Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

Glad to hear you have got the best HP Chromebook and want to know a compatible Stylus for this HP Chromebook x360 14 inch 14c-cc0000 IDS Base Model. 

There are no active stylus compatible with this device. However, you can use any and all passive stylus with the Chromebook without any issues whatsoever.

Non-HP branded pens and styluses can be classified as either an active stylus or passive stylus:

• An active stylus (also known as a digital stylus) uses a digitizer built into the screen to allow communication between the touch screen and the pen. An active stylus might support many or all of the functions supported by a mouse, such as right-click, hover, and more. Many active stylus models can block stray marks from your hand resting on the screen or the sweep of your palm while writing so that the screen only registers marks made by the pen.

  Non-HP branded active styluses are not supported on HP computers and might not be compatible.

• A passive stylus (also known as a capacitive stylus) functions the same as your finger on the screen. Passive styluses do not require batteries, and they work on any touchscreen device.

  While the non-HP branded passive stylus is not supported by HP, most will work with HP touchscreen computers and tablets.

If you have any other concerns or queries, feel free to get back to me and I'll be happy to help.

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
