Is the HP Chromebook 14 good for schoolwork?

Yes for web-based work: documents, email, video classes and Google apps run fine. Heavy multitasking or demanding software will feel slow.

Can it run Windows apps like Microsoft Office?

No. It runs Chrome OS, so you use web versions of Office and Android apps from the Play Store, not installed Windows programs.

How much can I store on it?

It has 64GB of eMMC storage, part used by the system. A microSD card adds space for files and media.

Does it have USB-C or a touchscreen?

No to both. It has two USB-A ports, a headphone jack and a microSD reader, and the 14-inch screen is not touch.

Is 4GB of RAM enough?

For a few tabs and light apps, yes. Keep many tabs or Android apps open and it slows down.

What comes in the box?

The laptop and its power adapter. No mouse or case is included.

Our take on the HP Chromebook Laptop Computer 14" HD

The HP Chromebook 14 is a basic 14-inch laptop running Chrome OS on an Intel Celeron processor with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC storage. Its 1366x768 matte display, dual speakers, two USB-A ports, a headphone jack and a microSD reader cover the essentials for browsing, email, documents and streaming. It suits students and light home users who want a simple, secure machine for the web and Android apps. Against pricier Chromebooks it gives up a sharper screen, USB-C and speed, and the Celeron with 4GB of RAM gets sluggish with many tabs open.
