Exterior Overview
Front View: The device has a very minimalist approach to it and is very light weight. The body is completely finished in plastic.

There is just a Hp logo on the lid, enhancing the overall look.

Interior Overview
Screen & webcam: The lid opens to reveal the 14-inch 1080p display surrounded by narrow bezels on all sides except the bottom which houses the Hp logo. Overall the hinge is decent but there is a bit of wobble while typing fast(pretty minor).
The Hp laptop is also equipped with a 720p webcam which is decent enough and the microphone also performs similar to others in this range.
Keyboard & Trackpad: The same build is also continued within. Beneath the display there is the keyboard which has decent typing experience with backlight enabled. The trackpad is also decent in size and the experience is also pretty good and also supports every windows gesture. There is a bit of keyboard flex but overall pretty well built. Just above the keyboard there is the speaker grille which has decent sound output.
Display, Sound & Software
Sound: The front-firing speakers do produce decent sound as expected but nothing special or overwhelming.
Software: The laptop also comes pre-loaded with Windows 11 home and Microsoft home and office 2019 for lifetime.
Performance
The laptop is powered by 11th-gen Intel Core i3-1115G4 which has a top clock-speed of-4.1 GHz. It also has 2 cores and 4 threads architecture.In real life,
We also used the device for a few days and it can very easily handle simple tasks like web- browsing and also is benefited by the 8 GB of memory. Overall in normal Power-Point, Words , Excel usage it just flies. We also ran a few of the games which was certainly playable but not quiet enjoyable.
Overall it is a decent device and can certainly handle all basic tasks and also can do a bit of photo-editing . You can also do basic 2-D Auto-cad easily so college students can check it.
Verdict
The laptop is in the range of Rs 45,000-50,000, link of the best deal is given below. For the price is offers decent value for money the only drawbacks is the lack of fingerprint sensor. Overall if you are in the market for a LTE enabled laptop then it is the cheapest and only option.
But it have plenty of good stuffs to make up for it like the performance is very smooth , the overall feel and build is also impressive. Overall the laptop is certainly justifies it's asking price.
