Review on Samsung Galaxy Chromebook I3 Processor Mercury by Oso Mears

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great replacement for my Toshiba

I bought a Toshiba Chromebook 2 (CB35-C3300) in 2015 and it was my first Chromebook experience. I loved this Chromebook, and after only changing the battery once, Google scrapped it because it was too old. Well, the plug for the charging port is worn out, so I think it's just in time. So I had to look for something new. Enter galaxy. I first bought the flagship Galaxy which was an AMOLED screen monster and it just crashed every third time I used it and got very hot so I sent it back. although it was nice. I was very skeptical about the G2, the slim version, but here I am writing a review for this Chromebook I bought three months ago. While the G AMOLED was nice to look at, this screen is really good. and just what i need. I spend most of my time chatting on newsgroups or watching TV/baseball/movies/streaming etc. I send email and a few documents for my clubs but it's minimal. Basically I wanted something with a good movie screen that was easy to work with. So far it's been great. I was a little concerned after reading a review from a person who broke the screen just from opening the laptop, but I didn't notice anything that was different from any other laptop. I open it and log in and within ten seconds I'm doing what I had to do. My Toshiba was just great and a high bar for a Chromebook. This galaxy was a great replacement. I hope I get the full life out of it like I did with Toshiba.
