Pros: - 1080p, backlit keys, decently fast
- battery life seems good, probably get close to or over 8hrs if not 9, watching videos and browsing
- other than the arrow keys, I really like the keyboard and layout. I don't miss the caps lock key one bit.
- runs linux under crouton very well. Apparently dual boot doesn't work with sound yet, but crouton works for me. I actually don't mind the chrome os, coming from almost a decade of linux.
Cons: PORTS! there are only 2 usb-c. It is so thin I understand I suppose. This is honestly the only thing I can say I don't like about it.
oh, the small arrow keys.
Other Thoughts: nicest piece of technology I've ever owned. I doubt you will regret buying it, unless you want to dual boot linux. Then I would check out online but as of a couple weeks ago sound will not work. Crouton only.
EDIT: I had power issues last year, I sent it in for rma and received another unit with a cracked frame and i tiny fracture under the screen glass. Whataver, it worked fine, up until a couple weeks ago when I noticed the screen becoming blotchy. I am now out of warranty on a defective replacement. My guess is a couple hundred for a new screen which almost doesn't seem worth it.
Pros: I use the little guy as mostly an easy carry around when I don't need the extra power, peripherals or screen for some programs better used on Windows OS like CAD. The screen is bright and clear, it is fast and responsive, and has excellent clarity at a surprisingly higher than really needed volume limit.
Cons: I never tried turning on the back-lit keyboard until day 32 after purchase. That's the day I learned that Newegg's warranty period is 30 days so I had to go thru Asus. I sent my machine off to Ontario somewhere and got it back within a week or two all fixed up.
Other Thoughts: I would suggest grabbing a usb-c hub that has any extra peripherals you like using. Being at a place without wifi but having cabled internet will make the purchase price worth it for even just the one time.

Pros: - Great performances
- Amazing materials
- Beautiful screen
Cons: none
Other Thoughts: I use it everywhere. Still like new after more than a year. My favorite piece of equipment!
Pros: -Incredibly thin, light, quiet (fanless)
-Nice small size, so much nicer than using my old 15' laptop on the couch
-Great build quality - much nicer than by previous PC
Cons: -Lack of storage for photos - currently use a micro SD and back up on both Google Drive and a portable hard drive, which is a bit of a pain - would be nice to have more internal storage (a Google Pixelbook would be awesome but way too pricey)
-Don't love the file management system - prefer a Windows PC for this
-my husband struggles with Google Docs
-having issues with my playing my home videos on it, although have not spent the time to try to resolve this
Other Thoughts: As our two Windows laptops were dying, I debated for months as too what to replace them with. Wanted something thin, light, quiet (preferably fanless), and fast (preferably SSD). I also liked the idea of a 2-in-1. To get a Windows PC with all those features, would have cost more than I really wanted to spend, and still would not have been fanless. Was hesitant about a Chromebook, mostly because I have photos that I do not want to lose and do not quite trust Google Drive, but otherwise this Chromebook had everything I wanted for a much more reasonable price than a comparable Windows PC, so took the risk. Overall, very glad I did, although may eventually buy a cheap Windows PC for occasional use, as my husband struggles with Google Docs and would be nicer to manage photos on a Windows PC. If I do though, I know it won't get near as much use as our Asus Chromebook flip!
Pros: Almost everything:
Build quality, Screen, Keyboard (backlight is so nice + good typing experience), Android apps support (PlayStore), Transforms into a tablet, Very fast, 64Gb SSD, good battery life, fast charging (1 hr to 100%), reasonably light
Cons: Haven't found any serious ones.
Personally I'm missing USB-A and full size SD card reader but not too much to say it's a con.
Camera is quite bad - just 720p resolution and photos look even worse than that. Yet good enough for Viber video call
Other Thoughts: I bought it just a week ago hence some surprises may still be waiting for me and also I cannot comment on reliability of this chromebook. I thought 'Play Store in beta' will require a beta version (beta channel) of Chrome OS or some other tricks. No tricks at all! Just when you activate Play Store it shows that it's beta. Chrome OS remains on Stable channel! Android apps work surprisingly well and add a HUGE value IMHO. Sometimes you have the same app in both Chrome app store and Play Store. You may need to try both to decide which one you like more. MX Player Pro that I use on my tablet seems not to support hardware acceleration on this chipset. Installed VLC instead and it works great. Core M3 processor is about 2 times faster that Celerons used in cheaper chromebooks. So it's very pleasantly fast. Gaming: Played Dead Effect 2 on highest settings (console-quality graphics) - excellent smooth gameplay!
Pros: * inexpensive
* easy to learn
* easy to use
* can't 'screw it up'
* doesn't get viruses
* automatic backups of data
* can recover files you accidentally deleted
* your files are available anywhere, on any computer/tablet/SmartPhone
* works with standard formats of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, photos, videos, music
* quick to turn on (11 seconds) & off (1 second)
* runs all day on built-in battery (around 10 hours)
* compact & light weight
* fast access of operating system, programs & data files (has a Solid State Drive {SSD} )
* HDMI output for connection to a large external display or your large-screen TV
* microSD memory card slot to expand internal memory
* 2 USB-C ports for connection of mice, flash drives, & external hard drives
* built-in webcam, microphone, & speakers, & output for headphones or external speakers
* 4 GB of RAM (working memory)
Cons: * doesn't run Windows or Apple programs, but lots of programs are available (most are free) in the Chrome Web Store (Chrome Operating System) & the Google Play Store (Android, under Chrome OS)
* not appropriate for creating/maintaining websites.
Other Thoughts: An excellent computer for beginners, seniors, or children – next-to-impossible to 'screw it up'.
Good support for printers with Google Cloud Printing; automatic data backups with Google Drive Cloud Storage; good compatibility with files from Word + Excel + PowerPoint + PDF's + JPEG pictures + MP3 audio + MP4 video.
As with any laptop, it helps to get an external 23' LED-backlit display to connect to HDMI port, for a much larger & useful display when at home. Can configure it to duplicate what is on Chromebook display, or to be a separate additional work space. (USB-C adapter is available to connect external HDMI device.)
You get 15 GB cloud storage with Google account, plus additional 100 GB cloud storage free for 2 years with Chromebook. After that, if want extra 100 GB, costs $2.79 per month (or 1000 GB for $13.99 per month). Also get local storage for when not connected to Internet. For even more, add up to 1 TB on SD card, or multiple TB on external Hard Drive or Solid State Drive.
If you are thinking of getting this as a gift for someone who will ask your assistance in using it, you will spend a lot less time helping them because it is so much simpler than Windows or Apple O.S.!
All in all, a Chromebook is an excellent 'first computer', or a good choice for an additional computer.
Pros: Fabulous service. Arrived in two days. My first purchase through Newegg. The Asus Chromebook is excellent (make sure you buy a 'touch screeen' Chromebook like this one) you'll be glad you did. Yes, it costs a lot more than other Chromebooks but the flip feature makes it great for working or surfing or viewing in bed or on a couch.
Cons: No cons. Excellent service and product.
Other Thoughts: I would definitely recommend Newegg to my fellow Canadians based on my one and only purchase.
Pros: Good display, very responsive
Cons: Battery is mediocre, and runs down when laptop is not in use
