Samsung Chromebook 3 XE501C13-K01US, Intel Dual-Core Celeron N3060, 11.6" HD, 2GB DDR3, 16GB eMMC, Night Charcoal

Comment

I bought a Chromebook when they first came out. I knew exactly what a Chromebook is for. It is NOT a laptop. The 11 inch screen is larger than most tablets. I cant stand tablets/touchscreen. I prefer a keyboard and touchpad. Very pleased with the quality of this Samsung. It is not fancy. It gets the job done. No complaints. I would buy this again.

This is the second one weve bought for my mother-in-law. (She wore the first one out.) :-) No need for fancy features; she uses it for email, Facebook, and Solitaire. She absolutely loves it. It does only what she needs, and it doesnt take up much room on her desk.

I just got this and so far so good. It lacks microsoft and capabilities of my recently dead laptop. I bought this as a temporary substitute. Im in the process of booking a flight to Frankfurt Germany and need internet access. Only used for 1 1/2 hours so far. Hence the 4 star rating. For the price, hard to complain about.

This no-frills Chromebook is only good for in-house, off-internet projects. Forget about streaming, surfing or Skyping; the power just isnt there. Of course, youre getting what youre paying for: At about $160, youre not going to be able to watch the NBA Finals on this thing. This Chromebook 3s bare-bones nature shows everywhere: a basic 1366x768 screen, a mere 2 GB of RAM, standard 16 GB hard drive, 1.6 GHz Intel Celeron-driven processor, and almost archaic 802.11ac wireless capability. The biggest plusses are its size -- a non-hernia-inducing 2.5 pounds, less than some of my lunches -- and battery life, which Ive clocked in at about 18 hours (the standard for this device appears to be 12). The shell is a solid-enough plastic to take a few jolts from drops and the like, so its not super fragile. Do those things make up for its overall low end status? Not really. But again, its about what youd expect for the price. Given that these devices in general last me about one year before something permanently kills it, that comes out to about 45 cents per day. Guess you cant argue with that.

You get what you pay for (I paid $159). With a Chromebook, you think you know what youre getting, a computer that is nothing more than a basic browser. What is there that could make it slow? I dont know, but this computer is as slow as some of my PCs loaded down with software. Do yourself a favor, you can get a much better Chromebook for not much more money.

I got the chrome book last night and I love it. Its small but works exactly as I need for my use. When I first unboxed, I did as I usually do with computers. I plugged it in and immediately started trying to surf the web and watch a couple of videos. It was extremely slow! Come to find out, you must fully charge the battery first! The directions clearly say that, but I didnt know how critical it was. After a couple of hours, it was fully charged. What a difference! It works great now! I dont know why the first battery charge is mandatory, but for whatever reason it took care of the issue. I am very happy with my purchase
