"Not for kids? But great for an adult like me"
on by jerrysanderPros Battery
Screen
Ease of use
Fast start-up time
Tremendous sync with all your Chrome/Google stuffCons Yes, it feels a little too flex-y
Keyboard is a little mushySummary I bought this for my 12 year old son, hoping he'd like it for school, wireless printing, some games, transfer his music collection to Google Music, have easy portability, etc....He didn't love it. Why? No Minecraft, different version (or none) of familiar games, different interface than the Apple/Mac versions he plays with on his iPod Touch, unwillingness to stretch and learn Google Docs, etc...Just not an easy sell to a 12 year old who likes all things Apple. So...I took it back from him (with no guilt; only after he confirmed he finds it more trouble than it is worth to use and is too different from what he is comfortable with)...and...I really, really like it. Boot-up/fast start-up is at least 3 times faster than any Windows or Mac thing I've used, the screen is bright enough, the keyboard is okay-enough, and it is light, ultra-portable and connected with everything that matters to me -- G Mail, Google Music (with over 12,000 songs on it, for me), Google Docs, Facebook, other apps. It prints wirelessly to my Lexmark printer, I can use it to take notes while people are talking (I'm a therapist), it recharges quickly...What's not to like? If you are lucky enough to still find one to buy, get a 3 year Square Trade Warrantee with it. They've replaced/fixed my old Lenovo laptop twice under warranty, with free shipping both ways. Peace of mind. Thanks Google and Samsung!

"Great laptop for price!"
on by GoogleFanBoyPros cheap price ($249 plus 100gb of free storage online for 2 years), thin, good battery life, easy to use
Cons must familiarize yourself with Google operating system to use effectively (like any new type of computer there is a learning curve).
Summary This computer meets the needs of most consumers. It is fast and browses the internet quickly. Almost everyone uses their computer on the internet exclusively. I haven't used any computer in the last 10 years without internet connection, so it was an easy buy for me. Also, Google provides many programs and services for free. There is no need to buy security software or any other misc. programs. Over the life the computer, most computer users will save a lot of money if they learn to use Google's free ecosystem.

"This laptop is great, there is no limits..."
on by dominichansonPros 1) Good for kids, teenagers, students, adults and even grandparents.
2) The battery lasts a long time.
3) Really fast!Cons 1) Warms up after approx 30-45 minutes BUT, it doesn't get any warmer after that.
2) Can't change the wallpaper.
3) Caps lock is a pain, to turn it on you have to press alt + the search key and turn it off you have to press alt + search.Summary Ok let's get to it, this laptop is fast, meant for all age groups and the battery lasts a long time. It get warms quick but doesn't get any warmer after that, Can't change the wallpaper and the caps lock is very annoying!
I do recommend this laptop as it can be a family laptop BUT, this laptop is extremely small so it annoy parents...
