I have never owned a Chromebook. I bought this for work so that I could use it to conduct trainings with. It does what it needs to do. It is simple to use, and not a problem with it at all.

Looks durable. Screen display is better I thought it would be.

Happy so far – but this is a low-spec chromebook with a low-res screen, and warnings from other reviewers to be very gentle with it. I parted with little more than a hundred greenbacks, which I found entirely fair. It’s now going for much higher than that, which is a rip-off for this basic machine. We’ll see how long this review is embraced, by way of a social experiment!

I always used to say Chromebooks are terrible and I’d never have one. The company I currently work for uses Chromebooks almost exclusively so I decided to get one to become familiar with them. After changing it to the beta release channel and installing the Debian 11 upgrade it has changed my mind and become a welcome addition to my everyday gadgets. The screen is decent, it has great battery life, and the speakers are great. It sounds better than my $1200 gaming laptop. For productivity tasks and gaming I still use the gaming laptop but for everything else I’ve found myself grabbing the Chromebook instead.

The device I’ve got is manufactured in 2021 May. According to the Settings app the Auto Update Expiration (AUE) date is 2024 June. Performance is on par with the price, so don’t expect it to be a fairly fast device, but for general browsing, having a few tabs open, it is good enough. I am surprised by the keyboard, which is, frankly, quite good (although there is no keyboard backlight). I am satisfied with the purchase.

Perfect for my dad who just wanted to be able to browse the internet, watch YouTube videos, and zoom with his granddaughter. My dad is not gentle with his belongings and this has held up to his abuses
