    I love chromebooks. Everything transferred from my phone including passwords. Great for the price. Keyboard doesn't light up at night which is the only drawback.

    I wanted a new laptop and decided to go with a Chromebook. I have always used Windows and this was a nice little change. I decided on a Chromebook since I use Google for everything. There are a few key shortcuts one needs to learn when using a Chromebook lol but other than that it's been great! I enjoy using it for basic uses: web surfing, online shopping, etc.

    We spent a bit researching options in the lower price points for our son. We had tried refurbished machines in the past and weren't pleased with them - sticky keys, etc. This is a Christmas gift so time will tell if if was time well-spent. Best Buy had far more options than other retailers.

    To be fair, I knew nothing about Chromebook. My friend recommended it to me however it doesn’t work with any of the programs I use. I like how fast it runs, but it does me no good if I can’t use the programs I need on it. Just do your research before buying.

    Terrible. Disappointing. -Laptop wifi didn’t work out of the box. Had to send it back to get fixed and wait for it to come back for over a month -Chrome OS is worthless -Slow -Can’t run multiple applications or literally do anything in multiples -Slowww -Waste of my time and money and a terrible experience all the way around unfortunately -Save yourself the misery I went (and am currently still going) through and pay a few extra dollars for something with more RAM, more SSD and a better operating system

    poor spellcheck

    Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Biggest issue was that spell check did not work in several apps. Would underline the misspelled words, but not give the correct spelling. Also several of the organizations that I have apps for did not have them for Chromebook so that eliminated one benefit of using a Chromebook. Decided that a computer would work better for me even though I really won't use the vast number of functions available.
