Fantastic Chromebook!

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:PriceI am new to the Chromebook world but have lots of laptop experience with windows. I made the leap when I seen the price tag. I simply asked myself could I do what I need to do on a Chromebook? It's just that simple. I purchased a flash drive and that was it. For under $200 you will get almost everything you need and for some of us, it IS everything we need. My company is switching over to Chromebooks and we have about 4,000 employees. It is cost effective and production will probably improve since our company uses chrome with all the Google stuff. Thanks BB & Acer.

Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5Pros mentioned:DisplayBought for my 5th grader as a replacement for his 10” Chromebook that has since been passed down to his younger brother. Big, bright 15” display and ready to rock right out of the box. It’s perfect for distance learning and just enough for his needs for the next couple years. Best bang for your buck.

Really like it!!
|Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.Features
Quality4 out of 5Value4 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5Really like it so far. If you like Chrome or Google Chrome it's really nice. Works just like if downloaded and used on Windows Laptop. I think there isn't a lag when surfing, but all depends on what someone would be using for. I chose to go this route after my Windows laptop took a crash as I was always downloading Chrome to use instead of Internet Explorer.

Good little book but...
|Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Features
Quality3 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use2 out of 5Cons mentioned:TrackpadI bought it so I could work on my google docs and writing without being distracted by other things. It works pretty good, but it has crashed once all ready. It appears to crash when you click along the edge of the screen(?) None of the apps have a scroll bars down the side so you NEED to purchase a mouse to go with this otherwise you can not scroll through anything. With a mouse and not clicking on the edge, the chrome book works for what I need it for and for a $100 cyber Monday deal, it's not a bad buy.

Q: QuestionDoes this have Windows 10 and is it suitable for a student?
Asked by Jer.
- A:Answer Chromebooks are different from Windows laptop products in that they are designed to be used primarily while connected to the Internet, with most applications and documents living in the cloud. Because of this they don’t have much for on board storage but they also are not expensive either. This makes them excellent for students. Chromebooks run off apps like an Android phone or tablet so you cannot download and install applications or .exe files. If you need to use third party software applications that must be installed on the computer, a Chromebook is likely not for you, where a Windows laptop would suit you better.
