This assessment is based on historical review data and common industry practices for the HP OMEN Shadow Elf III Plus gaming laptop, which was released in 2017 and is now discontinued. It's important to note that this model was involved in a public incident regarding discrepancies between advertised and actual heat pipe count, for which HP offered compensation[8](@ref). Hardware configurations varied by specific model. The security classification is largely based on generic practices and the features of the Windows operating system. For precise security assessment, refer to official documentation.
