Comment

Model: The HP Chromebook 11 G4 is laptop designed for work on the go. In addition to its sturdy construction, the chassis also has a sleek, modern and minimalist design. It comes pre-installed with Chrome’s own operating system known as Chrome OS, which basically is a Google Chrome browser with some additional add-ons. The laptop comes with a 2.16 GHz Intel Celeron N2840 processor, an integrated Intel HD Graphics and 4 GB DDR3L-1600 SDRAM. The hard disk capacity included in this laptop is 16 GB. Its anti-glare 11.6-inch display features a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels and produces fairly sharp pictures. HD videos and photos look decent on it.

The Chiclet-style keyboard is solidly built. It is comfortable to type on since the keys are spaced out well. While the device lacks a DVD drive, it provides a USB 3.0 port, USB 2.0, an HDMI port, a headphone/microphone combo jack and a multi-format card reader. In addition, a security lock is available. The laptop has a convenient weight of only 0.95 kg and it can last up to 7:10 hours during continuous web surfing via Wi-Fi.

Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail):

Integrated GPU for tablet and notebook Bay Trail SoCs. Based on the Ivy Bridge GPU with four Execution Units and support for DirectX 11.

N2840: Soc with an integrated dual core Atom processor clocked at up to 2.58 GHz and an Intel HD Graphics GPU.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.


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.


75%: 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.
