The HP Chromebook 14 14a-na0031wm is a bestselling refurbished Chromebook that received positive reviews for its durable design, excellent battery life, and its ease of use. It also comes with a full size backlit keyboard that most found satisfying to use. However, not all users were aware that is a refurbished device and thought they were purchasing a new laptop. Additionally, the 1366 x 768 display lacks vibrancy, and, while the laptop is designed to carry out basic tasks comfortably, it will struggle when pushed beyond simple task handling due to its low end specs. If you’re on a tight budget and looking for an everyday laptop that cruises through basic tasks, then look no further than HP’s refurbished Chromebook 14 budget killer.

Want an inexpensive Chromebook with a large display? The HP Chromebook 14 (reviewed at $248) is a solid choice. A significant upgrade over the AMD model, the Intel version of the Chromebook 14 lasts all day on a charge and has a comfortable keyboard. The notebook also has a sleek white design and the 1080p display is a luxury at this price point. While other similarly priced Chromebooks offer better performance, the Chromebook 14 is a good all-rounder for basic tasks. It's even one of the best laptops under $300.
