Expert Reviews

What reviewers liked

For starters, this is compact and portable enough to fit into, almost any, backpack, and light enough to carry on your back on daily commute.

That is, it runs multiple Chrome windows, with many tabs, smoothly while also handling standalone Chrome apps for Todoist, Keep, Hangouts, Google Play Music, Slack and Tweetdeck (though not usually all of those at once).

What reviewers didn't like

Take for instance the pricing, it seems a bit pricey, due in part to its 2,400-by-1,600 resolution screen and a premium, metal construction, and the the included Samsung Pen makes a compelling case, worth a look if you have a flexible budget and don’t rely on Windows for day-to-day computing.

- PCVerge

Unfortunately, the Chromebook Pro has a major Achilles' heel: battery life. While it lasted about seven hours in our battery test (which loops HD video at 66 percent brightness), I only got between four and five hours while using the Pro as outlined above.
