Battery life leans toward gaming sessions near a wall outlet rather than long unplugged stretches, which is typical for a laptop running dual RTX-class graphics in a chassis this thin.

The chassis uses a shadow-black finish with copper-toned trim on the lid and hinge, a design language unique to the 2S line within the broader Omen family.

It shipped with Windows and HP OMEN Command Center preinstalled, the software layer that drives the secondary display, per-key lighting, and performance profiles.

A well-documented complaint on this model is thermal throttling under sustained load, a trade-off of packing dual RTX-generation graphics into a slim chassis. It is worth noting during your condition check but does not disqualify the laptop from resale.

Frequently asked questions

01 How do I find the model number or exact configuration?
Go to Settings → System → About in Windows to see the device name and specs, or press Windows key + R and run dxdiag to confirm your exact processor and graphics card. The full model and serial number are printed on a sticker on the underside of the laptop. To check which GPU you have without opening the case, look in OMEN Command Center or Device Manager under Display adapters, where it will list RTX 2070 or RTX 2080 directly.
02 How do I tell it apart from the standard HP Omen 15?
Look above the keyboard. The Omen X 2S 15 has a second, horizontal display strip built into the deck for widgets, macros, and media controls. The regular Omen 15 has no second screen at all, just a single keyboard deck. The naming is a good clue too: anything labeled plainly "Omen 15" without the "X 2S" is the single-screen version and will not match this configuration.
03 Can I sell it with damage, like a cracked screen or a dead battery?
Yes. Cracked displays, a weak or swollen battery, a broken secondary screen, or a unit that will not power on can still be sold, and the condition picker above adjusts the offer accordingly rather than rejecting the device outright. Before shipping, sign out of your Microsoft account and remove the laptop from it, and suspend or decrypt BitLocker if it is enabled. A locked account on a laptop that still boots will delay or block payment even if the hardware itself is fine.
04 What raises the trade-in value the most?
The RTX 2080 configuration is worth more than the RTX 2070 build, since it is the stronger GPU tier for this model. A fully functioning secondary display matters too, since it is the defining feature of this laptop and buyers expect it to work. Beyond that, a clean main panel with no dead pixels or cracks, a battery that still holds a real charge, and including the original charger all push the offer up. Extra RAM or storage added after purchase can help as well, if it is still installed.
05 How do I erase it and get paid?
Go to Settings → System → Recovery → Reset this PC and choose to remove everything, then confirm the reset. Before that, sign out of and remove the laptop from your Microsoft account under Settings → Accounts, and suspend or fully decrypt BitLocker under Settings → Privacy & Security → Device encryption if it is turned on. Once the reset finishes and the device shows a clean setup screen, it is ready to ship. Shipping is free and insured, and payment goes out after testing by PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, CashApp, or check.
