Pros and Cons

HP Chromebook 15

Strengths

A nice package for $379 is a great deal considering the features: aluminum build, IPS panel, number pad, backlit keys, touch screen, good processor, and decent storage.
The Pentium Gold chip handles general Chrome OS stuff well and will get around 20-22 thousand on Octane, making it suitable for most users.
The IPS panel is a plus, as it provides better color accuracy and viewing angles compared to TN panels.
Backlit keys are a nice touch, especially considering the affordable price of this device.
A very good processor is paired with decent storage options (128GB on the Core i3 model), making it suitable for most users' needs.
The Chromebook 15 has an aluminum build, which is rare at this price point and adds to its premium feel.

Weaknesses

Paying MSRP ($450) is not recommended due to better options available at that price range.
Only 4GB of RAM across all models might be a limitation for power users who like to have multiple tabs and apps open.
The processor only comes with 4GB of RAM, which can lead to performance issues when running multiple resource-intensive applications.
Pricing is volatile, and MSRP isn't always the asking price, making it difficult to know what you'll actually pay for this device.
There are better options available at similar or lower prices, especially considering the lack of notable upgrades in the Core i3 model compared to other devices.
The $550 price point is hard to recommend due to stiff competition from other Chromebooks that offer more features and performance at similar prices.
