HP Chromebook 14 Review #HPJoy

Looking for a Chromebook this holiday season?  I recently received an HP Chromebook 14, actually I received not ONE but TWO. ONE for me – and another for a lucky reader! More on our HP Chromebook giveaway soon. Until then, let me tell you all about this laptop.

HP Chromebook 14

My daughter uses a Chromebook for school every day, so I was familiar with Chrome OS  how it worked. While I’ve used her’s a few time (she has a Samsung Chromebook), I always felt it was too small for my liking (11 inches) and not as well built as a standard Windows laptop or Macbook. The HP Chromebook 14 is sturdy (yes, a toddler has accidentally dropped it — already), and it only weighs in at 4.6 lbs!

My Favorite Features

Free T-Mobile Service for 2 Years

2 years of free mobile Internet service up to 200MB of 4G data per month with no annual contract.

Okay, I am going to start with my absolute favorite feature of the HP Chromebook 14 – 24 months of FREE internet on the Chromebook from T-Mobile. That’s right, with the built in card, you can access the internet anywhere with this thing without needing a hotspot or wi-fi connection!  I’m a mom-on-the-go and internet everywhere so I can work anywhere is a must and with it built-in and free – that makes me happy.

100 Gigs of Google Drive Space

100GB of Google Drive storage: Store and access your files and content anywhere with 100GB of Google Drive storage, free for 2 years.

With 100 gigs of Google Drive space, you will have plenty of room to store your files.

Free GoGo Inflight Internet

12 free sessions of GoGo® Inflight Internet

Do you travel often? This Chromebook gives you 12 free sessions of GoGo® Inflight Internet sesssions! T

Screen Size

With a 14 inch screen, I have ample viewing room. I typically work on a 13 inch screen and the extra inch makes a huge difference.

Instant Start Up

There’s no power button, just open the cover and it starts!

Ultra Slim

The ultra-slim design makes this laptop easy to transport. I can slide it right into my work bag, with ample room for my other stuff.
