Pros and Cons

Asus Chromebook CM14 Flip

Strengths

The garage USI 2.0 stylus is a great selling point and easy to use.
It's a pretty versatile device with convertible nature that opens up a number of ways of using it.
Battery life is balanced against performance, allowing for general use throughout the day and into a second day.
The speakers are loud and have good quality, especially when on a flat surface like a desk.
It's great for light gaming and browsing with the Mediatek Compano 520 processor handling games like Real Racing 3 smoothly.

Weaknesses

The build is all plastic and has an extra smooth top that feels unpleasant and attracts fingerprints easily.
Weight is not the lightest at 1.56 kg, making some allowance for the touchscreen necessary.
The webcam is standard 720p and doesn't blow you away, though it does have a manual privacy slider.
The touchpad feels cheap with slight movement when tapping and a bit of noise too.
Some CM14 Flip model options don't come with the optional stylus, even if they support the stylus on their screen.

HP Chromebook x360 13

Strengths

The new mediatek processors are excellent and a very nice match for the Chrome operating system.
It does have a pretty decent GPU on board so I think even on the lower end model you should see some good performance out of this.
The battery life is pretty good on this too if you're sticking to the browser and keeping the display brightness down you're going to get about 10 to 11 hours out of this.
It's a really nice Chromebook for people looking for something that's a little more powerful than the typical Intel Chromebook you might see at around this price point.
The build quality on this was a little better would have been good but beyond that I think it's a really nice Chromebook
Overall, I am very impressed with its performance and its battery life.
It does have a lot of potential especially if you are into game emulation or just Android gaming in general.
Its game emulation performance is excellent, I was really impressed with its game emulation performance we've got the Android version of the Dolphin Emulator running here
The speakers on this one are downward firing and it'll sound different depending on what it's resting on and in what orientation the laptop is in but it doesn't sound bad though it's got a good range of sound
