Samsung Series 5 Chromebook Review
While the the Chromebook is new and we weren’t sure whether to include it or not, it definetely does do some things well. We believe it could make a great portable candidate for a student who needs a basic machine for internet research and word processing. The Chromebook runs on an Intel Atom N570 processor, has 2GB DDR3 RAM, a 12.1” screen, and a 16GB Solid State Hard Drive. This laptop will boot in less than 10 seconds and give you up to 6.5 hours of battery life. All your apps and data is stored on the cloud (internet storage) so this allows you to ALWAYS have your documents. Just 3.3lbs this thing is super leight weight. Connect super fast to wireless-n networks and start browsing. This laptop runs ChromeOS (not Windows) so it is definitely new to everyone. Don’t expect a full PC experience on this, those looking for a traditional laptop with Windows do not apply here! This is a very good inexpensive alternative with some neat new technology that will make all the other students say “what is that!”
