The HP Chromebook 14a-ne0013dx touchpad is a crucial component of device functionality and physical communication between the user and the device screen. The touchpad controls the mouse and is a tool for clicking and selecting items on the device screen. If sufficient damage has occurred, the touchpad will not respond to any movements or “click” properly, and may result in the need for a replacement.
