      Yeah that's just going to burn battery for little reward. Better off if it was QHD to save power. Heck even FHD would be ok at 13"

      Exactly, no point in having 4K on a 13", it's actually a bad thing for the battery.

      Interested to know too. From the specs, it sounds like it should work. Not sure how it will go with finding drivers.
      Also it might impact the already not so good battery life

    Seems like a very good device if you can get past the poor battery life (~4 hours) and the Chrome OS limitations. Good deal!

    • xoom on 22/04/2021 - 23:09

      4 hour battery life. That's a hell nah. You would think chrome OS of all things would be sipping power not guzzling it like it's going out of fashion.

          Yeah, no idea why people are shocked by the battery life.

          4 hours for 4k and AMOLED is honestly impressive

          While this is true, there is no point in having a 4K on a 13" screen, absolutely stupid design.

    This rather impressive model is likely on clearance as the first Tiger Lake Chromebooks hit shelves today.

    Granted the ones I have seen are not as nice as this, even if Xe is a significant uptick in GPU.

    Nvidia is in the ChromeOS space now. Valve is developing a ChromeOS Native version of Steam. Things are going to get a lot more interesting soon for a lot more people.

      I'm pretty sceptical. People have been talking about the death of desktop Windows for a decade now.

      Splashtop, Express Gate, Windows RT, Windows 10S, Android laptops, Steam Machine, 1000 Linux distros, Hackintosh, etc. None of them have ever lasted.

      Despite the naysayers Windows is the best it's ever been.

      • xoom on 23/04/2021 - 10:29

        dont know if windows is the best. more windows is what more people are familiar with.

                      @moneytomyway: Yea. Usually there are phone only apps and tablet only apps. There are also high end apps that require certain hardware or OS updates. With lidar, apple is now the same. The older, cheaper ipads don't have the functionality of the new ones

          How on earth is it a rip off? As I've stated above find me a similarly specced tablet for $800, and then factor in an additional $100++ for a sub-par keyboard cover. If you had to choosebeween the Galaxy Tab 7 plus and this I'd say this presents far better value.

            @[Deactivated]: Why would you pay $800 for a high end tablet?
            You can get one with a kb for $200-$300 or so.
            Samsung says they will update android for 2 years -thats $400 a year.
            May as well buy a cheap tablet every year for that!

    I'm finding the battery like okay for me despite all the bad reviews. I thought the screen would be amazing and while it's good it's not great. It suffers the fly screen (screen door) effect which I wasn't expecting and is really disappointing. The whole left edge also appears a bit dim. My 7 year old Tab S 8.4 is amazing and is better. 4k YT content looked very good, haven't tried much 4k on Prime and what I did looked terrible, was a dark scene though. At this point I'm happy enough, it's zippy and the simplicity of good for general browsing, email etc.
