  • I understand that there are other options for browsing the internet, on a more powerful hardware for a few dollars more, and can do much more that the Chromebook, but do not underestimate the “it just works” factor. Less is more with the Chromebook. Less...

  • In the end, I find a lot of joy and productivity by using the Chromebook. I am pretty invested in Google's online tools, which makes it a lot easier to jump over to a Chromebook. However, the smallness, lightness, and long battery life make the Chromebook...

  • If you want the fastest Chromebook out there, this isn't it. But, Samsung's little machine is still very capable, and it meets the same needs as its more powerful and higherpriced predecessor, albeit with less horsepower and speed, Over several months of
  • MacBook Air styling is more of a headscratcher than a headturner. Display is lowres and materials are far from topnotch. No keyboard backlight. No Bluetooth device support other than mice and keyboards

  • I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that this could be a primary computer for probably 75% of the population, even though Google tends to market Chromebooks as secondary machines. Most people who own computers don't do anything other than extrem...

  • Inexpensive, Good battery life, Lots of apps in Play Store, Can use some Drive apps offline, 3G from Verizon is available as an option
  • Very little capability when offline, Very limited selfcontained storage, Free online storage is limited and is charged for after size limit is reached, "Free" online storage is charged for after 2 years, 3G option is almost as pricy as the laptop, No Ethe
  • It's easy to be captivated by the Samsung Chromebook. It has many of the same attributes of an Ultrabook including light weight, thinness, an 11.6-inch screen, and comfortable keyboard. Great battery life is another plus. All if this priced less than most...

  • Even after six hours of use, this Chromebook still reported over 35 percent battery remaining
  • The speaker quality is disappointing
  • If you are a Google person and you mainly want a computer to browse the internet and occasionally work on documents, then the Samsung Series 3 Chromebook is a great device. The speakers are disappointing, and the non-backlit keyboard makes it hard to see...

  • Good keyboard and touchpad, Speedy performance, Long battery life, Lightweight, yet solid build
  • Chrome OS still lacks functionality, Not enough offline apps, Display is dim
  • Hardware-wise, the Series 3 is a solid laptop. However, as with all Chromebooks, the sticking point is the software. With this model, you have the advantage of the low $250 price tag. That amount isn't much for a machine that can do basic tasks fairly w...

  • Abstract:  The Exynos 5 Dual performance in the $249 Chromebook is even much faster than what I had anticipated... More Samsung Chromebook benchmarks from Ubuntu Linux are forthcoming once I've completed my own tests -- including examining the power consumption...
