I have been skeptical about paying over $150 for a laptop whose system mostly works over the web and has limited storage and power. So, when I decided to buy one at last, I didn't expect much at the very beginning. When finally I received it and began to play around its settings, capabilities, widgets and applications, my opinion started to shift dramatically. The laptop is clearly a winner running Chrome OS...and for that price! It wow-ed me! So, a plain technical speaking:- Appearance & Keyboard:The laptop looks and feels quite small--as mentioned, so it's a typical win for someone who travels and moves a lot while having such sexy looks and beautiful appearance. The back of the laptop is navy blue and the interior is a mix of a black frame around the screen, and a silver body (around keyboard) with black bottom. The keyboard is nicely fitting and very-well spaced, very comfortable to type while laying your hands on.- ScreenThe screen is of 11.6" which is quite good for me as I do not like big laptops. The screen is of a very good, and unexpected, quality that makes all kinds of texts and videos very finely readable and watchable. Colors display accurately and glare is very minimal indoor, while somehow average outdoor...still pretty much readable after all.- StorageThe laptop comes with 16GB SSD (internal storage) and a 100GB of free Google Drive online storage for 2 years, which I believe is very well if you are not aiming for much usage, and if your work is mostly online-focused.- PerformanceIf your casual usage depends on using software for writing projects, watching online movies, browsing the web and social networks, checking email or light online web development, then C201 will not disappoint at all! With such a light processor and just 2GB of RAM, it has been blazing fast for 90% of the time. While most of your usage will depend on Chrome Browser, I have never had a problem in having multiple tabs open at the same time (each with a different mid-to-heavy usage website). So, basically if your usage is quite light to medium, this laptop will never disappoint.- Battery LifeHere comes the amazing part--with full charge and say moderate usage (like checking Facebook, writing a couple of materials and browsing the web and emails), you could easily snatch full 9-11 hours of usage. If your usage is not continuous on daily basis, you could even get multiple days out of it. If your usage tends to be heavier, such as watching videos, online gaming and heavy web development, usage could run between continuous 6-7 hours...still not a bad combination at all.- Input & OutputOn the right side of the laptop, there are two USB 3.0 slots, and on the left side, there is the charging slot, memory card reader, HDMI plug, and a headphone jack. Easy-reaching and simple.- Front CameraThe laptop has got a front camera on the upper side of the screen. The camera is somehow of low quality and is barely good in well-lit conditions, while heavily suffers in low light conditions. Be happy to use it, but don't expect too much.- SpeakersAnother low point is the speakers. Their location is quite strange--at the bottom of the laptop, so they are always covered when the laptop sits on your legs or at a table. Apart from the location of the speakers, their sound is obviously low and sometimes even unheard. So, a personal advice is to get a Bluetooth or wired headphones and always use them in case you're listening to music or watching a video.- ApplicationsApplications on Chrome OS simply consist of Chrome extensions. They are perfectly downloadable as applications in the built-in app tray, but the majority of them need internet connection to operate. A lot of applications though tend to have an offline functionality, in which they can be used without an internet connection.Last words, this is a laptop that is worth every penny if you're comfortable enough with the new ecosystem and aware enough of the positives, negatives and limitations of the device.
