hey I'm Sina editor just in you and today I'm taking the first look at the HP Officejet 150 mobile printer so believe it or not there's still a large demand for mobile printing traveling business professionals that need a device to output last minute presentations handouts and emails should invest in a device that they can take on a plane but the Officejet 150 isn't it the $400 price tag is mostly due to the added scanner and touchscreen but I actually recommend saving some cash and buying the previous model instead that's the Officejet 100 also reviewed here on CNET but before you make a judgement let's take a quick tour of the physical chassis the outside is nearly identical to its predecessor except when you raise the lid you'll see the 2.3 six inch touchscreen that folds flush into the machine there's a couple virtual navigation buttons on the left and right sides and there's also a few icons on the side that let you know about Bluetooth connections battery status and more did I mention there's a removable battery the included lithium ion battery attached to the back and HP claims that it can last 500 prints even with the battery installed the printer still remains a pretty manageable 6.4 pounds that's roughly the weight of an older laptop computer the printer itself has a 50 sheet input tray with a single sheet scanner in the center and you can connect it through a USB cable or wireless Bluetooth so in terms of performance you're really not going to see super speeds or really great image quality due to the two ink cartridge Bay but I do suspect that users are willing to sacrifice Portability and convenience for resolution anyway so all that said you can still get almost all the same functions out of the previous model with the exception of the touchscreen and the scanner if all you're looking to do is print on the go and would rather not drop 500 bucks you can get the Officejet 100 for much less you can read more details about this printer and the 100 in my review on cnet.com but that's going to do it for me I'm Justin you you just took a first look at the HP Officejet mobile 150
