Pros and Cons

Asus Chromebook CM14

Strengths

For $279, this is a good Chromebook for a lot of people
It's thin and light
The battery life will be excellent, maybe up to 11 or 12 hours
Great screen with nice and bright display (300 nits)
Colors look really good and viewing angles are nice

Weaknesses

I'm not a big fan of the outer shell design
Wish they would have stuck with the scratchy plastic I liked better
Speakers are decent, but nothing special (bottom-firing)
Performance is limited for multitasking and demanding tasks
Battery life may vary depending on usage patterns

Samsung Galaxy Chromebook 2 360

Strengths

It has a decent bit of life left with Chrome OS updates till June 2031.
The build feels very robust when closed and looks pretty smart to my eye.
The touchscreen display is really good, perhaps too nice considering the processor and RAM it's paired with.
It's fully convertible, offering a range of uses including tablet mode.
The screen has a 2560x1600 WQXGA resolution, above full HD but not at 4K.
The speakers get loud enough if used in a clamshell set up on a surface like a desk.
It's Bluetooth 5.1 and Wi-Fi 6 compatible.

Weaknesses

The Intel Celeron N4500 processor is from 2021, not exactly the latest.
Only 4GB of RAM which may cause performance issues with heavy use.
128GB of storage (although there are 64GB models available).
Typing experience on the keyboard isn't what I'd call enjoyable due to deep key travel and little feedback.
The touchpad is plastic, small, but feels well constructed.
Performance-wise for a single user, it's okay with light browsing, but may struggle with more demanding tasks.
It would be better if the Pentium Silver from this generation (n6000) was used instead of the Celeron.
