    I purchased this item when I had to put my laptop in for service. Had planned on returning it when I got my laptop back. Decided to keep it. While it doesn't have Windows it does what I need to do(web surfing, emails, spreadsheets and documents). Bang for the buck? Absolutely!!

    Remote learning on a dime

    We had to purchase two of these chrome books on short notice when school went remote last year. They have been remarkably durable and easy to use for our kids. One star off because after only about three months the charging cable on both devices didn’t connect consistently. It became I’m possible the get a charge from one of the cords and difficult to keep the connection for power if using the device while charging. It has to remain still once the connection is made in order to keep it charging. Lately, we haven’t been able to charge from either cord at all. We could probably request a replacement but I haven’t done that yet. It was good enough for the price but I had hoped they would last a little longer.

    This is a neat little ARM-based 32-bit Chromebook. For most users, this will only be noticeable because the battery life is great and the price is reasonably low. With Android app availability, this platform seems to fit seamlessly in with the Google platform. As a developer, I've learned that the builtin Linux support on ARM is not quite as robust as with X86 based chromebooks. That's not a big deal, but something to be aware of. Build quality seems identical to HP and Dell chromebooks that my kids have from school. The keyboard is okay, which is a first-order criteria for me. Screen quality is really pretty poor. I consider both lack of touch and a matte surface perfectly fine. But wow, this screen is straight from 2005. Brightness and contrast are poor. Viewing angles are abysmal. Don't buy this for the screen. Overall this hits just about all the right points for a super-affordable chromebook companion.

    I bought this Chromebook for writing purposes. I like the size and weight. I'm having an issue with it that it thinks I'm on a public internet connection when I'm at home and keeps warning me about security risks. I'm still not sure what's going on with that.

    Purchased this after CA closed down the schools due to COVID. My 3rd grader was able to pick it up and use it right away. We love it and I am convinced it will last us for a while to come. Glad we did get it due to schools possibly being remote in the future as well. Great product!
