Reviews for the HP Stream 13-c020nr

Comment

Model: Despite rather low retail price, the HP Stream 13 is a new ultra-portable laptop with a basketful of surprises. The Stream 13 comes in 2 unique gradient of colors, Horizon Blue and Orchid Magenta, which looks pretty sweet and eye catching to conventional laptops. The chassis is made of plastic rather than aluminum to reduce weight, though it still feels solid unlike other low cost laptops such as the Chromebooks. At only 0.77 inch (1.96 cm) thick and 3.33 pounds (1.51 kg), it is easy on the back and fits well on the lap or into an airline tray table. The Stream 13 has a 13.3 inch display with a 1366 by 768 resolution. The picture quality is decent, though limited in max brightness and viewing angle.

Storage is a double edged sword. The Stream 13 uses a 32 GB solid state drive, which makes it run pretty fast, but is not really practical for storing any reasonable amount of data. Users are encouraged to use the Microsoft OneDrive online cloud storage system, with free service in the first year, though there is always the old fashion way of external hard disks. Battery life on the Stream 13 is amazing at over 9 hours, sufficient for an entire day of work without going back to the plug.
