Powered by the MediaTek MT8183 Octa-core processor and 11.6-inch HD Touch display, the new HP Chromebook 11a notebook brings the flexibility of digital learning into the hands of students so they can participate in interactive, personalised learning.
Weighing just 1 kg, the device is available on Flipkart in indigo blue colour with a matching keyboard deck.

The HP Chromebook 11a comes with Google One that provides 100GB of cloud storage, access to Google experts for a year, and other exclusive member benefits.
Google Assistant is also available on HP Chromebooks, along with access to more than three million apps in the Google Play Store.
"With the rapidly evolving education landscape in the country, it is imperative that we arm students and educators with the right tools and technology for remote and hybrid learning environments," said Vickram Bedi, Senior Director, Personal Systems, HP India Market.
