The Samsung Chromebook XE303C12-A01UK is interesting for a number of reasons. It's an internet laptop in its purest form. The screen is big enough, you get a full keyboard and a good WiFi card - everything you need for browsing the web and using Google ...
Abstract: While I saw a prototype unit a couple of years ago at Google, earlier versions of Chromebooks have passed me by. Rather different to a PC notebook and also different from a Google Tablet a Chromebook is a category of its own....
Win a top of the range HP Spectre laptop Too slow, too expensive, too limited. That was the verdict of most hacks and punters on the early Google Chromebook laptops. Google has kept its shoulder to the wheel, though, and recently announced that 2000 sc...
Super affordable, Slim and stylish, Good performance, Generous connectivity, Decent battery life
Poor screen, Rear connectivity is awkard, No touch, ChromeOS needs to be online to be its best
If you're happy with a laptop that needs to be online to get the most from it, the Samsung Series 3 Chromebook 303C is worth considering. It's slim, stylish, light, quiet, lasts a good while on a charge, offers a great typing experience and it's available...
Cheap and cheerful - the Chromebook is a bargain for those who just need a device for basic word processing tasks and to browse the web. We can see why it's taken off in the education market. Despite it appearing to be more secure than the Android plat...
Small, transportable, Google OS is simple, tie-ins with Google Drive and other Google products, price is closer to where it should be
Poor screen viewing angle, no 3G, an occasionally poor browsing experience, limited on-board storage, needs to be online for full experience, app limitations, just not exciting
The Samsung Series 3 may be the best Chromebook we've seen so far, but it still lacks the excitement factor, doesn't look too appealing from the outside and the screen's poor viewing angle is a frustration when in use. Google's OS sure will make sense ...

Ludicrously cheap, Light and comfortable, Excellent keyboard, Chrome OS growing more usable/versatile
Unimpressive screen & peripheral support, Most apps still need web connectivity
Is the new Chromebook powerful and versatile enough to take on conventional laptops or desktops as someone's main PC? It's getting closer, but probably not. Though Chrome OS and its web-based app ecosystem keeps improving, there are still too many limita...
