The camera captures mediocre snaps however, the Photo Sphere software lets you go panoramic with excellent results. The speakers are great for everyday use but if you hold it from a side you will cover one of the speakers with your hand. With a 9 hour video playback, the battery has extremely impressive performance.

This chromebook has excellent performance with its 1.8Hz Dual-Core i5 processor, 4GM RAM, 32 GB storage, 1TB online storage and an HD webcam which is excellent for video calling. The worst part about this laptop is the fact that it literally becomes useless without an internet connection which is its Achilles heel, as a free and fast isn’t available everywhere yet!
