I picked up one of these about 3 months ago, when they were just under $500. This is a very good deal!

Saw this too. Thinking about it instead of replacing my Samsung Tab S4 with a S6.

Any regrets with it? It'd be my first CB. I'd still have a MBP as my primary laptop.

Disregard. This is an old post. And it's the 14inch now at $350

In case you're wondering about the X360 14 Chromebook that's currently on sale for $350, I have one, and it's excellent. You'll be hard-pressed to find a Chromebook with a Core i3, 8 GB of RAM, premium build, a backlit keyboard, and good sound for $350. It's supposed to get updates through June 2025, so still plenty of life left in it.

Yeah, I don't even see the X2 at Best Buy. It's $477 at Amazon now.

How is the app ecosystem compared to the play store?

 

[B. Diddy]

Do you mean how well do Android apps perform on the device? I'm not a heavy Android app user on my Chromebooks, but the ones I've used work fine, including Kindle and games like Williams Pinball.

And the screen is good and bright?

 

[B. Diddy]

Yes. Not as bright as my Pixelbook, but still good. Viewing angles are not a problem, and touch response is excellent.

Thanks. I'll probably pick it up tomorrow.
