Detailed Test Results

Performance: Performance was excellent. Speed was tops for productivity and Web-based tasks such as word processing, Web browsing, and online game play. You'll have performance room to grow.

Battery Life and Weight: Battery life lasted 7.5 hours in a light load of web browsing tests, and 5.25 hours in a heavier load of 4K video playback tests. Results were sufficient to get through most of a workday of mixed use tasks, but not as notable as similar Chromebooks. At 4.1 lbs, weight was heavier than a typical Chromebook.

Ergnomics: Some features of the keyboard and case were well-designed, making it comfortable or convenient to use. The keyboard has large keys and was comfortably sized. Its low contrast letters were difficult to read, although the backlighting can be useful in dark rooms. The keyboard can be folded away, allowing the screen to be used like a tablet. Friction on the touchscreen may prevent fast swiping, and fingerprints may take some effort to clean off.

Display: The display quality was good overall. Colors were less accurately reproduced compared to better displays. The display was highly prone to glare making it difficult to see in a brightly lit room or outdoors. The display has a wide viewing angle, especially important if more than one person needs to see the screen at a time, say, for a video or presentation. Its display produces a smaller array of colors than on most other tested Chromebooks.

Useful features and attributes on this model include: Chromebook converts to a touchscreen tablet to be used as either a computer or a tablet. Its storage space of 512GB is larger than most other Chromebooks, good for storing local backup files. This Chromebook has a full-size HDMI port and full-size DisplayPort for connecting to a TV or monitor.

Downsides: The power supply and chassis are heavier than the average weight of a chromebook and power supply. At about 6.8 ft length, the power cable is shorter than most others, so you'd need to be mindful of power outlet locations.
