HP Stream 11 Review | Trusted Reviews

A Windows laptop for just £179.99 that isn't totally rubbish.

Exceptional value for money ; Excellent battery life ; Eye-catching design ; Bundled with Office 365 Personal

Unspectacular HD display ; Slightly iffy touchpad

An 11-inch laptop that's incredible value for money

HP Stream 11

The HP Stream 11 is a laptop aimed predominantly at students, and it's available for an extraordinarily low £179.99. For that you get a portable 11-inch laptop that even includes an Office 365 subscription worth £59.99 – it's one of the key things that...

HP Stream 11 review: This £179 budget Windows laptop has lots to offer

HP has taken the budget Windows laptop sector by storm with the Stream 11, a compact 11.6-inch laptop that's priced to sell for just £179. Despite being advertised over last Christmas, the slow boat from China missed the present season and has only...

The HP Stream 11 is using the cheapest Intel chip that can run Windows comfortably, has a very limited eMMC storage card with just 20 GB available space, and includes a free version of Windows given away to PC makers to keep Google Chrome OS at bay....

HP Stream 11 review

The pitch for laptops running Google's Chrome OS, known as Chromebooks, is pretty straightforward. Why pay extra for a laptop running Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system, when all you really need is access to a Web browser? For some people, nearly...

The HP Stream 11 looks good for such an inexpensive laptop, battery life is excellent, and it includes a year of Microsoft Office 365 and 1TB of OneDrive online storage.

Even running a few tasks at once can slow it down. The touchpad is often finicky, and the onboard 32GB SSD is too small for even casual use.

The HP Stream 11 aims to be a cloud-focused laptop, much like a Chromebook, but with the added utility of Windows 8. It's a rock-bottom budget laptop, so don't get your hopes up, but the battery life is impressive.

HP Stream 11 review

(Rating Hidden)

The HP Stream 11 is a slim, lightweight, bargain-basement laptop that comes in a choice of funky colours, but is it as easy to use as it is on the eye and wallet? We put it through our laptop tests to find out.

HP Stream 11 review

HP's sub-£200 laptop combines practicality with amazing value for money

What’s more, it’s a bit more versatile than a Chromebook, working brilliantly with online apps, but still able to run more conventional Windows software if you’re sensible about your requirements or pair it with an external USB 3 hard disk. As a...

HP Stream 11 review: Inexpensive but not cheap

The HP Stream 11 is basically Chromebook parts with Windows. And it works great.

Small, light, and clean design ; Full Windows 8.1 without any performance problems ; Just $200 with a year of Office 365 ; Seven hours of battery life

Not the fastest computer, you pay for what you get ; The trackpad is tiny and lacks sensitivity

HP Stream 11 review: a $200 Windows laptop meant to be a Chromebook killer

It's no secret that people like Chromebooks. That can't be good news for Microsoft, which used to own the market for cheap computers. Not one to take thi

Low price ; Bright, playful design ; Comfortable keyboard ; 25 Windows Store gift card included ; Includes 1TB of cloud storage and a one-year Office 365 subscription

So-so display ; Slow boot-up times ; Touchpad could use some fine-tuning

At $200, the Stream 11 is a good deal, especially compared to pricier Chromebooks, but beware that it comes with many of the same trade-offs as other budget laptops, including a low-quality display and slow boot-up time.

HP Stream 11 review: meet the next generation of cheap laptops

Netbooks were actually a great idea. When you boil it all the way down, it's simple: build a computer that does all the things an average user needs and doesn't try to do anything else, and sell...

More capable than almost any other $200 laptop ; Free Office for a year ; Well-built for a cheap laptop ; It's so cheap!

Mediocre display ; Poor trackpad ; Can't always keep up with heavy use
