- 2-cell battery
- Power adapter
Q: In tablet mode does your hand mess with the keyboard while holding/using it?
A: No, the physical keyboard is disabled when the screen is flipped around into tablet mode.
A: This model unit C100PA-RBRKT07 is a newer version of C100PA series.
A: I got my wife this Chromebook for Christmas after months of researching it. We both have iPhones and a very old MacBook that is on its last leg. We aren't in the budget for another MacBook anytime soon, but after having this little ASUS Flip for a few weeks, I don't know that we'll ever get another expensive computer. We love it, and I'm probably gonna get one for myself. You need to have a Gmail account in order to be able to use this, or any Chromebook. If email, internet, and occasional office suite documents/projects is all you do, this may be the product for you. You will not be able to back up your Apple devices to a Chromebook, so if you don't have a primary computer that you can back up to, I would recommend increasing your iCould storage and backing up to the cloud. But to your other question about sending and receiving documents/PDFs between devices... no problem. Google Docs handles just about anything you might have done in Word... but with Android Apps on the Chromebook, you can even download the Microsoft Suite apps for Word, Xcel, etc. There's also another great app called Pushbullet that you can install on your iPhone and your Chromebook and send/receive files across platforms that way. We use it all the time. This is a great device. It's built well. It's blazing fast. It just works. If you get one, pay the extra $30-$50 for the 4gb version, you won't regret it. Hope this helps.
Q: Does this have a front and back camera?
A: There is a front camera but no back / rear camera on the lid. Great Chromebook. I love ASUS quality. Versatile machine. I asked Best Buy rep for her recommendation, and I've not been disappointed.
Q: Is this labtop good for school work (Microsoft)
A: Yes and no. If your school uses Google Docs then you won't have an issue. If you need straight Microsoft Office then not so much. You have the option of both, but one thing to keep in mind is that any Microsoft Office package is exclusive to Macos and Windows. These devices have the Google Play Store so you can download the Android version of Word, Excel, Powerpoint, and Onenote. You can also use the web version via the Microsoft website. Hope this information helps!
Q: Does this laptop work with a stylus?
A: yes it does.
A: If your wireless printer supports Google Could Print, then it'll work with a Chromebook. Google have a list of "Cloud Ready" printers, so you can see if your printer is listed here: https://www.google.com/cloudprint/learn/printers.html. If you don't have a cloud ready printer, but you do have an old computer (which has the Chrome browser on it) that you don't mind leaving switched on and connected to the printer, you can also print through your old computer to the printer by setting it up as a "Classic Printer" - see explanation of how to do that here: https://support.google.com/cloudprint/answer/1686197?hl=en.
Q: Will this Chromebook run the Google Play Store? I know the previous version will.
A: Yes, this product run Google play store.
