I have been using this for my job and for studying for my CFP® Certification Exam!
Excellent for a Chromebook Plus
(Samsung Chromebook Plus, XE513C24-K01US // xe513c24-k01us)
1. It is a Chromebook (a really well built one) that has the Stylus built in for $409 (or so).
-- Allows for "Play Store" for downloading good apps right out of the box!
--It has a FULL CHROME BROWSER!
As a result, most web sites, web servers, and web applications are compatible and handled wonderfully by this Chromebook without any fuss or frustration!
-- Touchscreen, Display, Stylus, Speakers, OS, and Performance is snappy and well exceeded my expectations!
2. It has an expandable MicroSD slot (and Multi-media Card Reader)
Currently, Up to 256gb micro sd compatible
--->But I read somewhere it was designed in the hopes to take up to a 1TB or 2TB microSD card someday in the future.
3. Has 2 USB Type-C ports (Handles charging, USB devices like Mouse or Keyboard, 4K HDMI with adapter, and other USB type devices)
I couldn't be happier with these new ports!
4. Fast performance, Good RAM and Memory (high quality components)
5. Excellent Screen size and resolution
6. Good Speaker Sound from the device
7. Good keyboard
(keys are responsive and spaced out, and well placed )
It has a full QWERTY Keyboard!
8. When screen is flipped as a tablet, the Keyboard is shut off automatically so that you can just use the very nice Stylus or Touchscreen (or BOTH!)
Great Stylus too! Seriously LOVE IT!
9. It comes with a Great Stylus! Personally, I am in love with the stylus that came with this Chromebook Plus! I get perfect notes and screen performance from what is included!
Note: However, I did read somewhere this Chromebook Plus is compatible with the following S-pen!
Model: EJ-PT820BBEGUJ
SKU: 5754704
Note: If you ever want to "upgrade" to a luxury stylus!
Also, this S-pen upgrade would be "compatible with Tab Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Book" and I heard this should work for this device as well.

10. With some quick learning, I was impressed with how much work I actually can get done with this Chromebook Plus!
It has Chrome OS as its Operating System with "Google Play Store" built in and ready to go out of the box!
--------------------
--------------------
What it is not:
+ It is NOT a Windows OS or Mac OS system!
(I have a couple computers that do that in my house already.)
For me,
this device is perfect for attending meetings, taking notes, assisting with lectures, teaching, and just general upkeep and organization of my digital work from other devices (like my PCs, iPad, Smartphone, etc...)!
The stylus is fantastic!
Final Note:
It has a FULL CHROME BROWSER!
As a result, most web sites, web servers, and web applications are compatible and handled wonderfully by this Chromebook without any fuss or frustration!

I purchased this computer as a first computer for my 12 year old daughter. I went with this particular version because it is similar to devises that she uses at school. She was able to jump right in and begin using the computer with no issues right away. Very pleased!

This Chromebook is quick and efficient for browsing and running apps. I purchased it to replace an aging laptop and felt it would suffice for my limited needs.
I put it through its paces in many settings and it always connected to available wifi. Apps downloaded quickly. My only complaint was that it was very difficult to work with Word Docs and I finally gave up after saving through 3 cloud storages without success. If you just need a very high quality tablet and are willing to work with limited office productivity functionality it would be a great tool. I liked it, it just wasn't the right tool for me.

This is a great laptop. Super light. The aspect ratio is great. That screen is just phenomenal. I can't say enough about that screen. I bought it as my travel device. I use a 15 in MacBook at home. And I needed something light to use on the road. One small problem is that there is no keyboard lighting which is a bummer. But my only major gripe with this laptop is the track pad. It feels cheap and works terribly. I am spoiled using Mac track pads but my wife had a Chromebook pixel and that track pad is one of the best. This track pad just sucks. It's almost unusable. Which is why I ended up returning it.

Good device.
Only complaints are that there is extreme lag in most stylus apps - including Keep (use Squid). Some Android apps aren't optimized/ don't work as well with this.
Otherwise it's great.

My company recently switched to all G-Suite Services.
Being in sales I needed a touchscreen laptop that would be G-Suite compatible, start up quickly on the go with google apps and travel well.
For the price the Samsung Chromebook was the perfect solution.

If you're looking for something simple, lightning fast, and straight to the point, this computer is the best. I use it for paying bills, Netflix, and music. Everything works perfect on this computer with no frustrating lag times. The ONLY thing that keeps me from giving a 5-star review are the speakers. I have high standards for my speakers so, while the speakers are perfectly effective for listening to movies and Youtube, I want truly loud speakers. But like I said, my standards are high for speakers. Other than that, this computer is the best purchase I've ever made.

I've had my Chromebook Plus for a couple of weeks now and I truly love it. It does everything I need to do and is extremely portable so I can take it from room to room easily. The only thing I miss is a HOME key but that's no big deal. It's a great machine!!

It's been three years and everything has been working great. The screen is something else - gorgeous display. My professional photos look so good on this chromebook. Other CB's with the same res doesn't have such a crisp, bright display, so great job Samsung. I got this specifically for the touchscreen as my other chromebook didn't have this feature. Very pleased with this product.

Bought this for my son who now needs a PC/Tablet for school. Because the school uses Google Classroom, it works very well for him. There is definitely a learning curve and some differences from other OS's. But it does the job for half the price!

The Samsung Chromebook plus is a solid choice for light or medium duty computer work. The arm processor is stronger than I'd have initially thought, though it's still going to be a bottleneck if you tend to run a good number of tabs in your browser or do other taxing work. The screen is brilliant, the keyboard is decent (though a bit mushy) and the trackpad is acceptable.
Provided your use case fits it's limitations ( processor and chromeos), it's a solid choice.

If you're comfortable using the cloud for almost all your storage concerns you'll be fine. Loved the 2-in-one format. Only significant downside I could see is the thin material/metal used for the case. Access to Google Play Store is awesome.

I love the size and how convenient the pen was if I was using the touch screen. Mostly I love its connection to Google. The best thing yet!
