This Origin gaming laptop squeezes a lot out of its modest hardware. Our review:
, and it doesn't perform significantly better than them. But the differences are minimal and for a 1080p laptop with an AMD Radeon RX 6650M XT, the EVO16-S offers a sweet spot if your gaming habits don't require a higher resolution and refresh rate.
Although the 6650M XT and the Ryzen 7 6800H keep the EVO16-S fed when it comes to gaming performance, its 1080p 144Hz screen doesn't have a tremendous appetite. If this laptop were equipped with a 1440p panel or touted a 165Hz or 240Hz refresh rate, the graphs below would tell a different story. The EVO16-S isn't strapped with anything absurd or overkill; it's a gaming laptop for someone that isn't quite sure what they want.
My EVO16-S review unit costs around $1,920. Instead of the basic 16GB of RAM, mine has 32GB, and it also has a 1TB SSD. It's a steep price for an AMD-based laptop that mirrors the other options out there with Intel's Core i7 12700H and Nvidia's RTX 3060. If you cut the RAM and SSD in half, you can get the price down to around $1,500. For me, that's the only price that this laptop makes sense as an alternative—that is, if you're not desperate for a better screen.
I don't see the need for anything over 1080p and 144Hz on a mid-size laptop unless you specifically play the sorts of games that demand it. I play an embarrassing amount ofwith a 4K 144Hz monitor on my desktop setup. The swap back to 1080p at the same refresh rate on the EVO16-S wasn't as big of a downgrade as I expected. Not only did the game run fine on medium and high settings, but the smaller screen size eased the transition.
