HP Stream 11 Review

Asus astonished us a year ago with the EeeBook X205TA. The ultraportable was an outright deal, especially when you consider that incorporates one year of Microsoft Office365, which without anyone else is worth.

HP's Stream 11 offers basically the same arrangement, a free year of Office365, 1TB OneDrive online stockpiling and a satisfying configuration. Both machines are comparable on paper, yet there are a couple of key contrasts that issues one an exceptionally slight edge.

DESING AND BUILD

The Stream 11 is accessible in three hues in the UK: dark, pink and the blue model we had for survey. The cover is produced using one strong shading, yet the palm rest and console plate have a specked example and blue slope that, together, look strikingly like the skin of a tropical fish. It's maybe a bit toy-like for our tastes, yet whether its excessively showy for you will be down to individual inclination. Construct quality is extraordinary at the cost, with the case not offering path to our goads and endeavors to curve it. It's much heavier than the Asus EeeBook X205TA, however: the HP's 1.3kg is a discernible venture up from the 980g Asus.

The console is great, as well. It tops off the greater part of the console plate with little verges on the left and right, importance its sufficiently roomy for individuals with genuinely substantial hands. The white, island-style keys have a sensible measure of travel and felt sufficiently agreeable to sort on for augmented periods. Taps and swipes on the touchpad are responsive, as well, in spite of the fact that we had issues with the physical catches. On the off chance that you perform a physical click at the base center of the touchpad, you won't get a left or right-click in Windows; you don't get anything by any stretch of the imagination. This will be an issue for clients why should utilized utilizing the base of their touchpads for clicking and isn't something we see frequently, which is disappointing.

The Stream 11 one-ups the Asus EeeBook X205TA regarding integration with a USB3 port notwithstanding a second standard USB port. This is valuable for exchanging substantial records from USB stockpiling gadgets and actually living up to expectations straightforwardly off a fast USB hard plate, in spite of the fact that you'll be squandering your year of free Office365 in the event that you do this. There's additionally a full-measure HDMI port for uniting with a TV or outer screen.

SCREEN

The 1,366x768 pixel screen is usable in most sensible conditions, albeit working outside will be a battle as the backdrop illumination isn't brilliant. Shading scope is a small 62.1% of the sRGB shading array, which is as a matter of fact still better than the Asus, and difference is appraised at 325:1. Flat review edges are sensibly wide, and with a touch of pivot modification, the survey experience is consummately satisfactory for such a modest portable PC.
