  • Gamers invest in expensive gear and equipment they need to transport when traveling, either to a conference or to a friend’s house. The goal was to design sleeves and a pouch that aligned with the original OMEN bag design language and offered the protection and optimal functionality gamers require.

  • To best understand gamers’ needs, the design team met with experts in the field. Top-tier gamers were consulted for input on HP’s entire gaming product line. The sleeves were designed around top concerns and needs of actual gamers. Through dedicated research, and inspiration from around the world, the designers pieced together meaningful and functional design.

  • The HP OMEN Transceptor sleeves and pouch are protective gear apart of a larger gaming ecosystem designed by HP. The sleek and dynamic design of the sleeves and pouch bring a level of edge and sophistication to gamers on their own or as a collection. The HP OMEN products are cool, gamer-specific, ergonomic, and match together in style and performance. The products offer unmatched performance and fashionable design encouraging consumers to continue buy within the ecosystem. The comprehensive design language and rigorous testing ensures brand loyalty, which only grows market share as HP continues to expand the OMEN line.

  • The HP OMEN Transceptor sleeves protect from the outside in and designed to last. The exterior materials are water resistant to protect expensive gaming equipment from spills or rain. The exterior also includes quick access pockets. The pocket zipper is stylistically over-sized, that will withstand wear-and-tear over time. The interior includes the padded bumper along the perimeter of the sleeve is the first of its kind, designed to protect from drops and bumps. The lining also includes ultra-soft faux fur lining to protect against scratches, and the additional padding in the lining offers additional cushion and protection when thrown into a bag or carried on its own. The pouch is made from the same water-resistant material. It is compact but offers space and organization for mice, cords, chargers and additional gaming accessories. Like the sleeves, the pouch includes the same angled exterior pocket for additional storage.
