  • Unbeatable price. Slim and light. ARM processor provides zippy performance without sacrificing battery life. Physical keyboard and clamshell design.
  • Offline access and storage is still limited. Keyboard comes with a learning curve
  • The Samsung Chromebook Series 3 (XE303C12) laptop delivers what we wanted from Google all along—a cheap, portable way to get online, with nothing getting in the way....

  • Samsung’s Chromebook XE303 is one of the cheapest laptops you can buy. But it’s an incredibly capable little machine for a $249 laptop. It’s thin, it’s light, and it feels very fast — even if it doesn’t actually have as much raw processing power as man...

  • Extremely low price, 100GB of Google storage for two years included in price, Excellent keyboard, Light and slim
  • Limited functionality when away from Wi-Fi, Battery life should be better, Screen has viewing-angle issues
  • Its functionality is still limited (though improved), and we wish the battery life were longer, given the low-power CPU, but Samsung's $249 Chromebook is an enticing low-cost, productivity-focused alternative to netbooks and tablets for those who do thei...

  • The move to ARM doesn't fundamentally change the performance or usability of the Chromebook. It's still a slow (relative to more expensive notebooks), limited use notebook. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but you need to be aware of what you're gettin...

  • It’s no secret that Google is aiming to create a whole new segment in the world of portable computing with Chrome, and here with the newest Samsung Series 3 Chromebook, especially at its eye-opening $249 price point, it appears that the big G will make...

  • With this new Samsung Chromebook, though, Google has finally achieved a compelling and complete lineup of Chrome OS choices. At a starting price point of $249, it's a fantastic value - especially when you consider the included two years of expanded Go...

  • The Samsung Chromebook is a lightweight, thin, and inexpensive laptop for those times when all you need is a powerful browser
  • The Chromebook's low price comes out in its build quality and performance
  • The $249 Samsung Chromebook is a good extra computer for cloud-loving Google-centric Web users.

  • Abstract:  Lisa Gade reviews the Samsung Chromebook Late 2012 model. The Chromebook sells for $249 for the WiFi model and it's available now. This is the first Chromebook with an ARM processor, and it's a Samsung Exynos dual core ARM A15 CPU with 2 gigs of RAM and 1...

  • Cheap, Light, Simple to use, Secure, Reasonable keyboard
  • Web apps only, Some build issues, Lacklustre screen, No 3G option in the UK, Insufficient power for HD or gaming
  • We've always liked the promise of the Chromebook idea. Traditional computer users will sneer at it, despite its low price. They'll use phrases like 'full-fat operating system', 'no local storage', 'just an ARM processor'. They'll ask what use it is when i...
