New Delhi: PC and printer major HP Inc on Friday brought world's first dual-screen gaming laptop "OMEN X 2S" to India for a starting price of 2,09,990.

HP has added an additional second screen to the "OMEN X 2S" in the form of a six-inch (1080p) touchscreen in between the main screen and keypad that lets players message friends on WhatsApp, browse music streaming services, watch YouTube or even serve as a hub for "OMEN Command Center" software.

The "OMEN X 2S" has a real-time, screen mirroring feature that can cut and magnify parts of the main screen — including copying the map portion of a racing game — to the second screen, ensuring that vision is centered and head movement more vertical than horizontal, the company said in a statement.

"At HP, we share our users' passion and love for the game — be it beginners, enthusiasts or professionals. We have engineered the best experiences based on user insights to enable a holistic and exciting gaming ecosystem for the modern gamers in India," said Sumeer Chandra, Managing Director, HP Inc. India.

The new Intel Wi-Fi 6 designed to support gigabit speeds up the wireless game with up to 3X faster file transfer speeds than Wi-Fi 5.

We are pushing the paradigms of gaming innovations through disruptive new devices like OMEN X 2S, that provide unmatched experiences to the gamers and help them reach the next level," said Vickram Bedi, Senior Director, Personal Systems, HP Inc. India.
