In real-world testing, the HP 14 Laptop averaged 25 frames per second on the Dirt 3 benchmark, stopping short of the 28-fps category average, not to mention the 30-fps playable threshold. However, the HP 14 Laptop fell behind the VivoBook Flip's Intel HD 615 (51,586) as well as the Intel UHD 620 GPU in the Aspire E 15 (63,817) and the Spin 3 (70,127). The HP 14 Laptop's Intel UHD 620 GPU scored 39,950 on the 3DMark Ice Storm Unlimited graphics benchmark, surpassing the average budget laptop (34,667).
The category average was only 53 MBps, but the VivoBook Flip's 64GB eMMC (29 MBps) and the 1TB HDD in the Aspire E 15 (34 MBps) and the Spin 3 (29 MBps) couldn't even match that. HP's 128GB SSD took 1 minute to copy 4.97GB of data, which translates to 85 megabytes per second, and while that may seem slow, it actually crushes the competition. Packed with the same CPU as the HP 14 Laptop, the Aspire E 15 and Spin 3 had much better averages of 7,871 and 8,543, respectively. On the Geekbench 4.1 overall performance test, the HP 14 Laptop scored 6,901, whizzing past the average budget laptop (5,189) as well as the VivoBook Flip's Core m3-7Y30 CPU (5,696). The font on the keys is reminiscent of HP's premium Spectre x360 line.
The HP 14 Laptop's keyboard is surprisingly clicky and pleasant to type on it even has backlighting, which is rare for a budget laptop.

To be fair, the Spin 3 (70%) and VivoBook Flip (69%) didn't make the average either. The HP 14 Laptop's panel covered 62% of the sRGB color gamut, matching the Aspire E 15's score and falling behind the budget laptop average (79%). While the HP 14 Laptop's 14-inch display isn't very bright or colorful, its glossy screen and leveled-out contrast make the viewing experience much better than what your average budget laptop provides. However, the screen didn't look washed out, meaning it captured whites quite well. The orangish explosions set in the grassy field were dull, and the panel itself was so dim that I couldn't see the surroundings in the forest. In the trailer for Taken 3 - I mean, Angel Has Fallen - I could see every strand of hair in Nick Nolte's white beard.
