Samsung Chromebook (ARM) Review

Many people criticize the chromebook for its restricted interface. But to be honest, its not that restricted. If you want it for work like word docs, power points, etc., then this laptop is made for you. It has a great keyboard which has really nice chiclet styled keys.







It is also meant for (duh) web browsing. Here I would like to mention that setting up the connection can be more than hectic. And the notebook won't start without an active internet connection which really sucks. But after that the whole process is quite seamless. In the case that you don't have an internet connection, this notebook is not at all for you. It is a notebook that basically(at least initially) requires an internet connection.(It did give me some trouble in connecting to my Wi-Fi)





I had to go to the nearest Best Buy as I had some problem setting up the connection in my house, Now I have no problems with the device and am infact writing all my articles with it. And at a $249 price tag you cannot go wrong with this thing. I would give it an 8.5/10 just for the fact that it requires an internet connection initially.Otherwise it´s the most value for money notebook till date.




FOR:Good office app, Good battery life, Lightweight, Keyboard, Price, Google support

AGAINST: Needs internet, Not for gaming, Hectic Startup Process


VERDICT: Good notebook and good value for money but may give you some trouble with Wi-Fi. Not a notebook for gamers but for people who type a lot or use Office a lot.
