HP Chromebook MediaTek Kompanio 500 – (4 GB/64 GB EMMC Storage/Chrome OS) 11a-na0004MU Chromebook

Received it yesterday. \n\nIt has a 100% plastic body. Touchscreen works well. Touchpad is also great. Boots in seconds. It has a port for USB type-A where you should be able to insert a harddisk/pendrive or any USB device, but unfortunately you’ll have to do that forcefully as the port is very tigh/small for those devices. It has a USB type-C port, a 3.5 mm audio jack and a slot for memory card. I have used it for around 9 hours and approx. 50% battery is used. It has 64 GB RAM, the OS occupies ~17 GB of it. Apps like Google docs, slides, sheets, photos, Gmail, YouTube music, etc are pre-installed (though don’t work great). Any app that is available on the playstore can be installed on Chrome OS (many of the apps are designed for the phone’s or tablets, so might not look good on Chromebooks). You can activate Linux (beta) if you want so (have to dedicate some disk space to that as well). You can expand the memory upto 256 GB using a memory card. The screen’s brightness is good for indoors. The laptop weighs just more than a kg and light, but should be lighter according to its small body. You get OS and security updates up to 2028.\n\nOverall it’s a good buy.

i loved it, superb performance, awesome battery and touch is just wow.. this is a complete package, design is also premium and build is also premium, loved it ….

An awesome product from HP at this price. \n\nThe Laptop looks great & is very light to carry. Plus it has touchscreen. \nThe performance is good for basic use, it handles multiple chrome tabs & apps easily. Battery is the best thing here. Easily gives more than 9-10 hrs of battery life, depending on use. \n\nThe Web cam quality is also decent at this price point. \nThe sound quality is also decent. You get 45 gb of storage of this device (as system uses the rest). \n\nThe touchscreen is responsive & good enough. It is quite helpful. (Especially when you don’t want to use the keyboard or mouse to scroll). \n\nThe keyboard & mouse are also decent enough. Could have been better. \n\nOverall, A must buy for students, in school or in college for online classes. Also, recommended for professionals who do the documentation, PPTs, Excel, etc. Work. Good for web surfing, movies & light gaming also.

Bang for buck. Just go for it, Only one con which can be sorted.\n\nI have purchased a windows 10 celeron laptop from acer years back, it is too slow to use because windows can not perform without good hardware.\n\nChromebook is perfect choice for this less powerful hardware for casual use, Netflix, Zoom/Google Meet classes & browsing etc all works perfect without any lag.\nAlso no heating issue, very slim & compact form factor\n\nPros:\n- Apps from appstore is a huge plus.\n- touchscreen is a huge plus, makes using it a breeze.\n- No fan as it has heat sink inside, i have used it continuously for hours watching movies on Netflix & it didn’t even get warm.\n- Can install Linux apps very easily, installed Visual Studio code to learn python, good to have Linux support.\n- Can fill school worksheets online using adobe reader (Fill & sign Form) from playstore.\n- for Office you can use google docs or Microsoft Office app from playstore.\n- Compact & sturdy build, doesn’t feel like cheap windows laptops at this price range which are mostly flimsy & overheats most of the time for even copy paste.\n\nCons:\n- Speaker are just Ok, like every other laptop, could have been louder, i use a Bluetooth speaker so that con is sorted.\n\nMain use is kid’s online classes for which it is just perfect, no qualms with the purchase, but genuinely happy for such a product at such a price.

It’s a great laptop and delivery was very fast but the box condition was okay but laptop and other things inside the box were great and I am using this laptop working properly and battery backup is great and laptop is very fast and it’s easy to carry because it’s slim and light weight thanks Flipkart 👍👍👍👍 keep it up
