There’s a traditional USB port and a USB-C port on both the left and right sides, and the HP Chromebook 14 can charge from either USB-C port. You’ll find 4GB of RAM and 32GB of eMMC storage, which can be expanded via the microSD card slot. The other specs are your standard fare for Chrome OS devices, but make for a well-rounded package. Despite the option for a more powerful processor and graphics chip, the 14″ Chromebook will only offer two options for display resolution - 1366×768 (no touch) and 1920×1080 (touchscreen). The HP Chromebook 14 will be available with either an AMD A4 or A6 processor, backed by an integrated AMD Radeon R4 or R5 graphics chip respectively. With Google seemingly skipping Intel’s Cannon Lake processors, and Intel’s missing deadlines potentially causing Google to rework the Pixel Slate, AMD is in prime position to shake up the world of Chrome OS.Īs reported by Laptop Mag (now removed), who also got hands-on time with the device, HP will be the first OEM to release a Chromebook powered by a processor from AMD. Now, it seems AMD is getting into the game with the latest HP Chromebook 14, being demoed at CES 2019. Intel and ARM have been your only two options for a processor on a Chromebook since Chrome OS first launched.
