I bought this on sale for $129. That's $130 off. So I can't really fault it much for that price. However my only complaint is the build quality. As in it is very plasticy. Other then that it is an awesome Chromebook. I get an easy 9-10 hours out of it. It has nice storage and I can run Linux via Crostini.

I love this chromebook. I don't need an additional upgrade in O/S just simple to stream TV, social media, pictures. I needed an inexpensive laptop which works great. Drawbacks- the sound is poor. You will definitely need a bluetooth speaker. The power adapter overheats in a power strip. The input is also a very small port which I can foresee breaking off, so I'd advise getting the insurance.

Good laptop, very convenient for travel, fast operating system as well

Ordered one during the Black Friday sale as a second device primarily for online classes. I was looking for something that would get the job done for a low price. So far, this has met and exceeded my expectations, knowing that I would be getting limited space, RAM, and cheaper components. So far, everything I need to do on the day to day works so well on this ChromeBook, I have stopped using my other computer for it and only use it for heavy projects (editing/filming/music production/etc). Using ChromeOS works out really well overall, considering I am in the Google ecosystem overall. Using Docs to write a term paper while having a YouTube Stream in the background has worked really well overall. Battery life is overall excellent, and gives me all the mileage I need when doing long school projects and I am moving locations constantly through the day. I actually REALLY like the throw and range of the keyboard. It is by no means perfect, but I found myself pleasantly surprised at my ability to maintain long typing sessions and accuracy with something so portable. It is light and extremely user friendly. However let me go through my Cons, as they may be a make/break for some. 1. The screen is horrible. Bad viewing angles and everything always looking dirty was a really hard transition from a much higher end computer. You can mitigate some of this if you plug into a monitor or TV via the HDMI onboard. It definitely will help, but cannot solve the problem when you take it out on the road with you. 2. Speakers are placed oddly and sound horrible. Putting the speakers on the base/underneath doesn't work well at all. It sounds horrible and extremely quiet. Not sure if they ran out of space, or why this design choice was made that way. Workaround is using a cheap bluetooth speaker or headphones with the ChromeBook. 3. The charging port does not consistently stay in and is extremely particular. I barely touch the port with the charger plugged in and it stops charging. It is really frustrating and leads to longer charge times because I have to constantly check to make sure it's charging, even with extremely minor shifts. 4. No Spotify support. This isn't a deal breaker as a smartphone is usually on me and can be used in it's place. It would just be a nice app/support for it if it wouldn't suffocate the RAM and system resources. Everything else about this ChromeBook meets expectations. I made sure when I researched that I had tempered expectations and that I was not going to try and do heavy duty work with this device. So far, it has exceeded in every way in all my uses, except one time when I had 9 tabs open in Chrome, which was my own fault knowing the 4GB of RAM and OS could not handle the workload. If you use the work arounds I provided, your at home experience should be adequate with the correct expectations. On the road use is primarily hindered by the screen quality more than anything else. I find myself reaching for this ChromeBook for day to day uses over my other computers available to me in the household. It has become the daily driver for simple tasks. If you don't ask too much of it, it'll work well and take you far in the basics. It has helped me keep my school tasks and assignments in one place, and helped maintain my sanity through most days.

Bought 2 of these for Christmas. 1 for my 7yr old and the other for my 12 yr old. It gets the job done. They did not need a full fleshed out laptop and at the $129 sale price during the Holiday sale, this was perfect. It is just the right size. The performance has been solid. A few of the features that stand out, is how quiet this is, since it's powered more like a tablet than a laptop, so I don't think there is a fan in it. Also, it is great how it powers up super quickly and the battery life is great as well. The kids have been using it for researching school assignments and streaming Netflix, youtube, etc. Very impressed so far and the fact that it is a Samsung product, makes me feel confident it will hold up.
