    At this price point it's a perfect laptop/Chromebook. It's fast enough and I'm able to do all my small task on it. Brightness isn't great but it's what you get with a low budget friendly laptop.

    Perfect Budget Chromebook for Schoolwork and Every

    picked up two of these Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go laptops for my younger girls to handle their school assignments, and they've been a fantastic choice so far. The lightweight design makes it easy for them to carry around the house or to class without any hassle. The 14-inch LED screen is bright and clear, great for reading online textbooks, watching educational videos, or working on Google Docs. Performance is smooth for basic tasks. The Intel Celeron processor and 4GB RAM handle web browsing, streaming, and apps like Zoom for virtual classes without lagging. With 128GB storage, there's plenty of space for files and downloads, and Chrome OS updates automatically, keeping everything secure and simple. Battery life lasts through a full school day, which is a big plus for busy schedules. Compared to pricier options, this one offers solid build quality and reliability at an affordable price. It's ideal for students, and I'd recommend it to parents looking for a dependable device. Thanks, Best Buy, for this great deal!

    Solid work/school laptop. very easy to use, just don't expect to play games on it past tankii or similar low res games. it does everything I need it for. very light, very fast. the battery lasts me all day while watching videos/listening to audio in background. I haven't pushed the boundaries of it, but you can run linex, therefore you'll be able to run other programs you normally wouldn't be able to run on a Chromebook. the screen is super nice, even in direct sunlight. speakers are on the bottom, so you might keep that in mind.

    I just wanted a computer for browsing/technical school. So far it has worked perfectly. It's lightweight and very durable (I've only had it a few weeks, but I've already dropped it a few times). Very fast, and I like the anti-glare screen. I compared this to a few other options from different vendors and for the price point/features, this is a pretty good deal. The battery lasts, it connects to WiFi easily, and all the apps are very fast with little to no buffering. Highly recommend for students/anyone looking for a cheap and affordable option.

    I had to get a laptop for my teen to use for school work. Shes in high school and needed something reliable. This laptop is easy to use and battery life is great. She sometimes uses it to watch movies and works just as great.

    Good all around laptop. It's super slim, ultra light and even as configured, suprisingly snappy performance. Of course, the Snapdragon and other chip options as well as more ram will always improve things, but for a quick web browser and home officer, nice cost-effective solution.

    The computer is great for the price. The chromebook OS is somewhat limiting compared to a Windiows or Apple computer. The color saturation and brightness of the screen is poor compared to more expensive laptops, and the battery life is just average. I mainly bought this as a backup computer. It woukd be a good choice for a teen or for soneone that doesn't use a computer a lot. Samsung makes high quality laptops, so i expect it to last a long time.

      Greetings Tanya, thanks for providing us with detailed feedback regarding your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go. We appreciate your constructive input as we improve our product line. To improve display performance, increase brightness using the top-row keyboard keys, disable battery saver to boost screen brightness, or adjust the color temperature and turn off "Night Light" in Settings > Device > Displays. Poor battery life on the your Chromebook Go is typically caused by high screen brightness, excessive background apps, or enabled, power-hungry features. To improve it, reduce screen brightness, turn off the keyboard backlight, enable "Battery Saver" mode, and close unused apps or tabs. Feel free to check out, "Samsung Chromebook performance is lagging" to help resolve what you may be experiencing. If you have any questions for us or if you would like any further assistance afterward, please do not hesitate to each out to Support. Thank you for being a cherished Samsung customer. - Debra Samsung
