Pros and Cons

HP Stream 14

Strengths

The overall design is great
Port selection is fantastic
The packaging, I should say, the shipping box didn't suck
The user experience within using the laptop wasn't horrible (a 4 out of 10)
With all that being said, guys, I appreciate every sub like and comment

Weaknesses

Windows four years of memory is not suitable for this laptop
The display is very reflective so keep that in mind if you intend to use it with any light source
The display causes eye strain because you have to have it at the perfect angle while looking at the laptop
You really can't do much on this laptop, four gigs of ram just chews up everything
It's not worth buying for anyone, get a Chromebook or wipe it and get Linux

Acer Aspire Go 15

Strengths

The Alder Lake chip in this laptop performs quite well
The battery life is decent with about 7-8 hours of use
The large case helps keep it cool and quiet
Acer's domestic presence means better support experience

Weaknesses

Performance not as good as older Ryzen processors
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module didn't work with Linux due to driver issues
Fan is always running and can be distracting
Price may not be worth the cost compared to more powerful devices
