    I love this small laptop. I have a 17 inch but it is cumbersome to take around when I just want to huddle and read in bed or my favorite recliner. I love the keyboard. The color is silver/white. I am very happy I purchased this. I use it all the time.

    A very light small laptop. Can be an excellent present to grandparents who want to be connected with grandchildren through some new cyber tools, or be with friends and families through social platforms.

    Bought this as a replacement for another HP computer which stopped working after 1 day. Less than a month later, turned it on, the screen was frozen with pixels. Brought it back to best buy ans was asked if i dropped it. Nope. I was very careful with the laptop. I only needed it for one program and I guess, for laptops, you really get what you pay for. Returned it and will just wait for a better deal with a better laptop. I'm done with HP. Luckily Best buy has the extended returns for the holidays or else I would have paid $260 for nothing

    I bought this laptop for school. So I mostly use the internet to research, the word processor. The battery life is long and on top of that it charges real fast. I can toggle between using the internet, word processor and streaming Spotify and it runs pretty quick. If I try to go on YouTube and stream videos it gets a little laggy but not as much. However, when the quality of the videos have amazing color and definition. I am happy with this laptop and it was a great buy.

    Pretty good, nice keyboard, it is fairly slow but for a very budget type laptop it works well enough for basic web browsing, Netflix, and Microsoft Word.

    Its an HP computer and lives up to their reputation. It was purchased strictly for checking email on the main floor of our house, as our desktop is on a lower level. So far it fulfills our expectations. Runs a bit slow but adequate.

    I don’t like to knock products. This is a solid good laptop at an amazing price. It was advertised honestly. But I had hoped maybe it would be fast enough, and it’s not. For regular users, you need stronger hardware.

    I originally purchased this for myself but then gave it my aunt to use for basic use, primarily reading news, checking stocks and shopping. It was easy to set up and easy to teach my aunt how to use it. It’s smaller but it looks so cute. It is great for basic use!

    I bought this to replace my old Mac. The price point was great and I use my computer for very little except stock trades-no gaming or things that use a lot of computing power. However, every time I got a new download from MS, the computer slowed to a crawl. Two years later, I was buying a new, much more expensive computer. Do not make my mistake but instead buy an upgraded unit.

    The laptop came with Microsoft office 365 which is something I wanted and it also came with a virus protection something that I needed since I browse the internet a lot. I really love those two features the most about this HP laptop stream.

    At first I thought the screen size might be too small but no it wasn't. It's perfect, the Best Buy representative helped me shop for it. It's perfect for me, the color is my favorite and it's very portable. This is my perfect screen size.

    Lightweight and unobtrusive laptop that didn't give me any issues. A little short on storage space but I added a 256gb card to deal with that.
