Product Information

A high-scoring, inexpensive Chromebook should not be compared directly to a high-scoring, expensive gaming laptop. All performance specifications represent the typical specifications provided by HP's component manufacturers; actual performance may vary, either higher or lower. HP is a longtime Google Chrome OS partner, cranking out Chromebooks on a regular schedule that run the gamut from surprisingly high-end to budget-oriented education models. While this Chromebook features a 720-pixel high-resolution front-facing camera, the actual quality was generally underwhelming during video chatting. If you’re dialed into the Google suite of apps like Docs and Sheets and Gmail, too, this is extremely helpful and makes this Chromebook feel versatile in the way other laptops are.

My experience on this laptop, as you could have guessed from the Geekbench experience, is that not all Android apps run properly. It’s a frustrating change from the smooth, responsive Chromebook Pixel, which got all this right — and had a touchscreen too, just in case. ports, a headphone jack, and a charging port — all sit on the left-side edge, where they’re much easier to find than on the back of last year’s model. While they’re both pretty much the same size and equally rugged, you’ll save a little more room in your bag with the HP Chromebook 11, which is a tiny bit slimmer and a little lighter. Find out how your chosen laptop stacks up against the competition and whether it's the one that best meets your expectations with the laptop comparison feature.I ran the tests multiple times, reinstalled the app, and did everything I could think of to get it to work — but no luck.

As with the Dell Chromebook 11 3180, the display on the HP Chromebook 11 is muted and lacks overall brightness.One of the most positive aspects of any laptop is the get-up-and-go convenience from the form factor and battery life. Sure, you get a bigger screen, if that's important to you, but again the fit and finish are distinctly average; it just feels like a computer nobody really cared much about. Just by virtue of its form factor, the Chromebook 11 is better than a tablet for a lot of things, but the specs here don’t add up to anything special. Each test would go through the entire process, but once a test was finished and the app calculated the results, it would crash. And don’t look now, but the industry is noticing: Toshiba, Acer, Lenovo, and other manufacturers are announcing devices running Google’s Chrome OS, and Chromebooks are now used in 22 percent of US school districts and in countries around the world.
