HP has finally unveiled their very own version of the 11.6″ netbook. The HP Mini 311 will also feature a more powerful graphics chip, an NVidia Ion LE.
11.6″ display screen @ 1366 x 768 pixels
Intel Atom N270 1.6GHz
NVidia Ion LE with up to 3,19MB memory
1GB DDR3 (max 2GB)
160GB SATA HDD
WiFi 802.11 b/g
HDMI port
5-in-1 card reader
6 cell Li-Ion battery
Will come pre-installed with Windows XP Home Edition SP3 and a DDR3 RAM is a welcome upgrade (the first netbook to have DDR3). It’s a bit heavy though at 3.22 pounds. Price starts at $399 so this is gonna be the cheapest in the 12-inch category (price could go up for upgraded the RAM and HDD capacity).
am i glad i waited before buying! but no bluetooth???!! that’s the deal killer for me.
well, according to HP’s tech specs, Bluetooth is optional… but that’s in the US. how about in the Philippines? How do i get bluetooth with this??
plss naman dumating kna sa pinas! inabutan na lang ng baha di pa rin dumarating… sana sa cebu available din!
i just called HP regarding this. when this 311 be available here in the philippines but according to them no news yet with availabilty. philippines is always being left behind. hmmm
also waiting for this. bka mag bago pa isip ng father ko huhuhu. But this is the best netbook around when it comes to graphic. Pwede maglaro ng ibang gamesa not too high end.
sa benchmarking, it was able to play Crysis 2 pero 12fps lang. siya lang ang netbook na nka play ng Crysis 2 kahit mabagal. Yung iba di possible to play. (playable fpas is 20fps)

I saw this available in Complink SM North – they are selling it for 29k with an external optical drive for free.
N280
1GB RAM
160 GB HDD
Nvidia Ion.
:)
Wish they sell one with 3GB and 250GB HDD or 320.
just got one from eHub eastwood for 28,990.. came with n280, bluetooth, wifi, 1gb ram, external drive, altec lansing speakers, etc..
I’m really planning to buy a notebook this december and based on what the 311 has it’s definitely the one for me and it also fits my budget. Boom and Camille, since you’ve already acquired one, do you have the contact #’s for CompLink and eHub respectively.
Thanks!

may availabe na kya nito dito bandang south?
las pinas, muntinlupa area,.
pinagpipilian ko to eh,
lenovo s12 0r hp mini 311
any suggestion guys for 11-12 inches netbooks below 30 thousand pesos?
@Erich – i didnt get one. I settled for the MSI N210. I read the reviews mas madami ok sa MSI210 eh.
It has AMD L335 – dual core. It’s a lot faster than my Acer which has Atom N280.
I checked the 311 in Complink SM North before getting the N210. its selling for 28990 or something. It comes with a lightscribe external optical drive, 250 GB HD, 1gb DD3.
While the N210 I purchased had:
250GB
2GB RAM DDR2
AMD Athlon NEO X2 L335
9 cel battery
- got it for 22995
I just ordered one online, but with Windows 7, 3GB DDR3 and 320GB hard drive…can’t wait to get it…
and it was only 30384…
damn nice screen.
i agree that the processor would really need an upgrade. the unit is quite big. i mean they could have cut some lines in the casing of hte lcd.
i feel this is quite a ‘super’ netbook but only in terms of the screen size. no idea if the chicklet kb will fit me but so far among all netbooks hp has had the best kb.
outfitting the unit with ddr3 on the other hand may get this machine kicking hard… and thus the same old n280 processor.
im not yet a full convert of windows 7 but it should have drivers for 7 already.
im still reading the reviews. keeping my fingers crossed. this may be my next netbook.
sir doug,
where did you order hp 311 with Windows 7
