Samsung - Chromebook Plus 2-in-1 12.3" Touch Screen Chromebook - 4GB memory - 32GB eMMC Flash Memory - Platinum Silver

I got mine 2 days early shipped from Best Buy. I've been looking to replace my Samsung Tab Pro 12.2" tablet and this seemed perfect as it can be folded over to be a tablet, but can also be used like a regular laptop. Plus it runs Chrome and Android apps. So far I'm very pleased. Battery life is good, 7 to 9 hours I would say. The keyboard works well, although it is somewhat mushy and the delete key is too small so I often press = by mistake. The trackpad works well for two finger scrolling and you can enable "tap and drag" in Accessibility settings. Two finger scrolling does have a bit of "bounce back" when you take you fingers off it, which is annoying. The screen is really good and I only need to put it on 1/2 brightness. The aspect ration is 3:2 which is perfect for browsing and using as a tablet. The touchscreen works very well. I love that I don't need a special case to prop it up; the 360 degree hinge allows you to situate the screen at whatever angle you choose. Chrome is fast and responsive. I have over 15 tabs in 4 windows open and performance is fine. One trick you can use is to press the "search" and "esc" keys to see the task manager, which will tell you which tabs are using the most CPU. I found that Amazon often uses a lot of CPU when it's tab is visible. Chrome runs twice as fast (9500 vs 4500) as on the Note / Tab Pro tablet (see "Octane" benchmark image). Android apps generally work pretty well. However often I find that the Chrome web version of the app is better. For instance Google Maps is much better on Chrome. Google Inbox seems faster on the app version though. I haven't played much with the stylus but it is just like the Note stylus and seems to work fine. I've had a couple of issues with Bluetooth to my external speaker. It can cut in and out when there is a lot of CPU activity on other web pages or apps. Also, when I pause the music (using Google Play Music), after a minute or so sound is routed to the Chromebook's speakers instead of to the Bluetooth speaker. I'm hoping Google / Samsung can fix these issues soon. In closing, this seems like a great replacement for the Tab / Note Pro 12.2" tablet, and doesn't require a special case or keyboard accessory.

This is one of the best pieces of technology I have used. It's a tablet and a laptop. The stylish makes for an amazing amount of practical uses. I have a 1k+ MacBook air and I prefer the chromebook. I'm amazed at the quality of Samsung, Android and Google products. This will rival anything under 1200+ in all areas besides gaming and raw computing power. With the customization and "extensions" available the possibities are endless. Oh yeah, and you can use the Google play store, and I can text and literally use my phone from the chromebook. (I have an s8). Add a ln external disc and hard drive, and this is the best thing you can buy under 1200 bucks. Love seeing people on their expensive laptops on campus look over with envy.

I had the old chrome and I loved it. This one however, I can play roblox, its faster, has a better screen view, basically it is a more advanced version and bit bigger too. I like how you can charge it from both sides and that you can charge it easy with the the regular chargers for the cellphone and not have to connect it all the time but you do have to buy another usb hub to use a mouse. One of the easiest computers I have had granted I had chrome already and its fast, and I have used every program I want. Also you can take screen pictures easily and can even just select the section before the screen picture. Another bonus the pen since I dislike my screen dirty however, it has a touch screen so I get the scree smudged anyway. Overall I love it, I do not like microsoft only because it has too many programs I will not use and sometimes I can't even find the one I want to use and mac I just do not like it at all. This one is easy to use none that you do not need and if you need more you can just easily download them they are compatible.

This computer is great. !! You can download apps and still be able to use it like an actual labtop. Minor stuff such as getting an adapter to use usb is a little annoying but it worth it.

Chromebook 123 is good.. but my problem is sometime its hard to connect in wifi.. and when you use it in FB live the camera is like a video you stretch but in normal camera everything is good i recommend that instead using the fb apps you may use chrome to sign in on fb... easy to use and its to light to carry... i will recommend this product to all my friends...

Great all in one love it. Like playing and watching movies.

Samsung did a great job at being the first to have a true integration of an Android Tablet with a Chromebook. Unfortunately the quality of the hardware has crippled my Chromebook. After just 5 weeks of use the video card on my Chromebook is going out. The display has a large gray band of "static" going along the bottom that covers up the program icons and the start menu and there is a another stripe running vertically down the right side. I am waiting for Samsung to send me a return label so I can get it fixed but I truly wish I hadn't purchased this Chromebook. If you look at the attached picture you can see the noticeable stripes. Other complaints I have are a cheap feeling keyboard, a very small backspace key and quite tinny sounding speakers. Samsung should have placed them on the top above the keyboard where this is a lot of space. The body of this Chromebook has quite a bit of flex. It doesn't always sit firmly at a desk but instead bounces around. Don't believe Samsung's claim of long battery life. In reality it is about 1/2 of what they claim. While I am waiting for this to be repaired I'm back to my 3.5 year old Acer C-720---it was a $99 computer but is doing great---battery life outshines the Samsung and the keyboard is acceptable.

watched many reviews and videos on this product was excited about it - Called Samasung they couldn't even help. This device will not let you install Android apps - definitely doesn't work not even in the beta channel. Unit will also not come out of standby have to press and hold the power button for ten seconds - very disappointed in Samsung.
