If you ask me, a chromebook is way, way better than an Android tablet. Just buy a large screen Android smartphone and a chromebook and you're good to go.

For your use needs, I think a chromebook would work for you. If you have the money for a Pixel 2, by all means get one, but I wouldn't rule out some of the lower cost (<$500), mid-range chromebooks like the Dell Chromebook 13 (which I'm using to type this message right now) that have IPS...

I personally think the Dell Chromebook 13 (personal disclosure - I own this model and think it is great) would have been a more cost-effective purchase, but you obviously can't go wrong with the Pixel 2.

The simple answer to the iTunes issue is to upload your iTunes music collection to Google Music.

There's one other option that is a step up from the Toshiba Chromebook 2 2015 edition but still much cheaper than the Google Chromebook Pixel 2, and that is the Dell Chromebook 13. The Dell is available in various configurations (Celeron, Core i3, Core i5, touchscreen or non-touchscreen), has...

Hopefully the Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015 model) is working out well for you. I really like my Toshiba Chromebook 2014 model; the primary differences between the 2014 and 2015 models are 1) the 2015 model has a much better processor (a regular Celeron vs a much less powerful, fanless Bay Trail...

Re: how can i convert music from my chromebook to my galaxy edge? Chromebooks are GREAT if you want a cheap, casual internet device and also if you use Google Drive extensively. They are extremely simple to use and pretty fast too. Though chromebooks with fanless processors, including ARM...

I'm not sure why you'd download music onto your chromebook; it has limited hard drive space. Check and see if the music you bought/downloaded is on the Google Play Music app. If it is, you could download the music onto your smartphone from the Play Music app. (If your music isn't on the Play...

Yeah, in many ways I prefer an 11.6" laptop form factor over a 13.3" laptop form factor. However, to my knowledge there haven't been any 11.6" chromebooks released with both a good processor and an IPS panel (1920 x 1080 resolution not as critical because of the smaller screen). I have to say...

Personally I would upload the pictures from the smartphone to Google Drive and then download the pictures from Google Drive to the chromebook. I should note that taking up much of the chromebook's hard drive space with photos may not be ideal. If you merely upload the photos to Google Drive...

I don't really want a super-large chromebook; I often do take a chromebook with me when I travel and want something fairly portable.

Because I like chromebooks, find playing around with at least some computer technology fun, and have some disposable income to spend. Additionally, none of the chromebooks released before the two models mentioned above really hit the mid-range chromebook sweet spot; last year's Toshiba model...

I've been looking at possibly buying either the Dell Chromebook 13 (Celeron 4 GB) or the Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015 model) C3300. It appears these are the top two models in fall 2015, and better than any other non-Pixel models that have been released previously. The big differences are 1)...

I own the 2014 Toshiba Chromebook 1080 HD version (B3340), and it has a truly excellent, IPS panel screen. The 2015 Toshiba model has a very similar, possibly slightly better screen. You won't be disappointed with the screen quality if you buy the Toshiba Chromebook 2 (2015) C3300 (Celeron) or...

Functionally-speaking, chromebooks don't need as much RAM as Windows or OSX computers to function at a high level. I'd recommend getting chromebooks with 4 GB of RAM, but chromebooks with 2 GB of RAM actually work reasonably well in their own right.
