Reviews for the HP Chromebook x360 13b-ca000
Source: PC Mag
With just 4GB of RAM, no HDMI port, and no bundled stylus for handwriting, sketching, or annotating, the HP Chromebook x360 13b clearly lands on the budget rather than premium side of the scale. Regardless, this Chromebook does its job easily, with satisfactory if not barn-burning performance, a decent screen and keyboard, and a handy 2-in-1 design. It's not one of our top three Chromebooks, but—especially when on sale for less than $350—it earns a spot in the top 10.

HP continues to push the envelope when it comes to offering different options in the Chromebook market. The Chromebook x360 13b is the perfect example of this with its convertible design, USI compatibility, all while opting for a MediaTek chip as opposed to Intel or AMD. It might not win any awards for being "the best" at anything other than offering a well-rounded experience.

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.

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.
