Giveaway: Win an HP Omen, the gaming PC powering the Fortnite Pro-AM tournament

This year’s E3 is finally upon us, and although the expo itself officially kicks off on Tuesday, June 12, companies like Microsoft and Bethesda are already teasing gamers with pre-event press conferences. We’ve just had a peek at an all-new Halo title and Gears of War 5, as well as a more in-depth look at the massive Fallout 76, with much more to come once the main event begins.

Big events like E3 are always a great opportunity to score some deals on gear and games. We’ll do you one better: Not only are our friends at HP having a massive 20-percent-off sale on most of their Omen gaming line, they’re giving one lucky Digital Trends winner a brand-new Omen Desktop PC 880 – 125 SE. While we love consoles, the venerable desktop PC is still the king when it comes to getting bleeding-edge power and performance for playing modern games. Still need convincing? HP’s also tossing in this sweet monitor.

This beefy gaming desktop bundle and the rest of the Omen line are exclusively powering the Fortnite Pro-AM tournament at E3 this year. The Fortnite Pro-AM pairs up celebrities such as Joel Mchale and Jon Heder with Fortnite legends for an epic showdown that kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET on June 12. That’s right, enter to win and next year YOU could be off the sidelines and in a head-to-head Fortnite battle with Napoleon Dynamite. Whether you’re playing Napoleon, Pedro, or Davey, that 8 year-old down the street, upgrading your setup to handle AAA titles or the battle-royale-gorilla Fortnite is a must if you want to compete for some serious street cred.

There’s a reason Omen’s the exclusive hardware of the Fortnite Pro-AM tournament. When it comes to specs, HP’s Omen line delivers: Inside the 880-125 SE’s Deadpool-esque red-and-black chassis (the thing even looks like a beast) sits cutting-edge hardware. The Intel Core i7-8700 CPU boasts six cores with a standard clock speed of 3.2 GHz, but it’s unlocked for overclocking right out of the box — not that you’ll need it. A huge 2 TB hard drive provides plenty of storage (and a nice speed boost at 7,200 RPM) while 16GB of RAM, upgradeable to 32GB, delivers more than enough juice for blasting through the latest games. Or just looking cool in front of Davey.

Enter below by June 26 to try and score this bundle. If you’ve broken a mirror recently, found yourself near a herd of black cats, or just plain want-it-now, HP is running their 20-percent-off promotion on most of the Omen line from now until the end of the month. Just enter code PARTYROYALE at checkout to unlock the deal. Also, be sure to check out our ongoing E3 coverage for all of the latest trailers, reveals, and other news from the gaming industry’s biggest annual event.

samsung galaxy s10 giveaway and speck cases

The new Samsung Galaxy S10 just launched last week, and despite the hype surrounding the launch, we knew very little about it until getting our hands on it. Though Samsung’s previous flagships – the excellent Galaxy S9 and Note 9 – were great devices, the Galaxy S10 blows them out of the water in terms of features. So as a treat for our loyal readers, we're giving one lucky winner the opportunity to grab a brand new Samsung Galaxy S10 smartphone (a $900 value) along with a bundle of four Speck phone cases. Read on, or scroll to the bottom, to find out how you can enter.

There are a ton of different Android phone makers on the market right now, including Nokia, LG, andHuawei, and it seems like there are more and more brands throwing their hats into the ring each year. Yet Samsung is still remains king of the smartphone hill, commanding the lion’s share of the Android market (with Android itself also being the OS of choice for the majority of smartphone users today).

Enter to win the stunning HP Spectre Folio 2-in-1 leather laptop
hp spectre folio review xxl

There are a lot of laptops you can buy, but not very many are quite as luxurious as the HP Spectre Folio 2-in-1. Unlike most portable computers, the Spectre Folio adds genuine leather into its aesthetic. Upon first look, you may mistake it for nice notebook wrapped in leather, but upon closer inspection, you'll see that the leather is actually built-in as the Folio's chassis. Despite looking like a portfolio, this HP laptop is still a legit 2-in-1. We were so impressed by the look and feel of it that we decided to give it an 8 out 10 in our review, so we're pretty stoked to be giving one away.

With an 8th generation Intel Core i7 processor, 8 GB of memory, and 256 GB of SSD storage, the HP Spectre Folio is more than just pretty, it's also rather powerful. The 13-inch Full HD display, paired with tablet capabilities, make it an excellent laptop for everyything but larger scale design work. Unlike most 2-in-1 laptops, however, the Folio folds a little bit differently. If you take a look at the new HP Spectre x360, you'll notice that the screen folds over the back. This ends up leaving the keyboard exposed underneath. The Folio actually flips inward to cover the keyboard, allowing that luxurious leather to keep protecting the bottom of the laptop.
