Updated on June 24, 2026

Two configurations share the HP Chromebook x360 14b (2024) name. The standard model runs an Intel Processor N100, the Chromebook Plus model runs an Intel Core i3-N305, and both list somewhere between $399.99 and $599.99. They share the Sky Blue finish, the 360-degree convertible hinge, and Chrome OS support through June 2033. A student or a family buyer is choosing between the two on chip, memory, and screen.

One 3.32-pound convertible body, two different sets of internals

Both variants ship in the same Sky Blue plastic shell, which holds the weight to 3.32 pounds (1.42kg for the Plus) and stays rigid enough for daily carrying, though it gives under a firm grip from underneath. At 12.72 x 8.28 x 0.81 inches, the body is thin enough to slide into a backpack alongside books without adding a noticeable brick to the load.

The 14-inch touchscreens use edge-to-edge glass with micro-edge bezels. The standard model’s IPS panel runs at 1366x768, enough for browsing, documents, and video. The Plus panel is 1920x1080, with sharper text and room for two windows side by side. Both panels are matte, so reflections and fingerprints stay manageable, and both peak at 250 nits: comfortable indoors, hard to read in direct sunlight.

The standard model’s Intel Processor N100 (4-core) handles typical ChromeOS workloads. The Plus build’s Intel Core i3-N305 (8-core, up to 3.8GHz Turbo Boost) has twice the cores, which shows in heavy multitasking and Android games. The Plus model also doubles the RAM to 8GB LPDDR5 and upgrades storage to 128GB UFS, which offers faster read/write speeds than the standard model’s 64GB eMMC.

Reviewer Insights

Related Videos

Both video reviews cover the Chromebook Plus variant. MergeDroid’s unboxing highlights the software support window through June 2033, providing several years of Chrome OS updates. However, the review also identifies build quality concerns, specifically that the plastic chassis exhibits flex when gripping from the bottom, which can trigger unintended trackpad clicks.

Tailor Made Tech’s review positions the Chromebook Plus as a compelling iPad alternative at its $599.99 MSRP. The review demonstrates smooth gaming performance with titles like Solar Smash and Minecraft, while noting that the device stays cool and quiet during extended use. The 360-degree hinge receives praise for being “really sturdy” and reliable for frequent mode switching between laptop, tent, stand, and tablet configurations. Both reviewers agree that the keyboard, while functional, features shallow key travel that takes some adjustment.

The Chromebook Plus certification unlocks Google’s enhanced AI features, including Google Gemini integration, “Help Me Write” AI assistant in Chrome, and Magic Eraser photo editing in Google Photos. Those tools ship only on certified machines, so the standard model does without them.

Customer Reviews

Across 34 ratings on Amazon, the HP Chromebook x360 14b (2024) averages 4.7 stars, with 81 percent of reviewers leaving five stars. Several of the positive write-ups describe the listing and the delivery more than long-term use: a verified buyer who goes by Plain Spoken called it “absolutely Like new” and a “Great value for for this lap top,” and a few short notes report buying it as a gift that the recipient was happy with. Reviewers in other markets single out the convertible design; a verified buyer named Thiara Cristina wrote that the 360-degree screen and touch display make watching videos and films much better.

The distribution is not uniformly glowing, though. About 2 percent of ratings sit at one star, and the most concrete complaints come from buyers who used the keyboard. A verified three-star reviewer, Andrew Ko, reported “there is a Problem with the ‘Downward Key’ on the Key Board,” describing it as slanting to the right and hard to press down. An unverified one-star reviewer, Texfan1996, was blunter, writing “This computer is terrible; unless you only need 1 screen at a time and have no need to scroll.” Worth knowing if you plan to multitask or type a lot.

The Plus spends its extra money on the screen and the chip

The standard model at $399.99 MSRP is the pick when the lowest upfront cost decides it and the work stays at web browsing, document editing, and video. Its N100 and 4GB of memory cope with that, and the HD panel is the compromise you accept in return.

At $599.99 MSRP, the Chromebook Plus buys the Full HD panel, the 8-core chip, twice the memory, the backlit keyboard, and Google’s AI features. Both configurations carry the same June 2033 Auto Update Expiration date, so the update window is identical whichever one you buy.

The Chromebook Comparison Chart lines both configurations up against other current models by screen, chip, and update window.
