Review on Samsung Electronics XE500C13 Chromebook Laptop by Greg Baker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality, light, fast and easy

I've had it for two days and so far so good! Arrived on time. Handy for the less tech savvy like me. The step-by-step instructions when first opening it was easy to understand. I was nervous about switching from Apple to Google products because I know my iPhone and old MacBook Air well, but it was an easy transition. The weight and size are perfect when you need something easy to carry; it can fit in my purse! Everything loads at high speed. I downloaded my Spotify and worked on my online classes at the same time. Apps downloaded instantly. Google Docs, Gmail etc. are already pre-installed on your desktop. No crashes, slow internet, or issues with a keyboard not typing like my old Dell. I've been looking for a cheap and good quality laptop for a long time and I hope this is it. I've had no luck with broken MacBooks and Dells. At $143, this Chromebook was definitely cheaper to buy than repair. My only complaint is that I can't find the caps lock key on the keyboard.

Pros
  • Built-in security protects against viruses and malware
Cons
  • Upgradable
