The Asus Chromebook C202SA-YS02 ($229) is crafted with kids in mind and features a rugged design with a spill-resistant keyboard.

- PC Magazine
ASUS C202SA-YS02 holds rugged and durable design, elegant lookup, strong features, superb battery life, spill-resistant keyboard and more importantly comes at a very affordable price. Its spill-resitant keyboard heaps lot of praise from critics.

Great keyboard. Reasonable price. Durable and easy to repair. Very good battery life
- Tech Spot
The C202S also has great battery life. Asus says the 38Whr battery will last up to 10 hours, which is already very good.
- PC World
Battery life is a major highlight. The Chromebook C202SA managed 10 hours 46 minutes; which is way longer than most Chromebooks
- PCVerge
The built-in battery is a 2-Cell Li-Polymer which will power the ASUS Chromebook C202SA-YS02 for up to 10 hours of normal use. That’s more than enough time for any student or young adult to not need a charge during the day.
- Laptop Suggest
The chassis of this Chrome laptop is designed to provide you easy access to the hardware if it needs replacement. The keyboard is spill-resistant and easy-to- type( due to large character-printed keys).
- Best Advisor
Even when the WiFi signal is poor, this Chromebook has a 360-degree WiFi antenna that always offers a strong reception. As a result, students can use it almost anywhere without any issues. Plus, it comes with an anti-glare display and wide-viewing angle to enhance your viewing capabilities. Yet, the fact that it is ruggedized and water resistant offers peace of mind when encountering any potential environment. The student life is rife with surprises. Thankfully, this Chromebook can handle wear and tear.

What reviewers didn't like

A potential downside is that the screen lacks touch capability, a feature that's found in other chromebooks like the Acer R 11.
- PC Magazine
A Little bit heavy among its competitors is a bad note for this device.Display sharpness is not that much effective.
- Laptop Guide
Mixed performance. Lacks touch screen. Heavier than competition
- Tech Spot
Average chip limits it to mainstream applications
- PC World
There is no CD or DVD drive.
- PCVerge
The device could be thinner
- Best Advisor
The 11-inch screen is a bit small for a Chromebook. Also, th eMMC flash storage is inferior to SSD.
