Small Chromebook

Not ideal investment
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Returned this promptly while I was in the store because Chromebook are a waste of money for students. Most institutions will tell you that is not a recommended device. The windows software and updates expire within a year so $200 for a temp computer, this isnt worth it

Grossly under-powered with limited space & updates
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Most Chromebooks have about 6 years of free updates. Google has limited this 1 to about 18 months or 25% of industry standard. Once the basic apps are installed, storage drops from 16 to 10 gigs. It is a dog.

basic
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's basic as it gets. I can't even install anti virus protection on it. I can't use my geek squad protection unless I take it to the store. My daughter just watches youtube on it... its for basic internet use

Not a good product
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do not like this chromebook. The charging piece is so tiny that it's about to break off in the computer. I just opened the box to use it in Jan. Do not waste your money. Buy a regular laptop or a different brand chromebook

The worst computer
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It isn’t compatible with anything. I know it’s only a 100 dollars but the computer stinks and I hate it. I want a refund. Best Buy told me I had 15 days to get a refund.
