HP Chromebook, 2-in-1, 14C-CA0053DX, i3-10110U, 8GB, 64GB, S

This is easily the best deal I've ever scored on Amazon. The price for this renewed item was 1/3 of a new model. The condition is immaculate. It was listed as "Excellent," and that was not a lie. Not a scratch I could find anywhere facing me. There was one ding on the bottom that I barely noticed. Screen? Perfect. Keyboard? Perfect. Setup took 5 minutes. i3/8GB/64GB. Seems paltry, but it's all you really need. Amazing what a ridiculous beast Windows units are after using a good Chromebook. I do have a 512GB micro SD card I keep installed, but I don't even use it. It syncs with free Google Drive automatically. The touchscreen is responsive and has no dead spots or washout zones.The size is perfect for what I need. Fits great in the lap, doesn't get too warm, the battery life claims 11 hours left and I have no doubt it will make it. It's not a cheap design. This is a premium, durable Chromebook, even if it didn't get the AI Plus whatever branding. Fingerprint sensor for 2FA? Check (no mandatory PINs after setup). Backlit keyboard? Check.I have one of these already, purchased new, and I can't live without it. I don't really need a new one, but for under $200 I will absolutely keep a spare for travel. It does everything: docs, spreadsheets, gaming (light - Final Fantasy 7 tested). Without the drag of Windows OS, nothing handles web browsing faster than a Chromebook. Even with just 8gb of RAM, page loads are instantaneous. YouTube? Flawless. Netflix? Flawless. In fact, I would go so far as to say that unless you do serious video editing, have some arcane program that only runs on Windows or MAC, or you are a Gaming Ninja, this will beat ANY Windows/Apple system for general speed. It updates everytime you turn it on, and it takes 5 minutes, tops. It's usually more like a minute. Your browser is Chrome, and no other browser is as easy to sync between phone, Chromebook, and a PC.Seriously, check out the specs of the new Chromebook Plus models and then come back and grab this model, while you can.

This is a fabulous chromebook. As one product reviewer wrote " HP got this chromebook (HP x360 model 14c-ca0053dx) nearly perfect.". I absolutely love it. This one is built solid and has all the features I wanted. Some examples of what I like include:Nice gorilla glass screen with very minimal bezelRuns Linux appsRuns Android appsType c connectors 2eaStandard USB 1eaBuilt in camera for video appsChrome OS is fastSD card Slot - I use 128GB cardBeautiful screen graphics & a touch screenCharges fastHeadphone jackBattery life I'd say is typical of what you see from any of these machines. It really depends on what you are doing. Simple browsing, typing, reading it seems to last most of the day. If you do heavy video work, you can run it down pretty fast, like 5-6 hours. The battery life is going to vary proportional to the type and amount of work you do on the machine. I'd say this chromebook can hold its own with the best of themOutstanding backlit keyboard which flips all the way back behind the display for tablet mode.In tablet mode it supports all the finger gestures my old reader tablet supportsIts thin and light compared to the really old laptop I was using.Google support until 2028Integrates very well with my Google Pixel 3 phoneI could go on and on. Great job HP and Google too! This one will last me a very long time.The downside, well not really...I found the touchpad to be sometimes just a little sluggish as far as responsiveness. That is to say sometimes it doesn't recognize my finger touch the first time. This is not a big deal for me and I can live with it, as it happens only occasionally. The touchpad gestured are really great.My other item is just a suggestion for HP. I purchased the 64GB memory option, which I'd recommend as minimal if you plan to use Linux and Android apps like I do. My suggestion would be that HP would make a 128GB option available, although the 64 GB has not been an issue for me yet. I am already using half of it.So my plan for this terrific machine was to replace my old android Samsung reader tablet with something more robust. This thing is so robust that it also replaces my old laptop that ran Ubuntu linux too. I like linux because its fast and has a ton of open source apps to rival anything windows can do. Well, the chromebook runs all the linux apps I need, and I can still play around in linux using the terminal command line interface. I also get the chrome apps, which are okay by comparison, and all the great apps in the Google play store. More importantly the chrome browser is fast, as is access to all the online Google stuff like GMail, calendar, Drive, docs... The online web experience is wonderful.I give this HP x369 an AAA++ rating in my book. I love it - best decision I could have made.I'll stop now 😀

Really like the device it was easy to set up and get running. Like the back lit keys. I understand there was a day delay yet it came in quick and undamaged

I waited for this, because it really is incredibly gorgeous (even sexy) solid, feels good, has a perfect weight and a magnet at the front, so you need a little effort to open it, the screen stays where ever you want it to be, it's nice and tight. I've never figured out the fingerprint. You still have to login with your password. The screen is gorgeous, I could never live without backlit, now that I have it. But I have a lot of trouble with Prime Video. I bought 147 videos on Prime, but have a lot of trouble downloading them, I left a review and hopefully that will get fixed. It used to work fine, it's all the updates that caused the problem. But I absolutely LOVE the Chromebook and the way the HP is somewhat artistic, it's 4 vertical lines without horizontal lines, you know it's HP and the lines are kind of chrome like, the color of the laptop is a wonderful grey "Mineral Silver" with darker keys. Even when I have a little trouble with it, I still LOVE IT. Highly recommended, if you love beautifully designed things! The volume could be a little higher, but I use ear plugs, so that doesn't really matter. It's absolutely Stunning!!
