Detailed Test Results

Performance: Performance was only fair. Speed was slow but adequate for productivity and Web-based tasks such as word processing, Web browsing, and online game play.

Portability: This Chromebook is not the best choice for traveling. At 6.25 hours battery life was long but barely enough for a full day's work. At 3.5lbs. weight was typical for a Chromebook this size and light enough to carry.

Ergonomics: Some features of the keyboard and case were well-designed, making it comfortable or convenient to use. The full-sized keyboard was pleasant to type on. The power button was well-labeled and in a convenient location.

Display: The display quality was very good overall. Colors were in the ballpark, though not completely accurate. The display was anti-reflective, so there was little or no glare when viewing 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.
