Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5 vs HP Omen 17

As a comparison, my Samsung phone with one tiny speaker is much, much louder and clearer than this Chromebook. Makes no sense - the two speaker grills on the front could easily support larger, louder, better quality speakers. What would it cost them, a dollar? Two? Lenovo, come on now, Overall I really like this Chromebook. It serves most of my needs, is quick, simple to use, light, good for scrolling the internet, good for watching movies (but as mentioned, the volume is low, so it would be a challenge to play for a group in a room), the battery is pretty good - never ran out of battery

While the Razer was a definite underperformer, I also would have expected the Omen to finish a little further ahead of the MSI and its older (and lower-clocked) 8th Generation Core i7 chip. The Acer and Digital Storm did better with the same CPU as the Omen.
