Chromebook Flip C434 2-In-1 Laptop, 14" Full HD Touchscreen 4-Way NanoEdge, Intel Core M3-8100Y Processor, 4GB RAM, 64GB eMMC Storage, All-Metal Body, Backlit KB, Chrome OS- C434TA-DSM4T, Silver

Very good price comparing with ather sellers and matched fully the expectations

This device has major technical issues, Please don't waste your hard earned money

Device extremely slow, takes 10mins to really get going, new functions might take another 5 to complete, lots of hang time, full integration with Google also means word documents aren't seamlessly translated to Google docs and back with formatting retained, not good for work, better for light online only work. Wish I could return. Have one unboxed and unused but have passed the return date.

I have to stress I seldom write reviews. But since I spent quite some time researching for my next Chromebook, I thought I could share some insight hoping to be helpful to future buyers. Considering its charm, build quality, and capabilities this Chromebook embodies the definition of a purchase with tons of value. I received it this morning and I have only used it for a few hours but I could not be happier. I got the 8GB version just to make sure i never have to deal with performance problems while multitasking. An observation: the price fluctuates radically. I bought mine on Amazon for 880 $ CAD. A couple of days later it rose to over $1000. As i write this the 8GB version is offered for $807.75. You will see a lot of opinions online about the many aspect of this Chromebook. The worst characteristic of it in my opinion is the weight. It is surprisingly heavy but I can tolerate that because of everything else it has to offer. Some say the keyboard and the trackpad are a problem. I am OK with both. Yes, the trackpad is not glass but it is not bad. The keyboard works well too. Overall I could not reasonably subtract any stars because of the great value of this machine. Even if it lacks in some areas it has so much more to make up for it. And it is beautiful with these tiny bezels so I do not think anyone would regret buying it.

Excelente portátil, con un sistema operativo que permite trabajar todo desde la nube. Excelente material de construcción, teclado en Inglés pero retroiluminado.

REEAAAALLLLLYYYYY like this one! I'm a veteran of a LOT of laptops over many years, both from work and personal. I wanted: lightweight, good screen, good battery life, good speed, above average RAM, good quality. This one delivers on ALL of the above. It doesn't get hot on your lap, even after 3-4 hours of constant use. I've never had a laptop do that, and it's welcome. The battery life is also FANTASTIC- I've gotten an ACTUAL 10+ hours out of it, which is just crazy. I expected maybe 8 even though they said 10, but it's actually 10. I've never lived full-time with a Chromebook before, but as it turns out there have been no worries. When I haven't known how to do something I just Google it, I've never failed to find a solution to my problem. It sometimes requires an app to be installed, and sometimes that means an Android app rather than a Chrome native one. That sounds like a pain, but in reality it works really well. (I've also enabled the Linux on it, called "Crostini." It's not quite full Linux, but it runs most apps I've tried. Just gives you another option if you want it. I even ran Linux Firefox, and it works fine.) I really like the gestures in Chrome OS, and the keyboard and trackpad on this C434 are both excellent- better than 90% of laptops, seriously. Negatives? The one thing I haven't liked is the backlit keyboard. In low-light but not dark environments (say a dim room), the backlighting makes the keys harder to see, so I end up turning it off. I can turn it up to bright, but it doesn't help me see the keys, it just seems to add more glare. I haven't run into that problem before. As with almost all current laptops, you have to get a dongle to connect external monitors. I got one with USB-C power distribution (PD), Ethernet, HDMI, and 3 USB ports. Works great, and as a bonus it works with Dex on my Samsung phone too. It gives the Chromebook HDMI output to my 27" monitor, works fine (except for multiplying the cabling). Overall I would really recommend this Chromebook. Even though it seems expensive for a Chromebook, you're getting a great keyboard/trackpad, good screen and touchscreen, quality construction, plenty of speed and RAM, a card slot, just everything to make the whole experience very smooth. Oh, and the hinge- well it works great in any orientation, tablet mode, tent mode, or laptop mode. I even used it for a week on vacation where I would sit outdoors by the pool, and I never had trouble seeing the screen. I can't say that about many of the laptops I've used previously. Just overall a really nice piece of hardware, that runs Chrome OS perfectly, and it looks good doing it.

When researching chromebooks I found some reviewers picked on the screen brightness and keyboard. I have an ASUS C302 which has served me very well for the past 4 years. In spite of some of the online reviews I decided to purchase this model. I'm very satisfied with it. The screen is plenty bright enough and the keyboard is very nice to type with. I purchased an ASUS USI stylus for it and found it works very well as a drawing tablet. The fact it has 16Gb RAM means I've been able to run linux and crossover windows. This allows me to run the few specialty windows program I need to as well as some great linux applications. At work we use G-Suite and I've found using this chromebook with G-Suite provides me with the best experience because of integration. I connect it to a USB docking station with 2 monitors and a wireless keyboard which also works flawlessly. It's fast, flexible, quiet and has great battery life. It's also very light so I can take it anywhere with me. I pair it with my android phone with an unlimited data plan so I can connect online from anywhere. It is a bit pricey for a chromebook but if you need USI stylus support, the ability to run android, windows, and linux applications and a device which is light and portable I highly recommend this chromebook. It's solidly built and will provide many years of service.

I dont mind the product a lot but the fact that the touchpad/fingerpad has a significant delay with the pointer, This means I spend too much time correcting and moving back and forth to get the pointer to where I want it. Ruins the whole experience of the laptop without a mouse. Connecting a Bluetooth mouse has better responsiveness as would be expected from the inbuilt touchpad. Disapointing.
