mCover Hard Shell Case Only Compatible for Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Go (14" XE340XDA / XE345XDA Series, Aqua)

Product Information

Battery time is based on our own laboratory measurements, and may vary depending on factors such as device settings, usage patterns and operating conditions. In our experience, Chromebooks with ARM processors are significantly slower than those with x86 chips, so it's no surprise that Lenovo's Duet trailed the field, while the Core i5 Acer raced ahead. The Celeron systems landed in between.

The Duet was more competitive in this test, while the Acer Spin 713 dominated again. The Samsung performed solidly, though Android apps are awkward without a touch screen. Memory size: User memory is less than the total memory due to storage of the operating system and software used to operate the phones features. Actual user memory will vary depending on the mobile phone operator and may change after software upgrades are performed. Network Band: The bandwidths supported by the device may vary depending on the region or service provider. Acceptable laptop screens graduated to 1,920-by-1,080-pixel or higher resolutions years ago, but you can still find 1,366-by-768 panels in the 11.6-inch segment. Such a low pixel count means the Samsung won't show fine details, and letters look faintly fuzzy. (As with most Chromebooks, you can dial in lower "looks like" resolution scaling if you want icons or screen elements to appear larger.) Also, the Chromebook 4's antique twisted-nematic (TN), rather than in-plane-switching (IPS), panel technology translates to narrow viewing angles and dishwater-murky colors.Game Pass Ultimate: Subscription continues automatically at regular monthly price unless cancelled.

They may be clinging to life at the bottom of the laptop ladder, but 11.6-inch compacts still fill a niche as ultra-low-budget ultraportables. (Plus, Chrome OS works tolerably on humble hardware, whereas the last 11.6-inch Windows notebook we tried and tested was simply pitiful.)

The Lenovo Flex 3 Chromebook is equipped with the Intel Pentium Silver N6000 processor, integrated Intel UHD Graphics, and 8GB of RAM. These specifications are far from what you'll see in the best laptops, but they're more than enough for your everyday activities because of Google's Chrome OS. The operating system of Chromebooks is web-dependent, so it doesn't need high-end components to function smoothly. It's also equipped with just a 64GB eMMC, but since you'll have access to Google Drive for cloud storage, you'll still have enough space for your files.Whether you’re looking to take home a computing device that competes with the best tablets, or you’re looking for an alternative to the best 2-in-1 laptops, the Microsoft Surface Pro 7+ should be a top consideration. While Microsoft’s newest option, the Surface Pro 9, is meant to take on the Apple iPad Pro, the Surface Pro 7+ is meant for tablet users looking for some great features on a budget. With an Intel i3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 128GB solid state drive, the Surface Pro 7+ is a great value option. All of these combine to provide a responsive, speedy experience, and to provide plenty of storage space for all of your favorite games, apps, and digital content. Finally, to test a laptop's battery life, we loop a 720p video file with screen brightness set at 50%, audio volume at 100%, and Wi-Fi disabled until the system quits. If the Chromebook's internal storage isn't big enough to hold the video, we play it from an external SSD plugged into a USB-C port.
