HP has hit a sweet spot with its budget Stream laptops. Introduced two years ago, the Stream series was built for cloud computing and its laptops packaged with basic specifications, a large battery, and sleek design, all at a pretty affordable price tag between $199 to $250.
After Stream 11 and 13, HP has now introduced Stream 14, which as the name suggests, is a 14-inch laptop starting at $219 (roughly Rs. 14,600) and is expected to go on sale from September 7.
The Stream 14 will take advantage of some of the improved specs the other Streams will also receive, such as dual-antenna 802.11ac Wi-Fi, a new Intel Celeron N3060 processor, and improved battery life (over 10 hours for the Stream 11 and 14).
While 4 gigs of RAM are included, the Stream laptops still only include 32GB of built-in storage, which doesn't go as far as on a Chrome book given the larger footprint of Windows.
