    BEWARE

    There is a design flaw with this product which HP does not cover. The case is poorly designed and cracked just sitting on the desk with normal use. The crack caused the touchpad to malfunction. A quick google search showed this is a common problem caused by the design. HP will not cover (even though it is still under warranty). The repair costs more than the I paid for it. So less than a year in, I have to buy a Chromebook. From my experience, do not buy this product from this manufacturer.

    I bought this larger Chromebook on sale for under $200 and didn't realize it has a compressed keyboard and is not back-lit. Very difficult transition from my past Chromebooks but guess I might use it once in a while.

    This is more like a big smart phone - runs android and so if you are planning on using software (I wanted to use Acura for 3D printing) this is not the computer for you. I mostly just use it to watch Netflix and ocassionally update the budget I keep in a google doc. Next time I’m going to spend a little more and gets some functionality.

    The CHROMEBOOK is NOT for me

    I returned this product the very next day after purchase. If your NOT very knowledgeable about computers DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT. Be aware of what you are buying. It was VERY HARD to get set up and VERY different than just the average laptop. For someone very computer literate it should work fine for them. My rating for this product is just because it was very difficult to get set up for me. Thank You

    Purchased this laptop for college, unable to record or video, camera is defective and constantly says in use by another app even though I’ve done ALL the troubleshooting suggested, when you look where the camera is suppose to be there’s no camera just lines going through it. EXTREMLY DISAPPOINTING

    It’s a great computer. It’s just that I was unable to do Lockdown Browser on the computer so I had to return it.

    Good laptop but it will not connect to my printer, which is the only reason I bought it. Apparently Chromebooks must connect wirelessly so I can't print.

    Did not like this product. Tried for several months and it just did not work for me. I gave it to my nephews wife who seems to be fine with it. I will use the saying “you get what you pay for” as the Chromebook is very inexpensive but, in my opinion, also has very limited capabilities.
