Model: I really want to start with the price tag first. Between 200-300 Euros you can buy the HP Chromebook 14-db0411nd. It is basically a steal with this price. Does it have a lot to provide? It is debatable. Is it worth it? Again, debatable. It may seem like that I am not too optimistic, but hear me out.

Lets say you have a child and you want to give your child something to play with. What are your options? A tablet in best case. If you want to buy something with a keyboard, it will be presumably close to the same price as the HP Chromebook 14. Since it only has 4 GB of RAM, for someone who would like to use it as a secondary work laptop just for web browsing or dealing with other stuff, it may not be sufficient. Considering the 32 GB eMMC, it is not a multimedia device either. It is something that is better than netbooks but worse than laptops. Keeping the price in mind, it provides something that is almost impossible to pass.

But if you say, price is not the point for me, I want something that would be my right hand all day and be my everything, please stop reading. It is not your device. If you are someone who is tight on budget and just looking for something temporary and on a daily basis all you do is browsing websites and using cloud services, you are at the right address. With its performance cap, some android apps may take longer to start or even to adjust after being opened, but it is something that you should expect keeping the price in mind.

One thing you will be definitely lacking is going to be a video out. You will need a dongle for that. Is there anything that I can criticize about the HP Chromebook 14? Well, as I emphasized too many times already, with a price tag of 200-300 Euros, I don’t want to be too neat picky. Compared to tablets, your advantage is a bit more RAM, a bigger screen and of course a static keyboard. Downsize is of course weight. Tablets are around 0.5 kg, but the Chromebook 14 is a bit over 1.5 kg.

Would I buy it for myself? Nope. Would I buy it for my mom? Yup. If my mom were to need a laptop, that would be more than enough for her.

AMD Radeon R2 (Stoney Ridge): Integrated graphics adapter of some AMD-E2 APUs ("Stoney Ridge"). Based on the GCN architecture, implements 128 shader units and runs at up to 600 MHz depending on the model. The performance can vary heavily depending on the TDP (10-15 Watts for the whole chip).

Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.

A4-9120: Entry-level APU from AMD's Stoney Ridge lineup. Integrates 2 CPU cores clocked at 2.2 - 2.5 GHz, a single-channel DDR4-2133 memory controller as well as a Radeon GPU with 128 shader units clcoked at 655 MHz at a TDP of 15 Watts (configurable between 10-15 Watts). » Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.

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.


100%: This model is obviously considered exceptional by the testers. There are almost no laptops that are rated this well. If the reviews or the sources that give these ratings are to be taken seriously, then it is a very clear buy recommendation. Unfortunately, sometimes top scores are also squandered.
