Asus Chromebook Plus
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ASUS CX14 Chromebook Plus is a fantastic choice for anyone who needs a reliable, snappy machine for daily productivity, as the Intel Core 3 processor and 8GB of memory handle multitasking effortlessly. Its 14" FHD screen is crisp and clear, providing plenty of real estate for documents and video calls, while the integration of Google AI tools makes photo editing and writing tasks much more intuitive. The Misty Grey finish looks professional and sleek on a lightweight frame that is easy to carry between meetings, and with a battery that lasts through a full workday, it is a high-performance win for anyone on the move

Great purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went in needing a new laptop because my other one was acting up and starting to slow down. Saw this one online, and was able to buy it for about $215 as a product that had been returned. Runs great and the battery life is much longer than my other laptop's. I still haven't figured out all the features yet, but so far, it's definitely one of the best purchases I've made.

Not perfect but impressed so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to work well but havent gone through paces yet. I bought this on black friday but dont really need it until january so cant comment on battery life etc. I did have a few failures during setup but nothing since. Suspecting a software thing that cleared during the initial updates but continuing to monitor. I can say it is very fast. Screen looks good. Keyboard doesnt feel great and trackpad is iffy. But for the sale i got a higher end chromebook for an entry level price. Also i gotta say chrome OS has come a long way. This is my third but the first that is useful for more than a web browser. Googled AI tools legitimately blew me away tinkering with them

Great machine, but still needs MS software
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems like a high quality build. smooth performance, lightweight, and if you are in the Google/Android ecosystem, them makes great sense and ease of use. Moving away from the MS office ecosystem has been challenging

Battery only lasts for about 4 hours
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don't know if I got a lemon but I purchased this Chromebook for 2 reasons. I wanted one with a long battery life and I like to leave a lot of tabs open so this was supposed to fix any delays I experience from slower computers. Both of those desires were not accomplished by buying this laptop. The battery lasts only about 4 hours and the screen freezes often (the cursor disappears and shows up about 10 seconds later) The volume could be better, loud isn't always loud enough.

Great laptop! Poor Google AI perk marketing
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This laptop is great for what its purpose is. Streaming. Browsing. Battery life is good on normal performance but if you don’t mind power saving mode you around 8-10 hrs. It also docks so I can use two external monitors since it has USBc. That is a benefit I wasn’t expecting. The reason for 4 stars is that Best Buy markets this with 12 months free of Google AI Pro. However, this laptop is not listed by Google as having the perk. It wasn’t the main reason for purchase but still an annoyance as it would have been a nice perk.

Open Box Excellent Chromebook
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Chromebook was received shipped and well packaged. Its in great shape and looked brand new, I couldn't tell it was an open box. Ok I am not a gamer so cant advise regarding gaming performance with this Chromebook... The only issue I have is setting up printer, my Brother Inkjet printer is allegedly compatible with Chromeboks but the Asus has a smaller subset of printers apparently that will work, so it appears that in near future we may change our printer out but in the interim we can print from my Samsung Android phone. The speakers arent that great, so you may want to go straight headphone/ear bud scenario. The display is fantastic, I have a lighted keyboard and mouse setup through a universal USB expander, it works fine. The extra memory is good, I have yet to impinge on available memory with different applications open and the integration with Samsung Android phone appears to be seamless. I can also send and receive chat messages whilst working on the Chromebook although I think its a functionality of the newer Chrome OS. I have received many updates which to me is fine as security updates and bug fixes in Chrome world are welcome in this day and age. Overall its a highly recommended product. Bestbuy continues to deliver well with Open Box Items in Excellent condition.

Good display, responsive
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced an older Lenovo Chromebook with this. Build quality/sturdiness seems very good, the non-glare display is very nice, the computer is very responsive. It would have been nice if it had been a touch screen too, but I can live without that as I primarily use a mouse.

Good Small Little Laptop for Media Consumption

nothing special
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My review of the newest keyboard layout is a mixed bag. There are aspects I like and aspects I don't. I like the addition of the "G" key, a third modifier that allows for easier configuration of customized shortcuts. However, I hate the new design of the arrow keys. I need that space between the right shift and left and right arrows to feel the keys on the keyboard. Other than keyboard, the rest is mundane, common chromebook. With full linux container and android app support, manufactures must consider affordable chromebooks with 16GB RAM, sad to see that's not happening yet. Other than the keyboard, the rest of the CX14 is mundane and nothing special, a very common Chromebook. However, with full Linux container and Android app support, manufacturers must consider a more affordable Chromebook with 16GB of RAM. It’s sad to see that this isn’t happening yet.

Solid budget Chromebook for high schoolers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have teenagers who need Chromebooks for school. In past experience, the Chromebooks usually last about 2 years and then end up getting destroyed in a backback or something, so I am focused on something that is a good price point where I won't be upset to replace it in two years. (No fault of the Chromebook.) I have only had this a few days, but it seems totally fine. The budget Chromebook specs have increased a bit in the past couple of years (8GB vs 4GB RAM), so it seems noticeably faster than the one it was replacing. Thumbs up so far. Bought this for the older kid and will probably end up getting another one for the second kid going into 9th grade. 14" seems like the sweet spot of small enough to fit in a backpack without being uncomfortably small to use. Ratings are based on price - it's not an expensive gaming laptop, but seems totally competent for doing school work in the Google ecosystem using Google Docs, Drive, etc.
