Product Review – The HP Stream 11 Laptop
Source: On MSFT Archive.org version
Overall, with a full version of Windows 8.1, 1TB of cloud storage, and access to Office 365, it is obvious that Microsoft has designed the Stream 11 to occupy a market that was previously taken over by Chromebooks. Although it is still a budget laptop with a few tradeoffs to prove it, I think the drawbacks can be forgiven when you look at all of the other advantages to this little laptop.

70% HP Stream 11 (11-d020nr)
Source: PC Mag Archive.org version
For an inexpensive Windows laptop, our top pick is the HP Stream 13 (13-c020nr), which is merely $30 more expensive, but offers similar portability and performance without the wonky touchpad issues. The Stream 11 does, however, offer a nice alternative to the Asus Transformer Book T100TA (64GB), provided you don't need tablet capability, and is a good choice over the Acer Chromebook C720P-2600 if you want to save a few extra bucks and still have Windows onboard.

Comment

Model: The HP Stream 11 is Microsoft's answer to the emerging low cost Chromebooks flooding the market. While within the low cost category, the HP Stream 11 is optimized for slimness. With a fanless design, the build is barely 0.8 inch (2.03 cm) thick. It comes in Orchid Magenta, certainly a loud, eye catching color which might prove too bright for users who prefer more conservative designs. The screen is an 11.6 inch display with a 1366 x 768 resolution, which provides decent image quality.

The hardware for the HP Stream 11 comes with a few surprises. The designers squeezed in an almost full sized keyboard, which is very unusual in 11.6 inch devices. However, the Delete, Esc and arrow keys are half sized. The HP Stream 11 comes with an Intel Celeron dual core processor with 2 GB of RAM, which is sufficient to smoothly run most light applications. The HP Stream 11 also comes with a couple of additional perks such as 1 TB of OneDrive storage and Microsoft Office 365 Personal for a year.

11.60":

This is a standard display format for tablet computers or small convertibles. You see more on the screen than on a smartphone but you can't use big resolutions well. On the other hand, mobility is not a problem.

HP: Founded in 1939, the US company is a major server and printer manufacturer and one of the leading IT companies in the world. Until 2015, the company was called Hewlett-Packard Company. After a split, the computer division was renamed HP Inc.

In 2023, HP had an approximate market share of 22% of global PC sales, making it number 2 after Lenovo.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
