[@raphealcostume4332]

[@raphealcostume4332]

I only use it to play roblox it won't work

[@MushyMan]

I also play roblox on it and the laptop is crap

[@earnthat]

I have it and literally turning it on puts the thing at 99% capacity, and having Chrome open is sure to crash it. The problems only come in after the date where you can return it goes by, which is disgusting. The storage space is a joke, 32GB, and Windows leaves you with just 6-10GB with it installed, and bloatware keeps on coming back effectively rendering the laptop useless. I am planning to get an Ideapad 320 for just £50 more than the Stream costs, and it can play games like Fortnite at 30fps with the settings down. Hasta la vista, HP.

[@LieutenantSneer]

*DO NOT BUY A LAPTOP WITH ONLY 32GB STORAGE!* I have worked on multiple laptops like this and they run out of space from just downloading Windows Updates. There is no way to avoid this, even if you use a micro SD for extra storage. There is no way to swap out the hard drive and you are stuck with 32GB forever.

[@beargvn]

This is the laptop my school sent me. It barely runs. The screen is nearly bendable. I treat it kindly and had dead pixels within 3 months. It can barely run KZbin. But because they have it hard locked on Windows 7 it can run chrome. It lives for 3 days on normal usage (3-4 hours of school work). The Bluetooth doesn’t work at all. It’s not worth the cheap price.

[@clintonleonard5187]

[@Chukijay]

PXL-Cube maybe when you’re not trying to get WiFi to work, or Bluetooth, or Ethernet, or a printer. Or figuring out how to use the freeware versions of more well-known apps. Linux is great but trying to get people to use it based off price is cringe to me because I have ALWAYS ended up those peoples tech support in my experience.

[@Chukijay]

Linux has come a long way but it isn’t there yet, and will never be mainstream worthy.

[@alliejr]

Not even close. Linux UI is power hungry. Windows UI is optimized for the lowest common denominator running fine on 10-year-old hardware.

[@owlwithbow2375]

Linux is easy to install nowadays. And it doesnt differ a lot from Windows if you use a easy distro. Of course something like Arch is hard..

[@narwhal4304]

I would still rather use Linux over Windows for other reasons. It's easier to update, less of a pain if you HAVE to reinstall, and (this last one is more subjective) doesn't have any unnecessary animations like Windows 10 or Mac OS.

You can get a significantly better computer used. This laptop will slow the F down after a month of use and updates. We have so many people bring in these because they are slow and we can't do anything. My dad was gifted one. It took 20mins to install chrome.

[@alliejr]

Now there's your problem. Don't customize it. Just use Windows Edge out the box and be happy. Also, Chrome is a known memory and CPU hog.

[@MacPerfid]

Or install a linux distro. I've had an asus e403sa with a pentium n4200 for a year and a half now, and it's still as fast as the day I bought it. Not that fast though.

[@Mike504]

Yes installing Linux would run fine on this. I still would prefer picking up a used gen 2-3 i3/i5 for the same price or less. If you were patient you could snag a 3rd Gen i5 in good condition with 6-8gb ram, replace the battery and upgrade the hard drive to a 128gb ssd for the same cost.

[@MacPerfid]

You've got a point, but as a student, I'm not (only) after best performance for the money. I actually need the 10-hours battery life that these low-powered braswell / apollo lake / gemini lake permit, and I prefer a semi (asus e403) or full-metal (acer swift 1, teclast f7) build if I'm going to take the laptop in and out of my backpack everyday. 4gb of RAM is annoying if you're using win10 and chrome, but it's plenty for linux and firefox. (edit: it's got an n3700, not an n4200, it's a lot slower, but it just goes to prove my point)

[@amanasd26]

If it can't run a web browser than what good is it? People should spend the extra money or look for something used instead. This toy is just going to end up in the trash

To the people complaining about $200 laptops, wtf were you expecting? I mean, this is a low-end laptop. A basic PC costs $300-$500. Gaming ones are $600+ (and often customized). $200 laptops are designed to be low on computer processing. I personally like this kind of laptop, because not only their batteries last a long time (my ideapad 100 lasts 10 hours, perfect for flights/travel), but because it is so limited, I won't even get tempted to go off do other things when I need to write (except that I have my phone with me). If you want to play a few indie titles, but a $500 llaptop. If you want to play AAA games on high settings, use your computer at home. If you want to play AAA games on high settings while being on the go, be ready to fork over a shit ton of money because of the form factor.

[@moahammad1mohammad]

Hey guys it's Mohammad, and I have a $150 PC, and here are five reasons why you SHOULDN'T buy one: 1. The price: Buying a $188 dollar PC may sound like a great steal for you... until you realize that its a outdated piece of s**t that can't run even the simplest PC games without lagging or crashing, and that building your own PC is literally a million times better for you than buying a ripoff $188 dollar paperweight. 2. The software: I'll be quick here. The $188 dollar PC doesn't do much, but it gets the Job done. Oh wait, I can't get any job done. Chrome? Lags like s**t. Gaming? Unless you wanna play 16bit games for the rest of your life, think again! Competitive gaming? Forget the competition, because you can't even compete with that piece of crap! Can't run PubG, can't run fortnite, can't run league of legends, can't run Dota 2, can't run cs:go, can't run any VR games, the list goes on! So if you like laggy games and crappy graphics, then you're a stupid idiot who knows nothing about PC gaming! Go back to consoles idiot! 3. The hardware: 4GB ram, 512 mb of integrated graphics, intel 2 core processor, and no SSD! Sure, that may sound pretty bad, and you're right! It's actually terrible! For $188 dollars your better off buying a cheap smartphone with better specs than that! The hardware is extraordinarily outdated, and there aren't even any USB 2.0 ports in it! What a f**king waste of time! Not only that, but your Motherboard is so bad you can't even upgrade your PC even if you wanted to! So you're literally doomed to use a piece of s**t for the rest of your life! And not only that, but the case for the computer literally sucks and is made out of cheap and shoddy material, and looks ugly as F**K! 4. The performance: IT DOESN'T EXIST. For $188 dollars you can't even run a f**king calculator app without the program lagging after using any number bigger than a short. It gets HORRIBLE frames on almost ANY software, even the desktop lags like S**T! As for framerates and cpu usage, literally any app you install will eat up half your RAM and 80% of your processing power, because there is so little to begin with! So you're literally stuck with a piece of crap that can't be overclocked, has horrible startup times, and lags and crashes at even basic multimedia software and rendering programs! 5. It's NOT practical: Unless you're completely insane or literally are an old fart that doesn't know how to press the power button, there is literally no practical reason to buy an OUTDATED, DYSFUNCTIONAL OBSOLETE PIECE OF S**T THAT YOU LITERALLY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ON. IT CAN'T RUN THE MOST DESIRED PROGRAMS IN ANY INDUSTRY SETTING (Photoshop, Sony Vegas, After Effects, Code Compilers, Game Engines, ect), IT CAN'T BE USED FOR GAMING, IT CAN'T BE USED FOR BITCOIN MINING, IT CAN'T BE USED FOR STREAMING, IT CAN'T BE USED FOR WATCHING 4K MOVIES OR VIDEOS, IT CAN'T BE USED FOR LITERALLY ANYTHING BUT STARTING FLAME WARS ONLINE OR MAKING S**TTY BLOG POSTS ON YOUR STUPID SOCIAL MEDIA SITE, BOTH OF WHICH LITERALLY NOBODY CARES ABOUT. WHY YOU PEOPLE STILL BUY THESE PIECES OF ABSOLUTE GARBAGE ARE BEYOND ME, BUT THE FACT THAT YOU LITERALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE BUYING IS PROBABLY AN INDICATOR THAT YOU PROBABLY DON'T NEED A COMPUTER IN THE FIRST PLACE. COMPUTERS LIKE THESE ARE THE REASON WHY I CAN'T GET A GOOD COMPUTER EVEN IF I WANTED TO, BECAUSE EVERYBODY THINKS SPENDING MORE THAN $300 DOLLARS ON A COMPUTER IS A WASTE OF MONEY, WHEN ITS LITERALLY THE BASELINE OF YOU WANNA RUN ANY CRAPPY UNOPTIMIZED PROGRAM ON YOUR COMPUTER IN THE FIRST PLACE. If you literally buy computers just to browse the internet and waste your time, you're literally just procrastinating. You're literally just wasting your time browsing the internet all day, and this PC is all you're going to get out of it. It's literally just a waste of money used to waste your time. So, I'm curious, what do you guys think of a ultra-s**tty computer like the stream? lemme know in the comments and I'll catch you guys never.

[@rogisolorzano5118]

I wish I would have read this comment 5 months ago. Lol. I really regret buying it. It sucks so much I literally can barely even get my homework done on it. Man

[@GMMilambar]

I got an earlier incarnation of one of these to take in to hospital with me. Didn't realise it only had ONE wifi antenna which made for a really weak wifi experience. But it was usable, until Windows pushed out a mandatory update. Then it became more sluggish than frozen molasses at the north pole. It now sits on my shelving, forgotten, gathering dust. Never to be used again.

[@anayajones2611]

We had these laptops in high school, except for they had 11.6 inch screens, I don’t recommend Hp streams at all. My mouse pad wore out the base a the bottom cracked, they scratch easily, and they aren’t always the fastest, to make things worst the school system here where I live has heavy restrictions on all school devices, (so they only thing we could do on them was browse the web and download files) which slows things down way worse. The only good thing I can say about the laptop is the battery life, which is actually really good, we used our laptops everyday, all day and the battery would never die til after I got home.

[@chairschair5633]

1. It’s the only thing I can afford

[@ectogamut]

HP seriously needs to stop selling the 32GB model since the FORCED WIN10 UPDATES cannot complete (and keep popping up daily) as they require too much freespace (I have nothing installed) oh and the Win10 update refuses to recognize external storage.

[@partysover6799]

Mr. Bigglesworth I have a Thinkpad with the exact same problem. Biggest app on my hd is MS Office 1gig. I have 5 gigs free and I'm struggling to free up space for the 8 gig update. Wtf man 😣

[@SeanMcKay]

The model is updated and you can now get it with 64gb at $199 at Staples. For what my wife would use it for - checking email, surfing the web, writing a few light documents, I would think this would be fine. And if not, I'll take it and turn it into a Linux machine. Can't be any worse than the old Gateway AIO I'm running linux on now! LOL

[@jg14gerhard_bar]

U pay for the shit experience in the form of not paying enough. These things work better if ur just on the cloud 😂😂😂..what u expecting even a 64GB ssd can end up costing a third of the price

[@siracha4956]

okay so i have the hp stream 14, and mine is only clocked at 1.6Ghz... did you make a mistake or is mine underclocked?

[@OrvilleCota]

32 GB of internal memory is not enough especially when it's mounted on the board. I am suffering with windows updates. Everytime I want to get the latest version of windows I have to format my pc.

[@LieutenantSneer]

I just can't understand why Microsoft allows laptops with only 32GB storage. The size of the Windows OS increases with time, to the point where it becomes impossible to download Windows Updates because there is no room left to store the update file.

[@arx117]

Silverfish agree, with just windows 10 Alone, already eat 20 GB storage thus only 12GB left.......

[@caprisun7695]

Get a MicroSD card, you can get an adapter and a 256 gb storage card for $50

i use this at my job for video conferences and data transfers and its GREAT. i wouldn't try to run any heavy programs off this thing because of the hardware limitations but it makes for a good business/travel laptop

For that money, better get a used Thinkpad or some other business laptop.

I bought the 11 inch version. I am typing this on it now. Its not a bad little laptop. great for tossing around or into a bag. it can play youtube or hulu/netflix smoothly and has great battery life. I am getting about 5-6 hours on 75% brightness running one click above battery saver.

After I watched this video, I am happy with my 500 dollar laptop

[@fwaster]

I have this laptop and it plays fortnite surprisingly well. I can get 12-29 FPS which is still playable if you know how to edit the games user settings file, change the resolution, quality, etc and you can get really playable frames. The only problem is the storage and lag spikes, the storage is not enough to play it on its own so I got a 130 go flash drive, which will last me a long time. On battle royale frame spikes are going to happen but on creative mode you will see little to no frame spikes because the creative worlds are basically servers which you are only in so it gives you a big FPS boost. I’m proud of the sweat and tears I put into making this laptop play fortnite better than the switch.

True. If you are using Chrome, good luck...I actually owned this thing briefly. It can hardly handle youtube. What a piece of trash.

funny that im replying to this comment with 15 tabs open on a 4gb laptop

[@jonasrugebregt343]

Interesting...

[@XtremeConditions]

Do you guys think I might be better off going for an Asus Vivobook 403NA (I think that's the older variant?) They go for like $100 more used on Ebay and I feel like it's going to way outperform the stream. It's for my mom, she definitely isnt a power user. But I feel like I want to get her the best thing I can for the money, and $100 more doesn't seem bad for double performance.

[@lostplshelp]

Seems like it might be a solid choice for school work, videos, flash games etc and if it supports a decent WiFi standard maybe even game streaming. I might pick one of these up once their next gen rolls around, should be a nice little machine!

[@splashh7061]

smashhawk This one is terrible don’t get this hot garbage

[@splashh7061]

smashhawk It cant even run roblox my school uses these and it’s actually the worst computer I’ve ever used

[@lostplshelp]

Splashh ROBLOX is unoptimised though... Hell, I tried getting it to run on my 970/FX-8350 machine for a younger family member and it still had frame drops, while ARK runs maxed with a (somewhat) stable 60 FPS.

[@itsjugu]

ROBLOX???? Tf

[@clintonleonard5187]

smashhawk you don't understand. This laptop is the biggest POS I ever owned. It can BARELY run youtube and another tab at the same time. Sometimes youtube is choppy. It can't do even the bare minimum. And it doesn't have enough internal memory to update so you get the notification all the time but can't update. Save yourself the headache.

[@derpycoach5260]

Reason 1: *BUY IT* 😂

[@prod.brosgo]

No dont buy it its shit

[@wwShadow7]

I had two hp stream 11's. One I got when they first came out in late 2014. One I got right after new years in 2016. They run linux fine. Although mouse and wifi quirks until mid-2015. I really loved the silent nature of them. And the HDMI out is so useful. Especially on the 11" version. I dropped the 2016 one in the first six months and it stopped working 18 months after purchase. My mom still uses the 2014 one for youtube, facebook, and light gaming. The ac wireless makes it really useful as a conference laptop, plus long battery life. I've since replaced them with quad core 8GB ram machines with AMD APUs for < $400 each, with relatively horrible battery life and noisy fans. But they were definitely nice off the shelf laptops at the time. One of the two usb ports is usb3, which is useful for faster storage options and gigabit ethernet.

[@av5hadow]

One with a decent graphics card and CPU. I don't recommend a laptop, though, because rendering takes a toll on a laptop.

[@jerome0929]

Lenovo or Asus. Intel core i5 or i7. With 8gb of ram minimum and if you can get one with solid state drive regardless if is 64gb, 128 or 256gb your laptop will run fast and smooth, no more waiting time on loading and booting your pc! But yeah prepare to spend anything from 600-1000 dlls

[@Brendo55]

If you really want to edit on a laptop, buy a MacBook, I myself have never liked them, but I do like Final Cut Pro a lot, and it’s heavily optimized for Mac os

[@siennabooks1649]

My old laptop is a HP (I have a Dell now) and it’s the same thing, it’s a stream. It’s a AMAZING laptop but if u wanna do YT gaming with like a TON of games, example: you can have the sims and a few expansion packs, but u cant fit a ton. This laptop has a lot of storage, but I got all the sims 3 expansion packs on it, and it loads slow now, and also is glitchy. That’s why I got a Dell now. But it’s totally worth it for videos, a small time gaming, and work like notes or documents.
