Tried it. Messed around with it for a few projects at home, looked at it as a Key Mgmt solution. Seems okay, but nothing that I couldn't do with some flavor of Linux, or FreeBSD. This was ~4 years ago? Maybe there have been changes
2. What are the pros & cons of using Open BSD?
It's secure. That's about it, mostly. While I'm sure it's more secure at a microcode level, I'm not sure that, in a practical sense, it's more secure than a hardened Linux install.
It wasn't hard to get it running, but not easy out of the box like Linux.
3. What laptop would run OpenBSD best? (I am looking at the Razer Balde)
I would not put it on a laptop; I'd consider QubesOS before OpenBSD, as O-BSD is a server OS and it would be a pain to make laptop drivers work. Like, I haven't messed with ndiswrapper and wifi for like a decade, and have no intentions of playing those sorts of games again.
