A few also mentioned issues with the touchpad and operating system.

    Bought it for video conferencing for school, but mic was terrible even when connected to an external mic. Other than that issue it's fine. It's basic and not fancy.

    I like the the style and compact size. I'm having problems with it connecting to internet. My older cromebook doesn't have a problem. Other than that it works great.

    I bought this thinking it would be great to take on travel. After I got it, I realized it would not meet my needs. I returned it.

    We bought this computer before 2020 fall school year in the hopes that it would be enough for remote learning for our 3rd grader. It was not. We had to set her up with a 2 year old Acer Chromebook with an Intel Celeron processor because any kind of screen sharing or too many Zoom participants makes this HP Chromebook's audio and video unusable. Really, AMD? I expected more, even for $200.

    My service was not completed satisfactorily. My TV is not working and I have no volume on any channel. Terrible service because I cannot get through to anyone to report this but the are charging me for a purchase of $249.00 which I didn’t make. Someone please contact me as soon as possible. At this point I would recommend that Best Buy stop working with Geek Squad. I, along with many friends , will start looking for TV repair people.

    It works for like elementary school kids. You cannot add Word or other Office programs which makes it difficult for older folks to use it.

    I never used a Chromebook before, but since I started using Google docs more often than word I decided to give this platform a try using an entry level model. I hate this thing. I can't use this computer while the charger is in. If i do the thing cuts off and I have to complete a system restore. If my information wasn't saved online I would have lost everything 12 times.

    THIS WAS A HORRIBLE LAPTOP IN EVERY WAY

    The laptop heated up after only a few minutes of use. It also just shut down in the middle of a game or video, etc. I bought this to replace my old HP Chromebook that NEVER gave me trouble until this year. I am very disappointed in this product and would not recommend it to anyone. What a pain to have to return it with all that's going on with the virus situation.

    I like laptops with the numbers on the side. I completely understand why they give these to the kids for school. It serves its purpose.
