Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purposely waited for a while before writing this review as people tend to write good ones right away and then have regrets after a while. I've had it about 6 - 8 weeks now and I haven't had any problems. Although it doesn't have the look or feel of a high end laptop, it is everything it's supposed to be. I got a refurbished one but mine came packaged well with no damage or signs of use. It responds as well as expected and doesn't seem to get stuck or freeze much. I don't think this machine is a powerhouse but then it doesn't claim to be. I wouldn't store important things on it without backing them up first but then again you really shouldn't do that with any computer. Overall I am happy with this purchase and I would definitely purchase the exact same one again (at the same price point). I paid a little more than $200 bucks for it and it does exactly what I need it to do. I'm giving it 5 stars not because it's a perfect computer but because it's exactly what you would expect from a $200 laptop given it's specs. Very happy with it.

The Chromebook is fast and compact and I use it everyday, and I added a wireless mouse for ease of use. It often jumps when I'm scrolling which is a little anointing, but it's still a handy item of equipment that I appreciate very much.

I was told Google was easy to follow, but having come from a lifetime of Apple products I found the trasition difficult. That being said, it is fast, as advertised, the screen is clear, the silver case is well made, and it's easy to carry. For the price it's darn good.

Good laptop, gets what’s needed done quickly and has no issues. Speed and quality is top notch for the model, each activity is possibly easier when you have this laptop. All settings are top of the line and easily accessible

Bought this since I wanted something that can do the basic necessities. I will say, the battery life on this Chromebook is something else. Can last for days if using for simple browsing, YouTube videos, and reading. Picture is also better than I expected for the price. Would recommend if your looking for a laptop to do basic stuff on.

Got this chrome book for my daughter. The screen is large and she got it started right away. A great laptop for a really great price. Does everything we need it to do. Looks good too

So far so good! I’m not sure what i was expecting out of this Chromebook but I’ve been pleasantly surprised with the functionality, speed, weight….and I love the size of the screen. Much bigger than I anticipated

Bought for my daughter whonis using it for school, social, and watching videos. She is thrilled, its snappier than i expected for the price. Able to manage 3 apps open at a time, charge holds well. Can't find anything to complain about, but I wouldnt expect it to be able to run hi-res games well.

Excellent product. User friendly. Will strongly recommend to friends and coworkers.

Excellent product. Nice screen size, and fast chromebook.

Loving this laptop. It’s affordable and easy to set up. It does everything the pricier brands do at a fraction of the price. My son is using it during his freshman year of College.

Wanted a laptop that would boot up fast to use for quick web searches or streaming video. This HP Chromebook fits these requirements perfectly. The battery lasts a long time before needing to be recharged. Streaming video looks great. Best Buy had the best price for this model.

An excellent product that works flawlessly. This HP Chromebook is fast, simplistic to use and ideal for most people that enjoy using the internet securely without having to run complicated maintenance apps and software. The perfect laptop for people of all ages...

Great computer for price almost unbeatable. Using for school and daily tasks, works terrific!

I purchased 2 of these (open box excellent). They are great little machines, especially for $150 each. Plenty of power, much faster than my old Acer chromebook. It was getting bogged down with the newer versions of everything requiring more RAM and a faster processor.

Great laptop! I ordered it and picked it up the same day. The camera has an on and off on top of the camera lens I believe.

Love my new laptop, nice screen size fast enough for what i need it for, price was excellent!!!!!

Good relation price vs quality. Big screen and numeric keyboard

This is perfect for simple everyday use. Easy to use and and super light and compact to carry around.

Good unit. I've had dozens of computers and laptops. This one I'd rate 4 to 4.5 because the screen resolution is a little fuzzy and, typical for this type of display, isn't very visible except when looking at it straight on. That said, I've had other Chromebooks with the same type of screen that did a little better in that regard. Battery life is fair but could be better. Overall, after 50 years in IT, I've come to loathe HP's stuff, but this unit, so far, in about a month's use has been doing fine - knock on silicon. Just wish these came with a little more memory, like 16GB and a bigger built-in eMMC, like 128 or even 256GB ... it doesn't take long to fill it up. But if you're going to use it for basic things like email, browsing, watching videos (meh), and simple admin / office things, it would be a good choice (if it's on sale, like mine was). If it hadn't been on sale at a deeper discount - a deal of the day gig - I'd have not bought it (see above RE HP :). The other improvement would be keyboard backlighting, although many Chromebooks don't have that anyway. The reason for me is that I can type fast without looking at the keyboard -but- I have four other keyboards I use and somehow the layout is just different enough that I frequently hit one key over. So backlight would help me orient before ripping loose. If you need a good, larger Chromebook, I can recommend this one. But check back in 6 months to make sure I've not started a rant about having bought another piece of HP junk. Caveat Emptor! :P
