A sleek and sexy convertible Chromebook for commuters

If you want a nice, simple laptop for watching video, checking email and working on documents, the Asus Chromebook Flip is an attractive option.

The 12.5-inch laptop is the perfect size for carrying around. It barely made a dent in my bag.

It's a 2-in-1 hybrid with two 360-degree hinges.

The design allows you to hide the keyboard while watching video...

Or completely flip it over like a tablet.

It has a metal body construction that gives it a classy look.

The Asus laptop runs on Chrome OS, a simplified operating system that's only fully functional when connected to Wi-Fi.

It's a very slim and lightweight laptop, especially for one in the $500 price range.

There are two USB-C ports and one MicroSD card slot.

Unlike other, cheaper Chromebooks, the Asus has a backlit keyboard.

The screen has wide viewing angles so you can clearly see the screen no matter what angle it's propped at.
