    Perfectly adequate for Chromebook.

        One's $1300 and popular amongst creatives.
        The other is $400 and extremely web-focused.

      Ture but one of the benefits of a Chromebook is that you can download many Android apps, but most of them are designed for touchscreens.

  At this price why would anyone choose a chromechook?

    For long term software support as these will be supported for 5 or 6 years!

      If you buy a Windows machine today, it will still run a supported and updated version of Windows for a lot more than 6 years.

      Windows 11 will happily run on a 7 year old PC right now, and will keep on trucking until we eventually get Windows 12.

        I'm so glad that virus built today for Windows 11 will be around in 7 years time.

      ChromeOS software support was extended to 10 years from release of the device.
      Looks like that'll be 2033 for this device.

  Intel i3 N305 is listed as a Windows 11 supported Intel processor at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/mi…

  Perhaps this could actually be set up to use Windows 11?

    Why would you want a 128GB eMMC storage with 8GB RAM Windows laptop?

• 

  artxo on 15/12/2024 - 10:55

  Fair point. Perhaps a low cost machine with more uses than a Chromebook. Just wondering really, and interested in the comments.

  just install a Chrome Flex on ur old windows PC, save $399

  • 

    liquornoodlescabbage on 15/12/2024 - 11:24

    Was thinking the same, or get one of those cheap sub $300 refurbs and also install Chrome Flex. Will be a much better laptop than this manufacturered e-waste.

    • 

      bobokingdom on 16/12/2024 - 13:48

      I don't think Chrome Flex has access to the Play Store. Also, Google Chromebook can run Android Apps.

  • 

    artxo on 15/12/2024 - 12:06

    Good idea. I tried that recently on an old laptop, worked quite well. Annoyance for me was that it doesn't seem to allow many apps from the Google Play store to be installed.

  Google is going to replace the OS with Androids in the future. Mixed reactions, but I'm all for it.

  Cheapest CB plus model I could find on the market. Let down by lack of touchscreen which is essential for Android apps. Great all-rounder otherwise.

  Thanks OP. Seems like a decent price for a Chromebook useful for uni study.
